Looney Troon

Read up a bit on the upcoming Flannagan Carrie series and ngl, it seems promising. I understand the concerns about the accuracy to the source material and the changes he plans on making to the story for the show, but also I kind of don't understand them because... it's Mike Flannagan? Same guy from The Haunting of Hill House which is a masterpiece despite having nothing to do with the source material besides the themes and character names?

Most people know that Carrie was fat in the book but she's never been portrayed on screen by a fat girl, which makes the pig blood prank fall much flatter. But I'd like to give a different example on fat erasure on screen: Meg from Little Women.

'You don't do makeup for yourself' tell that to trans women and alt women and literally any woman who does makeup because we enjoy the process and not the end result.

'Reggaeton is sooo sexist they constantly degrade women in songs how can you like it and be a feminist' Mick Jagger beat Marianne Faithful and Lindsey Buckingham is known to have been violently abusive to both Stevie Nicks and other of his girlfriends. Many male rockstars have had relationships were they abused their partners verbally and physically, while singing about how beautiful women are in the kindest most respectful way possible. Many of them have also abused their power to get with underaged girls who we still call 'groupies' to this day. And John Lennon famously sang about imagining people living in peace and love while he was beating Yoko Ono.

So what kinds of work do we consider Bible fanfiction. Is all media that features biblical themes or characters a fanfic? Or are there guidelines?
