New Fandoms Will Be Introduced in TheFandom.net Site!

| Leave a comment

thefandomlogo-withslogan-02-small

Last night, TheFandom.net had their first ever live hangout session in which we got to talk about the movies that are coming up for some of our fandoms that we have on the site.  However, one of the most exciting news to come from the hangout happened near the beginning of the hangout, where we revealed that we will be adding more fandoms to the site in the very near future!

A little after the 4:20 mark, I get to announce which fandoms will be getting their own fandom site, which are listed right here:

  • Daughter of Smoke & Bone (book series by Laini Taylor)
  • Graceling (book series by Kristin Cashore)
  • Legend (book series by Marie Lu)
  • Shadow & Bone (book series by Leigh Bardugo)
  • Sherlock (BBC TV Series)
  • Supernatural (The CW TV Series)
  • Under the Never Sky (book series by Veronica Rossi)

As to the reason we chose each series, it’s really just a matter of the quality of the books and the TV shows.  They either have a certain unique quality about them, either through the story that’s told, through the characters that we learn of, or both, and we’re very excited to give these fandoms an opportunity to grow on the site and expand the fandom to many other people who are looking for new books or shows to gush over.  We hope you agree with us when you do get a chance to learn about each one of them.

You can watch the rest of the hangout episode below:

I’ll send you notice when the new fandoms have been integrated into their new homes!

TV Guide’s Crazy SUPERNATURAL Predictions for the Season Finale, Titled “Sacrifice”

These here are some CRAZY Predictions!  But when it comes to Supernatural, crazy is normal, so you never know when one of these make actually hit right on the dot, or at least very close to it.  Check them out below and let us know what you think!

Sam and Dean cure Crowley. The Demon King has become such a key part of Supernatural since his introduction in Season 5, that it’s hard to imagine the show without him. Unfortunately for us Crowley-lovers, all signs are pointing to his downfall. We know that the Winchesters plan to cure Crowley in order to close the gates of Hell and if all goes well, that would leave Crowley alive, but human. Of course, he is still the son of a witch so Crowley might maintain a few of his more nefarious traits, but I wouldn’t complain. I’d love to see Crowley pop up now-and-then as a bitter, human antagonist next season.

This one certainly isn’t that far-fetched from a hypothesis, but then that would mean that Mark Sheppard might not be on the show anymore, at least with his smarmy wicked ways.

Metatron isn’t to be trusted. Metatron claimed that he had completely separated himself from the angel world, yet he seems to have caught himself up mysteriously quickly. How is it that he had never heard a whisper of the Winchesters or Lucifer’s imprisonment, but knew how to find the world’s one and only nephilim so fast? I’m not buying it. While I don’t think Metatron is working for Naomi, I do suspect he’s only the latest to manipulate Castiel’s (Misha Collins) good intentions for his own purposes.

One thing I’ve learned from the show – no one is to be trusted!

Abaddon will take over as Big Bad. If Crowley is cured, that would leave a big opening down below and Abaddon is just the demon to take over! The series has only ever had one female Big Bad before, so why not let us ladies show that we can do bad just as good as anyone else. Plus, the role Abaddon played in their grandfather’s death would make the fight against her personal. Avenge your grandfather! Avenge the Men of Letters! Avenge, avenge, avenge!

Yeah, this is possible.  For how long remains to be seen.

The gates of Heaven and Hell will close. I, for one, am very excited about this prospect. While closing the gates of Heaven and Hell would drastically change the show, I think that’s exactly what Supernatural needs after a season that has been more than a little uneven (Did we ever get closure on why Sam didn’t look for Dean? Amelia — that happened. Why?). By closing the gates, only a finite number of demons would be left on Earth for Sam and Dean to hunt. And while I have nothing but praise for the way creator Eric Kripke completely revolutionized the show’s mythology in Season 4, I would love for Supernatural to get back to the basics, such as “saving people, hunting things, the family business.” Isn’t that what Supernatural’s all about? With Heaven and Hell’s roles diminished, that would allow the series to put more focus on Sam and Dean’s relationship and return to its folk-lore roots.

It would make things interesting for those angels and demons left on earth, I suppose…. which brings us to the next prediction.

Castiel will fall from grace. Maybe Castiel is the key to safely curing a demon as strong as Crowley, since his inherent good would be able to cancel out Crowley’s evil. Or maybe Castiel loses his grace for betraying the angels in favor of helping the Winchesters. Either way, if the gates do close I expect we’ll see Castiel stranded on Earth. Though, I refuse to believe that if Castiel is stranded, he’ll maintain his full angelic powers. That’d just be too easy for the Winchesters. And as much as we all love Sam and Dean, we also love to see them suffer — if only to cheer them on each time they overcome.

In my eyes, Cas pretty much fell when he decided to declare himself God.

Sam will become an angel. Okay, maybe this is a little far-fetched. But as we know, the trials aren’t killing Sam, they’re changing him. The question is: Into what? This season has been all about redemption — something Sam has struggled with since the Yellow-Eyed Demon corrupted him in his cradle. Will the trials finally allow Sam to achieve the purity his demon blood has denied him? If so, what’s more pure than an angel? Of course, I don’t want Sam to become an angel, but if it’s between sacrificing his humanity and sacrificing his life, I definitely prefer the former. Then again, maybe Sam won’t have to sacrifice anything at all (yeah, right).

I would say, um, no.  But I won’t, because.

