1) Comment with one of my fandoms.
2) I'll answer with one or a few of my unpopular opinions about/within that fandom.

I'm can't sleep and I'm bored. Amuse me if you're around!

Disney :D

Oh my god, this is something I never really thought about since I barely dive into the fandom (some Disney fan I am!), but here I go.

1. My first fictional crush was Kocoum from Pocahontas (I was a kid!). He was loyal to his tribe, he was a good warrior, and he meant well. He wasn't a villain, and that's what made his death extremely sad to watch. :/

2. Since Pixar is technically Disney nowadays: my favorite Pixar movie is Cars. :| Apparently a lot of Pixar fans don't like the movie? At least that's what I heard. I'm not sure why I love the movie so much. I think it's the "finding yourself" message that really got to me.

3. As terrible and contradicting as the Mulan sequel was, I actually liked that one princess Mei/Yao together. They were sweet and she liked him despite his height. I would've liked Ting-Ting/Ling, but they drastically changed his character to Comedian Man who tells awkward jokes when he wasn't even like that in the first movie.

4. i-i ship redeemed!Gaston/Belle in AU fics DON'T HURT ME THAT IS IT, I THINK.

Teen Titans :)

Ooh, THAT, I can go on and on about all day. I'm going to discuss the toon; I know the comic version pretty well, but I love the goofy cartoon much more.

1. Starfire > Raven. I couldn't stand Raven in the first two season because her fans always complained about how bubbly and stupid Starfire was. My dislike grew even more when Robin/Raven fans started bashing the shit out of Starfire in season four, and still do. Which was wrong at the time, I shouldn't have automatically disliked her because of that, but I still can't bring myself to love Raven as much as I do Starfire (and Terra, that goes without saying).

2. Out of all the minor characters, Gizmo and Lightning are my favorites. They're supposedly the most annoying characters on the show, but that's why I like them. :|

3. I thought Jinx turning good was the lamest move ever. Not because she did turn good, because I like her both ways, but because of how they did it. To me, it would've made more sense for Cyborg, a guy that previously knew Jinx from Hive Academy and briefly dated her, to "save" Jinx from the life of villainy. This isn't even about a shipping preference (I do ship them, btw); it's more about consistency than anything else. Kid Flash was fine on his own, but I can't get beyond the fact that he was only brought in to get Jinx to leave the HIVE Five. :/ And if they weren't going to do that, then they should've at least had Jinx come to that conclusion on her own without a boy telling her what the right thing is.

4. I hate how Blackfire was handled in the show and the TTGo! Comics. She's awesomely devious, but she's devious for no good reason. When the comics just simply said, "oh she was jealous because starfire was prettier and she couldn't be ruler of tamaran because she was a girl lol", I was annoyed. I didn't expect them to stay with the original reason (Blackfire was "disabled" by Tamaranean standards and born during a time of war, thus being an outcast and letting Starfire get the approval from her people), but I was hoping they'd come up with a reason better than what they gave us.
