WISHLIST

X-Men: Logan aka Wolverine - Characters: Book/Movie What can I say? *g* When it comes to adamantium claws, I'm a hopeless fangirl. Wolverine is the character I have written most in fanfiction. He's the guy I have a four-foot-wide poster of on my wall—and he's probably the only character I'll ever go to watch on a theater screen again. X-Men: Henry McCoy aka Beast - Characters: Book/Movie The third X-Men movie was quite disappointing to me, but the one thing that vastly exceeded my expectations was Kelsey Grammer's wonderful Beast. This character fascinates and inspires me. I love his combination of intellect, humor, and raw animal power. X-Men: Kurt Wagner aka Nightcrawler - Characters: Book/Movie Although he's only in one of the movies, Kurt is my second favorite character. I love his faith and his gentleness, and I love the idea of a demonic-looking character with a beautiful soul. He also happens to be half of my "One True Pairing" in the X-Men fandom (Nightcrawler/Storm). X-Men: [+] Male Characters - Characters: Book/Movie Male characters are always the ones that hook me into a fandom, and the X-Men are no exception—as you can see from my other wishlisters! Even the ones who aren't specifically on my wishlist intrigue me. I've loved exploring all of their lives and stories in my fanfiction. X-Men: [+] X-Men - Characters: Book/Movie I love heroes. More than that, I love teams of heroes that work together for a common cause—and care for each other—even as they struggle to work out their own unique and complex personal challenges and relationships. The X-Men are everything I could ask for in that. Dracula by Bram Stoker - Literature This is the wishlisted fanlisting I want most of all. Dracula is, simply put, my lifelong favorite book. I love the story, the characters, the genre, the classic film adaptations. More than that, to me it is the ultimate tale of good against evil, and that's what I love about it most of all. Galaxy Quest - Movies As a reformed ex-Trekker, I admire this movie a lot. It pokes fun hilariously at every scifi standby there is; but it also manages to make time for some very real and poignant character development. The growth of Tim Allen's character from has-been to hero is quite inspiring to me. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Movies There could not be a much more fascinating premise to me than a steampunk crossover of Victorian heroes. LXG doesn't quite do it the justice it deserves—but it's still one of less than half a dozen movies made in the last decade that I'm a true fan of, and my second most prolific fanfiction subject. X2: X-Men United - Movies This is definitely my favorite non-classic movie. It brought me into my most active fandom, and I'll always remember the way it helped to give me the best summer of my life. (In lieu of this one, I wouldn't mind having the fanlisting for the first X-Men movie, but I'd much prefer X2.) Dragons - Mythology I've loved these wonderful creatures of the imagination ever since I was a little girl, when I spent lazy afternoons under an orange tree reading Walter Dean Myers' The Dragon Takes a Wife. Since then, I've spent plenty of money I shouldn't have on dragon figures and dragon jewelry. Werewolves - Mythology I've really become quite fascinated by werewolves in the last few years. I'm always interested in movies and stories about them—but even more importantly, I've been taking great enjoyment and satisfaction in writing werewolf characters. I actually find that they're more intriguing to me than vampires. Hogan's Heroes - TV Shows I've been a fan of this show for a number of years, and the single fanfiction story I've written about it is still one of the best things I've written. I'm one of those fans who sees so much more than just the comedy of the show; I love the underlying loyalty and courage of the Heroes, too.
