starladyDear Equinox-er,
First off, thank you for making me a vid! I love vids, and quite honestly I would be happy to see a vid in any of these fandoms. I have suggested music for some of them, but please don't feel bound by what I've suggested, and I have no qualms about oft-vidded songs, either. And while a lot of these fandoms are very close to my heart, I will be very happy to see vids for them regardless of anything.
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
The one with the whales is, unsurprisingly for a movie I first saw when I was ~4 years old, a movie by which I have defined my life at various points: "even in our own world, sometimes we are aliens." I also now live in the Bay Area, and this movie made a whole other level of sense to me when I moved here--though it's so much a completely vanished San Francisco that is preserved in this movie, which is another thing I think about it a lot now too. Anyway, FRIENDSHIP and everyone being GREAT, I love them all, please and thank you.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
I love this show. It is my favorite Trek and also the one that I think is best, haters to the left. Having rewatched it recently, I was struck by how the show just has a set number of themes and keeps reiterating them, except every time they go back to something they've done before it is darker and more horrible. There are so many potential through lines that could be vidded, particularly the politics and the war storylines, but I would also just love anything because I love all of the characters, even the ones I love to hate like Kai Wynn and Weyoun. Oh, Weyoun.
Star Trek: Voyager
I have fewer strong feelings about this show, because i fell off watching it halfway through and I still think it's remarkably inconsistent, but I love the characters, particularly the women. I also strongly feel that Doctor/Seven should have been endgame and I would love a vid for them. But I would also love vids for them separately, or a Janeway vid, or an anything vid, really.
Rogue One
I loved this movie a lot; I think it's actually probably my third-favorite Star Wars movie, which is saying a lot for someone who wore out two separate sets of the original trilogy on VHS and saw TPM ten times in the theater. (I should mention: this is a prequel hate-free zone, though you're right, the writing and directing were terrible, because George Lucas.) And I liked that it was hard, and bleak, and the hope at the end is hard-won and fragile. So any kind of vid about that, and how it's the Star Wars movie for our moment now, would be great.
That's it from me. You may also find my star trek tag relevant; my star wars feels are mostly on tumblr.
