Brwne Byte Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I love movies, and I currently have 2 fictions I am writing about two of my favorite movies.(They are taking forever to finish but...) Anyhoo, I am wondering why there is so little movie fanfiction writers I see? If anyone is interested, reply if you wish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayDee Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 I have three stories in the movie section. Two based on Star Wars, and one with Predator as a central theme, as well as some other characters that have appeared in movies, but also none movie characters. I suppose a difference between movies and TV is that you often only get to see characters for 1-2 hours in a movie, where as on TV you have 12 or 13 hours a season, and sometimes more. Given the amazing business Titanic did, I am surprised that there are not more fanfics for it. I believe it is still one of the highest grossing movies of all time, if not the highest.

Brwne Byte Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 There are a lot of films that should be made into fanfics, like Titanic, that nobody's doing anything with. There is so much potential for great stories in these classic films. I think there should be a website only devoted to movie it would get much attention.

Terri Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 I know I have one on my FFN account, but I haven't really been able to come up with many for AFF - though I am staring down a bunny right now so that could change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBlackadder Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I have eight. Half of them are "The Patriot" fanfictions and the others are "Pirates of the Caribbean" fictions . . . . Okay so they are centered around the bad guys because I always think the bad guys get a bum rap. So!? Eitherway, I'm your Movie fan fic gal. Right here. I also have a nineth that there wasn't a place to post it for in the movie section so I had to post it under the book section. It was based on the 2003 "Peter Pan" movie, but they insisted that all fictions written in the Peter Pan relem are apparently book fan fiction material. Either way. Here I am.

Brwne Byte Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Great! Yeah, I love bad guys, so that's no problem with me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PretentiousArtWhore Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I usually only write movie fics, for vampire movies mainly, but yeah there should be more movie fics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brwne Byte Posted February 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 With all the cult classics out there, one would think so. I'm going to work on putting more out there too, it takes time but it's worth it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider One Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 I recently saw a movie called Gabriel that I was wondering why hasnt anyone snatched it up and done some FF with it as the interaction between Jade/Gabriel and Lilith and Sammael is gold..

Brwne Byte Posted March 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 There are some good ideas out there, that need to be nurtured! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest darkinferno Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 I have one in the Movie section, in the Underword catagry. Although I'll write a story for pritty much anything that is not against my rules, I like to be inspired before hand and it's not easy for movies to enspire me in this fashion as they are so closed in.

djackgirl Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Movie fanfiction writers! Yay! I just found this section. I write "King Arthur" fanfiction in the movies section, so far I have only one story up on here but the rest are on FFnet and I am slowly transferring them over. I started a Lord of the Rings movie verse fanfic but I sorta moved to incorporate the books to it nowadays that I'm editing it. I tried Pirates of the Caribbean but I couldn't form a solid enough story to keep it going at the time. I am a huge movie lover! Heck I even make mini AMVs at the moment while waiting to start film school (Yes cause DJ that sounds so interesting and not dorkish in the least) Haha. I get upset when some fandoms, like King Arthur for example, have so few a following. A whole fanfiction site dedicated to some of these movies would be the best thing ever. I found that as the years pass, if it isn't something overly huge the fandom can slowly start to wither- NOT a good thing in my opinion as they are great places and have some amazing and entertaining work.

nofairytails Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Yay, its great to see so many people interested in movie fanfiction. Movie fan fics are the only ones I do. Since the movies are generally only up to 2 hrs long I think it gives you more leeway and a chance to be more creative. Right now I'm working on an Iron Man fic and that'll be my project for a little while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djackgirl Posted November 15, 2010 Report Share Posted November 15, 2010 Haha, I love Iron Man, Robert Downey Jr. did such a good job as him. Number two wasn't so great but I liked it cause Mickey Rourke was Whiplash ^.^ I'll definitely check out the fic when you put it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
girlyhero Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 There are tons of movie writers, they just don't use the forums it seems. I don't know if it's because they don't have a forum membership or if its because they aren't sure how to use it. I know alot of writers were told to not ask questions at the end of their chapters (opinions on stuff and polls on what should happen next, ect.) to get answers in their reviews because it was clogging up the Archive server; and yet, no one has set up anything. I've been trying to promote the forums in my story at least to cover the overload issue. I think also, no one know how to really set up a good thread for their story. Like I'm starting a trilogy, and the first story would be discussed in "general" because there's no sex, but the second would be elsewhere. The only reason I haven't started a thread is because no one seems all that interested in my story. Then again, those that get the readers don't start threads either.

Lord-of-Altair Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 I'm a Dark Crystal fanfic writer, however, my Dark Crystal fanfics are not for the squeamish nor the faint of heart. And yes, they involve the Skeksis. I know the Skeksis aren't generic pretty boys, but they need more attention, plus, think of all the possibilities and perverted things the Skeksis can be capable of.
