I know, right? TSN fandom had a fascinating relationship with reality, since there were a lot of details known about the real people's lives, but not included in the film that authors could pick and choose to include or change. I'd done some academic research on fandom, particularly RPF, right before this movie came out, so that aspect of the fandom was especially captivating.
Also, the quality of the writing was weirdly high. I didn't even particularly like the movie, but that was the highest ratio of available fic to good fic I've ever encountered in a medium-sized fandom.
