Story goes to my understanding, Chris would have been Bane's right-hand man or such. But since he's something like 6'4 and Tom is about 5'11, the Big Guy obviously did not look big enough so his part was cut besides that one scene.

I remember when Stargate had more entries on fanfiction.net than anything else: before Glee, before Doctor Who. I'm sure the only contribution to the world from this episode is 10,000 mpreg fanfictions.

When some actor who plays a character that the shipping community has decided is gay (even if it's canon that they're not) enters into a heterosexual relationship with another actor in real life, they'll get death threats from the shipping community over it.

Yeah, it was Supernatural. They sent death threats to the main actor's wife when she was pregnant. And with Sherlock, Benedict Cumberbatch has a whole lot of psycho stalkers.

wasn't it an on-going joke early on in the show that every time that asked for a motel room, the hotel manager thought they were gay lovers or something? That probably got it started.

As a response to that kind of fan behaviour, the Supernatural writers introduced a self-insert character called Chuck, who writes a book series about two Winchester brothers called Sam and Dean, and who really can't handle his weird fanbase.

Sam:"They keep writing stories about us...you know...getting ~together~"

Dean: "And these people know we're brothers? What is wrong with these freaks?"

The meta episodes were some of the best just for the sheer amount fun they had mocking the weird part of the fanbase.

I'm trying to understand the thought process behind the whole "shipping" thing. Maybe I'm wrong, but it looks like it's this:

step 1: send death threats to the actor's pregnant wife
step 2: ????
step 3: actor is now gay

It's basically

1. Reality conflicts with the shipper's fantasy.

2. Externalize the blame for this dissonance.

3. Express emotional frustration towards the subject of the fantasy, who is now viewed as responsible for the conflict.

It's basically some form of delusional mental illness.

This but the reality in number one isn't reality but a fiction all its own, which is an important distinction as the former characterized the shipper's insanity as vaguely based in reality, which is very much not the case. At best it's the reality of show canon these weirdos are distorting to their deviant fantasies.

Well I was talking about when they threaten people like actor's wives in real life. Which is different from getting mad that about what the character does in the show.
