Plz talk to me about the Shamer Chronicles, the fandom is nonexistent, I’m dying. Also did you hear they’re making another movie? It’s based off the third book, and is set to come out in early 2019.
Oh for sure, seconded! There was a liiiittle bit more going on back when the musical came out and just before the movie did, but… there isn’t a community around it.
I’ll be honest, I’ve never even gotten around to watching the first movie. I know I’ll be annoyed so I keep putting it off, lmao. Not surprised to hear they’re jumping to the third one, though. Everyone always wants to get to Sezuan - not that I blame them, but I do hope my son Davin gets to have his arc, too.
One of the reasons I’m too annoyed with the movie to have gotten around to it is the casting of Dina and subsequent “let’s smear dirt on her face for the posters so she looks vaguely like the book cover where she’s portrayed as a person of color” thing and now that they’re doing The Serpent’s Gift, I fear what they’ll do with Sezuan. He’s pretty heavily Arab-coded in the books iirc so if they cast a white dude to play him that’s……….. shitty.
But yeah. The four mains are my children whom I love and I’m always willing to talk about them. There should be a lot of fannish stuff under this tag. And now I want to reread again, lmao.
EDIT: Oh, and I have a gallery with shamer art here. Mostly old stuff, but yk. If you’re interested. Also take requests.