Needless to say, there’s going to be a lot of things that the fans would want wrapped up by the end of the season.  More than likely, some questions will be answered to make way for more questions for the next season.

Let me just say one final thing about this episode – I find it quite funny and awesomely coincidental that both Supernatural and the show preceding it, Arrow, have named their season finale “Sacrifice.”  It pretty much suits both shows.

Marc Guggenheim and Andrew Kreisberg Answer ARROW Fan Questions

Yes, Microsoft Surface found a way to show us how their technology can work for the everyday writer in your family by getting the producers of Arrow, Marc Guggenheim and Andrew Kreisberg, to answer fan questions (using MS products), including what we can look forward to in Season 2.  Check out the videos below, using, you know, whatever you have!

 

ARROW EP Andrew Kreisberg Teases Everything on First Season Finale

| Leave a comment

Executive producer of Arrow, Andrew Kreisberg, gives us some things to think about as the first season is about to come to a close, but basically, for all his answering of questions, the ultimate response is just to watch the season finale.  With that in mind, check out what he has to say about Tommy Merlyn’s future, Roy and Thea’s relationship, Oliver and John’s bromance, and Malcolm Merlyn’s realization of who the Hood is:

After witnessing the Laurel/Oliver tryst will Tommy’s broken heart propel him down a much darker path for the 2nd season?
ANDREW:  Tommy’s broken heart will put people to a very unexpected place. There have been the fans waiting for Tommy to turn to the darkside and then there are fans that are hoping he won’t.  I think in the finale, the way things lay out, people are going to be both surprised and, we hope, gratified at the path that Tommy takes.

So Tommy could be taking a path of his own choosing and he may not be choosing the light path or the dark path yet?
ANDREW:  Everyone in the finale is faced with a choice and I think Tommy’s choice is one of the more interesting that we have come up with.

Oliver is of course going to be keeping this big secret from Laurel as he’s probably not going to be telling her about his secret identity any time soon.  How long can their romance last in the face of that challenge?
ANDREW:  (Laughs) I don’t know. They got away with it for a pretty long time on SMALLVILLE.  I think Season 1 has proven to the audience that we’re interested in defying expectations. So in Season 2 some people may find out Oliver’s secret and it may not be who people are expecting; but at the heart of the series is the Oliver/Laurel romance. So if her finding out sooner rather than later is the most exciting and dramatic way to tell the story, then that’s something we’ll pursue.  But if her being none the wiser serves our purposes, then that’s what we’ll stick with.

What about Roy and Thea? We saw their painful breakup in the last episode. Is there going to be any hope for them or is Roy going to be determinedly following his own path?
ANDREW: The Roy/Thea relationship is something we’re really invested in and it’s something we’re looking forward to playing with moving forward.  They’re crazy kids. They say things they didn’t mean.  They have some great scenes in the finale that we’re really excited about.

One of things we’ve noticed is there are a lot of raging hormones on the show and you are not afraid to go there. What would you say is the next coupling that people should keep an eye out for?
ANDREW:  Good question.  I don’t think there’s any new couplings in the finale that are going to surprise people, but we have some ideas for Season 2 that we think will be some jaw-droppers.

The other big shocker was the hood coming off and Malcolm Merlyn discovering the identity of Oliver as the Hood? How does that bode for Malcolm?
ANDREW:  It’s all personal now.  It’s one of the things we’re proudest – how we designed this season and that we hit upon Malcolm as the ultimate villain. It’s Shakespearean since he killed Oliver’s father. There’s that vendetta to settle.  But they have all been family friends for so long.  I think Malcolm’s reaction at the end was the most telling. He wasn’t necessarily happy to have beaten the Hood because when he discovers its Oliver, his first reaction is “oh no,” because now he knows he may have to kill his son’s best friend and it’s already broken his heart to have to kill Robert. He doesn’t want to cause Moira or the Queen family any more pain – but, as always, Malcolm’s pain comes first and that could have dire consequences both for the city and the Queen family in the finale.

Rumor is that there may be a big death in the finale. Is that going to be happening? Are we going to have hold our breath?
ANDREW:  (Laughs) You don’t really want to know, do you?  My wife watched the last episode and she said, “I haven’t felt like this since we watched ‘24’ together.”  So that made me really proud.  I think people should tune in for the finale.  It’s definitely a game-changer and I think people are going to be shocked by the outcome—and that’s as much as Warner Bros., DC, and my own conscience let me say.

Getting back to ARROW, what part is Diggle going to play in the finale?
ANDREW:  It’s a real nice culmination of Oliver and Diggle’s friendship from over the course of the season. When we started they were wary of each other and very distrustful and they have had several falling outs over the course of the season. But it’s really nice to see them come together as friends and partners in the finale.  The character of Diggle is something we’re so proud of because he’s not from the comics and he’s really our own invention.  He’s become a fan favorite and now you almost can’t imagine the Green Arrow without his trusted friend and bodyguard, John Diggle.  I think that important status in Oliver Queen’s life really is cemented in the finale.

ARROW Season Finale “Sacrifice” Preview

| Leave a comment

arrow-preview-s1e23

I have a feeling that this season’s Arrow finale is sure to leave us hanging on the edge of a very steep cliffhanger.  With just the title of the episode, it already gives you a clue to how dire things are going to be.  Check out the season finale preview below, episode titled “Sacrifice.”  Of course, the question is, will we get to see more of John Barrowman‘s Malcolm Merlyn, on the show after this, or will Stephen Amell‘s Oliver Queen take care of him for good?
