Fan Expo Anaheim Special Edition was a mixed bag, with a lot of competition and not much time to plan
by Moonlight_Fox Like Fantasy, this is a genre I was around basically my whole life and is hard to pinpoint a first exposure. Maybe the 1990 reruns of Thunderbirds when I was 5? T...
by JLongden I was young. Very young. Probably 3 or 4. As to what my first experience was? Got me. It was a little over a half century ago, and those details are lost to time like...

by VanillaCokeMule Ah, if 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea counts (which I've always felt it does), then it would be that book, around the age of 7 or 8. It gave me a taste for unders...
by leroy43 I was given The Fellowship of the Ring as a birthday present when I was ten, but I couldn't get into it. I probably ran into fantasy via some teevee show, but the SF st...
by agorski Not sure how young I was, but by the time I was 13 I had read every SF novel that my local public library had. The library also showed films on Saturday of those old se...

My first day of #alaac26 started bright and early, with a scenic drive from Pittsburgh, PA to Chicago, IL! After roughly 7 hours in the car, we arrived to slightly overcast skies a...

by leroy43 I have a vague memory of a book about kids building a rocket or space ship that took them to Mars, but I was very young. I did see a lot of the original Star Trek in sy...

Music has been a love of mine forever. I remember lying on my bed when I was seven or eight years old, listening to FM radio and later being enthralled by music videos, watching wh...
by chuckdee68 I don't even know mine. It's just been there, it seems. Probably something anime/cartoon adjacent. I know loving to run home from school to catch Robotech and Star B...
by JLongden Probably the Rankin/Bass Hobbit in or around '77. I was, and am, more of a SF guy though.

Forget the fantasy. This is not Cannes with yachts and sunglasses pretending to be cinema. Your first time at Raindance 2026 is going to be a lot different. This is where filmmaker...
