520    "Fans are everywhere: from Fifty Shades of Grey to 
       Veronica Mars, from Comic-Con to sitcom, from niche to 
       Geek Chic, fans are becoming the most visible and 
       important audience of the twenty-first century. For years 
       the media industries ignored fans and fan activities, but 
       now they're paying attention and a lot of money to develop
       a whole new wave of products intended to harness the power
       of fandom. What impact do such corporate media efforts 
       have on fan practice and fan identities? And are the media
       industries actually responding to fans as fans want them 
       to? In Playing Fans, Paul Booth argues that the more 
       attention entertainment businesses pay to fans, the more 
       mainstream fans have become popularized. But such 
       mainstreaming ignores important creative fan work and 
       tries to channel fandom into activities lucrative for the 
       companies. Offering a new approach to the longstanding 
       debate about the balance between manipulation and 
       subversion in popular culture, the author argues that we 
       can understand the current moment best through the 
       concepts of pastiche and parody. This sophisticated 
       alternative to conceiving of fans as either dupes of the 
       media industry or rebels against it takes the discussion 
       of "transformative" and "affirmative" fandom in a 
       productive new direction. With nuanced analyses of the 
       Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff, the representations of 
       fans in TV shows like Community and films like Fanboys, 
       SuperWhoLock fans' use of gifs, and the similarities in 
       discussions of slash fandom and pornographic parody films,
       this book reveals how fans borrow media techniques and 
       media industries mimic fan activities. Just as the 
       entertainment industry needs fans to succeed, so too do 
       fans need-and desire-the media, and they represent their 
       love through gif fics, crowdfunding, and digital cosplay. 
       Everyone who wants to understand how consumers are making 
       themselves at home in the brave new world being built by 
       the contemporary media should read this book."--|cProvided

       Play illuminates the multiple economic, cultural, and
