Strange Magic is an animated film released in the US in late January of 2015. The original idea behind it came from George Lucas, and was inspired by Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. While the movie was reviewed very poorly by critics and made little money at the box office, it developed a small but dedicated fandom within days of the movie's release.
Fandom
The fandom is mostly on Tumblr, using the film's tag as their primary means of finding and communicating with each other, although some fics are crossposted to AO3. Interestingly, the fandom's primary ship is also the main canon pairing (Marianne/Bog King). Much of the fandom's output is AU summaries or fanart instead of fics. As many of the fans are also fans of the Transformers franchise, ideas that in some way combine the two are not uncommon.
