Meme: Do you know my canon?

[the_ghoul]

We've got a bunch of new characters and I'm home sick so we're gonna do a meme we haven't done since 2022.

Ping in with your canon (as specifically as you'd like for giant insane comic, SW and MCU stuff). Then wait for other people to ping in with their canons! If you're familiar with it, tell them! And then, yay, new people to squee with!

Comments

Fallout

[the_ghoul]

TV show or games. I'm easy.

Re: Fallout

[my_own_advocate]

I have a massive Nuka Cola girl ad poster hanging in my house, I think that says enough.

ETA okay fine a little more: one day I'll snap and app Arcade Gannon, probably. Or Piper. But I have also seen the show and love it.

WandaVision

[scarlet_chaos]

Lemme get specific here.

Re: WandaVision

[single_man_tear]

My top favorite of the MCU TV shows. It hit me on multiple levels with the parodying/tributes to sitcoms through out the years and then tying it in with Wanda's background and then finishing it with an ending that I truly loved.

9-1-1

[firehousehimbo]

Come for the tsunamis, stay for the gay.

Re: 9-1-1

[suitably_heroic]

You're the reason I stalk the Tumblr tag for it now but it's on Disney+ here and I cannot be bothered to get an account for that. Do I get at least quarter points?

The Umbrella Academy

[knife_bender]

Last season is in August and I'm begging you, Netflix, to stick the landing.

Re: The Umbrella Academy

[suitably_heroic]

I will finish watching this down to the last episode. Afterward, I will wonder why I spent that time on it.

Sometimes my viewing habits are a mystery even to me.

Lucifer

[my_own_advocate]

We don't talk about season six here.

Re: Lucifer

[single_man_tear]

I found the show because of Lucifer being on the island. And I'm in agreement about Season Six.

Knights of the Old Republic

[suitably_heroic]

It's basically its own little enclave of Star Wars, anyway.

Re: Knights of the Old Republic

[scarlet_chaos]

I've played both games! Have I finished both games? .........no comment.

Control/Remedyverse

[weirderthanthou]

Since Remedy is determined to shove all of their past properties into one game-imatic universe at this point, we're talking at least Alan Wake and Control here.

(And Max Payne and Quantum Break with the file numbers torn off.)

Re: Control/Remedyverse

[scarlet_chaos]

Love this weirdass universe.

The Magicians

[not_a_goddamn_princess]

Cynical grad students meet magical fairytale world meet reality.

Re: The Magicians

[single_man_tear]

I binged this show a couple of times! But then Netflix put it behind a paywall so I can't watch the last two seasons. Grr.

Magic The Gathering

[deathsmajesty]

I don't even know how to try to limit this.

Copper tier: Have you not played or read anything specifically, but absorbed enough from looking at the cards, watching other people play, and/or interacting with the D&D crossovers Strixhaven, Ravnica, or Theros (including watching actual plays) to have a some level of understanding of my nonsense canon?

Bronze tier: Have you ever played Magic or read any of the books from before Lorwyn and the introduction of the Lorwyn 5 in 2007, aka, my girl and a bunch of chumps? (This is unfair to Ajani and sometimes unfair to Chandra, but I stand by it.)

Silver tier: Have you played any MTG from Lorwyn on, and/or have you read any of the lore? Basically, does your knowledge of the lore and game extend beyond 2007?

Gold tier: Have you read, either of your own volition or because I am a terrible friend, Weisman's War of the Spark: Ravnica and/or War of the Spark: Forsaken?

Re: Magic The Gathering

[suitably_heroic]

My brother used to be massively into Magic in high school and I played a few games against him plus I spent a few hours playing the old video game.

I have absorbed absolutely zero of the lore.

I think that means I am on the coal tier.

Shadows of the Otherside

[afraid_of_marshmallows]

All books here!

Re: Shadows of the Otherside

[wildgalegirl]

I read the first one and bought the next two, but haven't gotten to them yet! Loved it!

