do die-hard LOTR fans like Star Wars? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

SW should be watched, LOTR should be read. I can't look at SW books without wincing and I can't really watch the LOTR movies without that either.

PS: good point about coke and tea. Very true. SW is good mild/passing entertainment. LOTR is no less entertaining, but requires a much geater emotional investment from the reader and gives much more back in return.
