Taking on the meme/challenge here.
Fandom Snowflake Challenge #3
Despite society’s insistence otherwise, the beliefs and opinions that we hold about things change over time. We thought it was important that we reflect that (and perhaps laugh at our previously ill-considered opinions) with this challenge.
In your own space, talk about a fannish opinion you hold that has changed over time. Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment here saying you did it.
My fannish writings have been almost exclusively focused on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but my fannish interests are somewhat more widespread, so this time I’ll go outside BtVS.
For years - decades - it was a holiday tradition with me and my kids: every Christmas, we’d watch Die Hard. Sometimes we’d watch BOTH of the first two movies. We happily argued against everyone claiming it wasn’t really a Christmas movie; heck, that was part of our tradition.
And then one single meme changed it all for me:
Sorry, folks. There’s no way to refute an argument that convincing.
