HO SNAP. I forgot the blog again.


I simply do not have the expanse of knowledge required to make comparisons such as these. The only Tolkein novel I ever read was The Hobbit. I own the entire LOTR series, but I was never even able to make it through The Fellowship of the Ring. I’ve read the Harry Potter series and seen the movies; I’ve seen a few episodes of Star Trek. Don’t get me wrong, I totally geek out when I have some spare reading time or one of the movies comes on TV, but my appreciation pales in comparison to most fans. I can’t recite pages of text straight from the HP series, I don’t know the underlying philosophy of the LOTR trilogy—I’m too busy making goo-goo eyes at Legolas—and anytime I watch Star Trek, I am inherently disappointed when Zachary Quinto isn’t the Spock flooding my TV screen.



It’s shallow. So shallow.



I even forgot about Star Wars. Maybe because Zachary Quinto isn’t in it. I don’t know. I will admit to twirling around my light saber every once and awhile, but that’s as far as my fandom goes. The order in which the movies were released confused me from the start; I can’t even recall if I have seen them all. Someone might need to impose an intervention.
