yuletide | 2022 Yuletide Promo Post

Welcome to the Fandom Promo post, everyone!

Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign-ups!

Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!

NEW: We've made a register! There is now a searchable Google spreadsheet index of the canons promoted on this post. Go ahead and add yours or any you see that are missing! We hope this helps connect people up with canons of interest to them.

Here are some areas you can cover:

Where to find it:
(If giving links, please only link to legal sources. You may want to encourage people to contact you directly if they are having trouble finding a canon and you can give them tips)

What is it, in summary?:

What do you love about it?:

What sort of things are you likely to request for it?:

Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?:

Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence):
This is at your discretion and is not expected to be comprehensive

(Bonus options: What are you thinking of requesting for this? If you're thinking of nominating worldbuilding, what sort of worldbuilding topics might people explore?)

Useful tip (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):

- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.

Title: Score: A Hockey Musical

Media: film

Approx length: 90 minutes

Where to find it: Available in full on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTdv4lAzvHE&ab_channel=NFIComedy

What is it, in summary?: Y'all. This is the WORST movie. It's SO BAD and I love it SO MUCH. I wrote a full promo post on tumblr, with gifs, here: https://whetherwoman.tumblr.com/post/188037972671/an-ode-to-the-best-worst-movie-score-a-hockey but uhhh to attempt to sum up... it's a musical... about hockey...?

What do you love about it?: It is just BONKERS, all the way through. It starts out bonkers and it gets MORE bonkers.
1) The rhymes. My favorite is baloney/zamboni, but brain/Herculean is way up there too.
2) The star studded cast. Olivia Newton-John plays the mom. Theo Fleury and Nelly Furtado have cameos. John McDermott sings O Canada for the opening credits.
3) The homoeroticism. You know how hockey is frequently homoerotic? This has a shower scene, and a half-naked tattoo on ice, and a song literally titled "Boyfriends".
4) The EARNESTNESS of it all. Usually I have a pretty strong embarrassment squick, but somehow this movie overcomes that just because everyone on screen is just having so much FUN, all the time.

What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: Farley/Moose locker room shenanigans! Everybody/everybody locker room shenanigans!

Content warnings: Blink and you miss it brief throwing up on screen, a nonconsensual kiss one of the characters treats as consensual, the songs are REALLY bad.