MCU - Thor

[needsacatchphrase]

Gotta specify. Even if she wasn't in one of the four movies.

Re: MCU - Thor

[firehousehimbo]

Fully admit to not have seeing them all, but I've seen a couple.

Supernatural

[single_man_tear]

15 years of canon varying from drama to outright wacky.

Re: Supernatural

[firehousehimbo]

SPN had me seasons 1-5. After that I just heard secondhand and tbh it was for the best.

Baldur's Gate 3

[aroughtempestiwillraise]

It's just a dating sim with a little combat.

Re: Baldur's Gate 3

[my_own_advocate]

I really wanted to love this game but every time I get back into it JAHEIRA IS TRYING TO HEADBUTT FIVE THOUSAND DEMONS TO DEATH AGAIN I WILL NEVER ESCAPE THIS GODDAMN SAVESCUM CYCLE

Delicious in Dungeon/Dungeon Meshi

[sailor_meshi]

Either seen the anime or read the manga?

Spoilers: I finished the manga yesterday and had to thousand yard stare a bit. But, like, instead really good way.

Fuck my emotions, I guess.

Oglaf

[doesdoctorstuff]

Have you read my very ridiculous, NSFW comic which, surprisingly, was not the canon from which I introduced magical - ahem - rings to the game?

Re: Oglaf

[my_own_advocate]

My favorite comic that I can't look at while I'm at work.

MCU - Ms. Marvel/The Marvels

[slothbabyproductions]

Is it too early for student newbies? Guess I'll find out.

Re: MCU - Ms. Marvel/The Marvels

[not_a_goddamn_princess]

I am still cranky Carol never got a second movie to herself but Kamala made me much less angry when I watched it.

[anomaly_research_nerd]

Primeval- Older BBC show :D

[knightinshinarmor]

The first . . . three seasons I want to say? I couldn't keep up with all the cast changes and gave up after awhile.

[alwaysonguard]

Haven- really not more to say than that other than "why do people still live in this town?"

[my_own_advocate]

THIS IS WHAT LUCIFER WANTS TO KNOW.

Sherlock

[begmetwice]

Come for the update to the classics, stay for the gay....eventually leave, probably because of the queerbaiting but also the bad writing overall?

Re: Sherlock

[my_own_advocate]

I still regret ever recommending this show to people back in S1.

The Boys

[defenderofdesmoines]

I still don't know how much of season 4 I'm gonna watch.

Bonus points if you ready any of the comics! I ragequit them!

Re: The Boys

[scarlet_chaos]

Genuinely enjoyed seasons 1 and 2 and then gave up during 3. But Jensen was the highlight.

I still want Wanda to explode Homelander and then be like "THERE. I TOOK CARE OF IT."

Sons of the Fallen

[carbsliftthespirit]

Just kidding. I would never make anyone admit to having read these books in public.

The Scandalous Confessions of Lydia Bennet, Witch

[mustbeawitch]

A Pride & Prejudice variation.

Re: The Scandalous Confessions of Lydia Bennet, Witch

[deathsmajesty]

No, but it's now on my to-read list if that counts for anything!

Thor (616)

[ifwebeworthy]

Kickin' it old school.

Re: Thor (616)

[imafuturist]

I did lose the knife fight to you for this specific run of Thor.

The 100

[okteiviakom]

Post-apocalyptic YA that turns less YA as the seasons go on and most of the main cast's actual ages become apparent.

(Also there's a person doing a rewatch on Tumblr right now and I agree with them hardcore about how spectacular the show could've been with more focus on the Blake siblings.)

Re: The 100

[the_ghoul]

Watched it, apped from it, failed at apping from it.

MCU - Captain America/The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

[shapethecentury]

Civil War should not have been billed as a Cap movie.

Re: MCU - Captain America/The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

[scarlet_chaos]

I've only finished two MCU shows all the way through and this was one of them.
