#occasionally if im especially attached to some characters ill do some silly headcanons

i just realized that since i actually deliberately AVOID cartoon fandoms most of the time, having a cartoon blog on the fandom website probably isnt a good idea

#my enjoyment of cartoons tends to be like #disconnected from the concept of fandom? #like i dont want to get into headcanons or fic or anything #i want to discuss the media as it exists #and i want to pick it apart and criticize it #and in the case of the turtle franchise #i have been having so much fun comparing each version as i watch them #and seeing which version did what better #what changes between them #how different each take on the story is #from what ive seen theres a lot of hostility between fans of different versions though? #which has me kinda worried that if i post praise for the 1990 movie and criticism of the 2012 cartoon in the same day #ill be accused of talking shit and trying to make people feel bad for liking the 2012 on or something #but yeah with every cartoon i like (not just turtles) #it’s been a lot of me rambling on discord to my partners about like #the writing the animation the voice acting etc etc #occasionally if im especially attached to some characters ill do some silly headcanons #my enjoyment of cartoons is usually very isolated though #it’s kinda like my pony doll collection? #idk how to explain what that means but #i collect information about cartoons the same way i collect pony dolls #instead of it being like. transformative
