I struggle with the extra-canon stuff. Though I love creative expressions around those fandoms. I mainly stick to the tribute videos and fan-made trailers - some of which are funky, and some of which are their own little form of art.
I find it difficult to connect with the fan fic stuff though. I think my orientation to it is quite similar to my attitude towards counter-factual history: 'yeah, that's interesting but it is not what happened'.
