Nominations Brainstorming!
Nominations will begin in close to a week, running from June 24 through July 3.
The purpose of this post is to promote your smaller fandoms (to help ensure they make the cut), or to organize nominations for fandoms with multiple continuities (as in which fandoms can/should be combined as a larger umbrella fandom). Or, you can just chat with others about what fandoms you're nominating or hope will make it to see if you can drum up interest.
For a refresher, here's how nominations will work:

Or, you can just chat with others about what fandoms you're nominating or hope will make it to see if you can drum up interest.
For a refresher, here's how nominations will work:
- You can nominate up to eight fandoms.
- We will automatically approve the top 100 fandoms with the most nominations, though it is probable we will approve more than 100 fandoms. (Last year, we had 128 fandoms in the tagset, and will likely reach or surpass that number, based on participation.) While there is no magic number of nominations a fandom needs to make the cut, as we base it on participation, your fandom will likely need at least two nominations to make it
- Sign-ups will require a minimum of three fandoms that can be crossed with each other in each individual request, with six fandoms maximum. (You are required to make at least three requests, with five requests maximum.)

At the very least, my usual standbys of National Treasure and Push will get spots from me. But now I have to figure out the rest?
no subject
Okay, what I really want to ask for is Ava interacting with any of the clones from Orphan Black. But I think there's a lot of potentially interesting crossovers here.
no subject
Ex Machina would go so well with a lot of sci-fi fandoms!

I also have both too many and not enough fandoms I want to nominate. Ones I'd like to see in for sure:
Highlander: the Series
Forever
Psych
Leverage
Wolfblood
Houdini & Doyle
I'm also all for any of the versions of The Tomorrow People, though I think interest has finally sailed on all of them.
ETA: I'd also be really interested in The Listener, if there's anyone outside my little circle who's heard of it.

It's a Canadian sci-fi show that feels somewhere between Farscape and Firefly. Bounty hunters in a system with a really corrupt governing "Company," politics and snark. I love the worldbuilding and characters SO MUCH, and they'd crossover well with both sci-fi and superheroes pretty easily.
Come on! Only 10 episodes to catch up on, with new episodes starting this July. Here's a behind-the-scenes intro, which gives you a good feel for the show without spoiling things.
no subject
-The Hunger Games
-The Chronicles of Narnia
-Greek and Roman Mythology
-Harry Potter
I'd also be excited to see any of Pokémon, Kingsman, Dragonriders of Pern, Person of Interest, and Puella Magi Madoka Magica.
(Tomorrowland still has cool stories in it! And I've had Ex Machina on my to-watch list for a while.)

Shadowhunters (TV)
Hit The Floor (TV)
Starsky & Hutch
I'd also really like to nominate some Western Classics,
Silverado
Once Upon a Time in the West
The Young Riders or The Assassination of Jesse James
Pat Garrett and Billy The Kid
open for others depending on what people might want to second?
also, White Fang, because young Ethan Hawke deserves to make out with alllll the rugged men.
no subject
Also, really excited for this fest! I'm hoping to see some more animanga and video game fandoms get in. Not quite sure which ones I plan to nominate just yet, though.
no subject
I'll happily second Pokemon, for example.

Forever (TV)
Highlander: The Series
Horatio Hornblower (books and miniseries)
Other than that, I don't know? There's so many to choose from. Ones that have run through my mind are X-Files, Quantum Leap (both of which cross over with just about anything), Star Trek TNG, Ripper Street, Doctor Who, Torchwood, Lucifer (TV)...

On just a this would be fun note, I would like to nominate The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Corpse Bride, and The Book of the Dead. Kids' movies with a heavy emphasis on death! Mostly brightly colored!
The Mummy series of movies, and The Librarians tv show would be a fun cross. You'd probably get people who would also like Indiana Jones, though since my friends have never carried through with their threats to tie me down and force them to watch the series, I've only seen bit and pieces and The Last Crusade.
I'm sure I'm forgetting other things.

Forever (TV)
Supergirl (TV 2015)
Limitless (TV)
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend (TV)
Miraculous Ladybug
Though based on what everyone else is listing, I may only get Forever in!
Other things I've written more than once for recently:
Star Wars: Rebels
iZombie (TV)
Brooklyn Nine-Nine (TV)
Is there any interest in any of these from anyone else?
no subject
I am not sure what I personally would like it crossed over with (though it might be fun to see a realisation of Bloom's suggestions for the characters' Harry Potter houses) but more is always good (and you've reminded me I should go check the tag when I have reading time again).

Currently considering
Young Wizards (Books)
Back to the Future (Movies)
Edge of Tomorrow (Movies)
Beyond Belief (Thrilling Adventure Hour)
Small fandom waving:
Beyond Belief (podcasted radio show about 2 drunk socialite detectives of the supernatural being charming and completely in love. Werewolves! Vampires! Baby-sitting! Musical numbers! Drinks! Available in whole on podbay.)
Dark Matter (TV) (oooon Netflix Streaming! It's a show about a used future, and specifically a group of amnesiac heroes who might just be the villains. Lots of moral ambiguity and fun character moments, though it takes a few episodes to warm up.)
Does anyone have preferences? Or other things that would match up well? *puts chin on hands, and Thinks*
no subject
- Bleach
- Pokemon
- Fullmetal Alchemist (AMT, though any version is fine by me)
- Psycho-Pass (aka the dystopian society AU)
- Log Horizon (aka trapped in a game AU)

?! Battlestar Galactica (2003)
?! The Dresden Files - All Media Types
?! Falling Skies
?! Black Sails
?! Veronica Mars - All Media Types
?! X-Men (Movieverse)
?! The X-Files
I've scanned through this post and can't see any coincidence for any of them except Dresden, Xmen and X-files, but FINGERS CROSSED that someone else will be overcome by the incomparable beauty of Revolution and/or BSG, who own my heart at the moment.
