Fandom Promo 2023!



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!

EDIT: WE HAVE A SPREADSHEET! Thanks to Jaclynhyde we now have a spreadsheet you can access HERE.




Here are some areas you can cover:

<b>Title</b>:
Please put your fandom's title in the subject of your comment, too. This helps people find your promo again.

<b>Media</b>:

<b>Approx length</b>:

<b>Where to find it</b>:
(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)

<b>What is it, in summary?</b>:

<b>What do you love about it?</b>:

<b>What sort of things are you likely to request for it?</b>:

<b>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?</b>:

<b>Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence)</b>:
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.

The Family Stone (2005)

[personal profile] klutzygirl 2023-09-17 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Title: The Family Stone

Media: Movie

Approx length: 1 hour, 43 minutes

Where to find it: Amazon Prime, MGM+, YouTube, Vudu, Google Play

What is it, in summary?: Everett Stone brings his uptight girlfriend Meredith Morton home to Connecticut for Christmas so she can meet his family. He wants to propose to her. However, everything that can go wrong does - the Stones don't like her - and it gets even worse when Meredith calls her sister Julie in for back-up.

What do you love about it?: The relationship between Meredith and Everett's brother Ben is the best part of the movie, and I adore absolutely everything about it.

Content warnings: Terminal illness (cancer), mild instances of homophobia and ableism (which is immediately called out)

I just remembered I saw this back when it came out! I don't remember a ton about it (It was 18 years ago!) but I do remember Meredith.
