Sudden "rush" of readers for my stuff on AO3. Curious to think I'd be benefiting, so to speak, from the new movie, but I have to assume that's what it is. Anyone else seeing an increase in readership action?
I've seen a slight up-tick this month, but that's only in terms of kudos (as you get an email whenever, so it's easy to compare) because I don't really keep an eye on anything else.
I'm currently writing a mid-length movie fic on the kink meme so it'll be interesting to see what happens with that when I post it on AO3.
What's interesting is the amount of interest the movie has stirred regarding the TV series. We have new writers showing up doing an excellent rendition of Solo and Kuryakin as we know and love them.
I have to admit I'm getting a lot of traffic in both ff.net and AO3. King from UNCLE has gone crazy with prompts and people are rising to the cause. It's sort of great to see all the new influx (although there are some stinkers mixed in).
Yeah, I'm getting more kudos and counts for most of my UNCLE stories on AO3. Only one comment on the Madhouse, though. I imagine most don't know about it.
The new readers seem to be slash only as far as I can tell from my stories--which makes sense as the film fandom seems to be all shipping all the time.
Yeah, there are still good movies. But they tend not to hit the 10-Plex at the Nanuet Mall :)
Formula is comfortable, for the studios as well as the audience. It can be used in clever ways, but it usually isn't. I can enjoy a film/book/tv show on its surface level if pushes the right buttons, but I also have this urge to dissect underneath that, just to see why/why not it works. English lit major, we're such killjoys ;)
The two main women in the movie come off quite well. Underwritten, but not sex objects. There's an obligatory sex object for Solo to play with, they couldn't help themselves. But it's a very short scene and weirdly unsexy.
