First off, as you read Brooker’s final chapters, be sure to checkout some Star Wars fan films. TheForce.net has a huge collection, and I’d particularly recommend Troops, which he discusses at length. This link has a number of “slash vids” that are more typical of the female fan community he profiles. Also, the “Chad Vader” series is great – episode #1 is below:

Please post any questions you have for Will Brooker here by Monday night at midnight our time – I’ll ask him to reply Tuesday morning in the UK, so hopefully some responses will be waiting for us for class.
(Note that posting a meaningful question for him counts toward your online participation requirement, as does the discussion questions for Tuesday…)
