Things like that Game of Thrones petition always seem so ludicrously entitled to me, because they speak to a fundamentally different way of being a fan of something, or of being in the fandom for a show/film/etc. It's as if these fans think they've entered into some kind of contractual arrangement with the creators of the show, the terms of which mean that the creators must produce an end product that is pleasing to all the intensely invested fans, and if they end product isn't pleasing, the creators need to make a new one that satisfies the fans.

Whereas, well, I was rewriting the endings of my favourite childhood books since I was about eight or nine years old whenever I felt unhappy with where the authors had chosen my favourite characters to end up. When I discovered transformative fandom years later, I realised I'd found a whole community of people who thought the same way about their favourite works of fiction: the original material was a starting point, and they as fans were in conversation with it.
