A lot of my unpopular fandom opinions in the past (in past fandoms, that is) involve unpopular opinions on fan fic that is considered truly great. And frankly, people don't actually want constructive criticism on their stories/characterization/etc. I started my fandom experience off many many many years ago in Homicide: LOTS on a group called Autofocus which would really tear into fics posted (in a very good, constructive way, but they were very critical). And I thought this was how is was done. If you didn't think the characterization worked, tell the author and tell them why, etc. So I guess my unpopular opinion is that I truly wish there was more open discourse on fic and that actual concrit was welcomed because I do have some unpopular opinions on popular fics and yet if I post my reasons why or offer my opinions, they are dismissed or I'm defriended or I'm looked at as having attacked someone when I'm truly not. I guess that is why so many people post anonymously, but I don't see the value in that either.
Well that probably didn't make much sense and wasn't what you were looking for :)
