Fandom problems
oh god, the CA: Civil War trailer is out. I knew this was going to happen and I still don't know what to do about it. The options are, I suppose, watch it and spoil myself (hopefully not too badly), or hide in a cave until May. Although everyone on my flist has been excellent about cutting; it's mostly Tumblr and similar places that I'm worried about.
I have lots of things I should be doing, but all I really want to do is write EVEN MORE ridiculously self-indulgent h/c for a series only a couple of people on my flist have read, none of whom (I suspect) are into precisely the same subset of characters that I am, at least not in quite the same way. (Which, by the way, there is nothing wrong with; I just think it's hilarious that I've taken the world's tiniest fandom and basically managed to make it EVEN TINIER for myself.)
Maybe I'll go make tea and see if it's easier to be useful with caffeine.

The one thing that annoys me, though, I how everyone is already arguing about who the villain is.
I constantly feel like reminding people that trailers are, by nature, misdirecting (and guys, these are two minutes of images taken out of context. Two minutes out of a 2 hour movie. And Marvel likes to play with the expectations of the fans.)
Good luck remaining unspoiled. :)

And, yeah, I know trailers are misleading and there's probably a lot in it that will be different in context! Honestly, avoiding the endless fandom arguments from now 'til May is as much a motivation for me in not watching it as avoiding the spoilers ...
