Someone who knows his stuff (hopefully was well as I do )
Have you read Children Of Hurin?

Lord of the Rings.

I never really liked Star Wars.

Plus, I'm convinced that Natalie Portman and I were married in a past life judging by just how drawn to her I am.


Do you go by fistfulofmetal on NeoGaf?

LotR, no question. The Lord of the Rings feels like it has so much more depth, and a better overall story. As far as the movies go, I love both trilogies, but I like LotR just a little more. I would like it a lot more if they hadn't took away the ending in the book.

I'm more  of a fantasy than sci-fi person. But I do really like the Star Wars series as well.  The original three are my favourites.

You haven't read it?

I think DUNE is easily the best Sci-Fi series of all time (with the movie in exception)

Star Wars is entertaining though
