Not really, considering having Victoria P. in the other thread claiming comic-verse folks don't show interest in movieverse and yet hearing that only six of seventy-odd movie-verse authors who voted didn't bother with the comic-side at all rather irritated me. So if that's the claim of offense movieverse folks have, I would think they'd try to set a good example rather than "Do as we say, not as we do." =)
I can't speak for other movieverse folks. I voted for (almost) all the categories that were X-related. If I'd read one of the stories before awards season, I went and I read the others before voting.
The only categories I didn't vote in were non-X related, because well, I don't read any Batman or Authority or whatever fanfic. Sandman, otoh... There isn't much Sandman fanfic out there, which is probably a good thing, and a whole different LJ entry.
My claim of bitterness is based, again, on the conflation of movieverse fiction with bad fiction.
It's simply not so that all movieverse fic sucks, and when people say it does, that sets my back up, because I know it's not true. I know I don't suck, nor does Min, nor Die, nor Jenn etc.

Does that make sense?
