Hmmm, I'm the one lone dissenter here. Shoving fanfiction at an actor is tasteless, sure, and lots of bat-shit insane fans don't know that there are serious boundaries that should not be crossed (witness the insanity that frequents the SPN crowd), however, you know, I've written fanfiction that I'm pretty proud of. And while I might visually have cues that feed into the story, these stories aren't about the actors. They are about the characters. What I would find humiliating is seeing comments that I have made about the actor's and their physical attributes because the line between actor and character is non-existant. My fanfiction? That's just storytelling and nothing I've written would I find embarassing. Especially in the case of the HP stuff, where there are writers that can write rings around JKR.
