Fandom can be beautiful. In the best situation, there is nothing better than a shared love for your favorite movies, shows, games, or books. Knowing that there is a community full of people with similar ideas, I want to discuss, create and change imaginative virtual universes into something bigger.
On the contrary, modern fandoms can be tremendously toxic and expected by the original producers take irrational ownership and riots compared to the virtual characters whenever they are out of expectations. Every time I talk to the show runner, I can't help all the pressure they need to have as a creation shepherd who has claimed his claim.
In the case of Guinever Knights of Guinevere, the producer Dana Terrace is burned for a funny charges of phobia after confirming that he is a CIS woman rather than a transgender, as many fans of the show are hopeful and internalized.
It's too early to conclude the guinever article
The first episode of the new show of Glitch Productions was broadcast earlier this month and was watched more than 11 million times in YouTube at the time of writing. It is a hit and already extends the product with thousands of fans who dissolve all single frames of the pilot for additional information. This also means that viewers fall in love with characters and desperately expect to learn more about people like Frankie, Andi and Titular Guinevere.
Such excitement is contagious, and you can't wait for more in this show in the next few months and years. But as mentioned earlier, investing in fandom has already become tired after unnecessary debate last week. When asked if the terrace was intended to be recognized as a trigger, she replied: “Frankie is CIS. She only has a lot of nicknames.
This is at least at least a decisive and non -aggressive answer. Frankie was not a transgender woman, but he was a cisgender butch woman who was willing to spit in the face of women's customs. Unfortunately, the short characteristics of this answer resulted in terrible results, and a small sub -set of fandoms suddenly false with the excitement of seeing a trans character star at the animation show, and it was suddenly false.
If Knights of Guinevere introduces queer characters and/or story lines in the future episodes, it will not be surprised. Besides, shouldn't we already celebrate a lot of casts instead?
Some chronic online tumblr posts are broadcast only after a single episode, and then draws a tremendous irrational assumption of the guinever knights of guinevere and the character. They point out that everything that happened to Frankie is a transformer so far, and I think that the development that does not convey the promise is evidence of phobia. It is a funny concept that somebody, like Dana Terrace, writes the story of a character we do not know beyond what the pilot covers it.
Frankie is not a transform, but it doesn't mean she can't be a great character.
The discourse seemed to be developing for a few days across fandom, and the mountain of false information about Frankie's personality and terrace's intentions spread. Last week, the end of the terrace responded to the debate about Bluesky.
“I feel like my answer to the question was very wrong. I see you see her as a trans a transformer. I talked about the PPL, and I saw the connection, and I did not oppose HCS in my career. Why do you start now?”
Terrace added: “I'm sorry when the reply is too short or a casual answer. It's not my intention, but it's absolutely valid and wonderful to see Frankie as a transformer. I always like to see people taking it out of the story.
Like the terrace, I understand the beauty of the head cannon. Many people have a comfortable character that grows especially close, and they have a deeper identity because they have little to do with Canon definition. Many LGBTQ+ people saw Frankie in the pilot and saw some of them. I saw some of her appearance, horses, or what happened in her life. They are valuable things, and how the actual show describes her character should not escape from what head cans mean to you.
Gravity Falls producer Alex Hirsch tweeted that “90%of Twitter's problems treat virtual people like real and real people,” and will be cursed unless they summarize Guinever's Knights. People have an emotionally deep relationship with the fictional characters and attached to them that it is easy to forget that real people are responsible for their creation. Therefore, if the future episode dare to dare to take her story in a new direction that has not already determined Frankie or asks uncomfortable questions, I am worried that this will happen again.
The terrace and the company have just started a very successful indie pilot who just talked about dark, mature and introverted stories we had to congratulate. Instead, fandom's large minorities decided to claim ownership of Guinea Ber Knight, despite the fact that there were single pilots. Unfortunately, these attitudes in fandom are abnormally common, and random discourse is inevitably leading to good faithful creators because time and time continues to come to mind and are misrepresented about what they have never done.
In Disney, the terrace and her team spent several years in pursuing queer expressions in the owl house, so Frankie feels terrible, terrible and shocking that she blames transformer because she is not a trans a character you are in your head. As a trans a woman, it would have been hell like hell to see Frankie adopting such an identity. But is it the end of the world that she doesn't do that? Not hell.
The Knights of Guinevere is a great show with many potential, and it is annoying to see some bad eggs in fandom dominate the discussion with such bad faith. Everyone who is more responsible for what we love is worth better.
