I'd like to consider myself a "true Tolkien fan" even though I find myself defending Peter Jackson's movies, sometimes vehemently, in some discussions. I think the line is rather blurred between being a book fan and a movie fan, because I for one, really enjoy both. Now, I can see how the Leggy-boppers and Ary-boppers wouldn't count as "true Tolkien fans," but just because one enjoys the movies a bit more than the books shouldn't immediately "declassify" them as a Tolkien fan.
