Sting A Fun *NEW* Quiz! Take It Now!

  • Harry Potter or Lord Of The Rings?
    Where does your heart reside?

    We have seen many films and books come and go, but these two are classics. One is older than the other, but they are both beloved books and movies. So the question is, to which do you love more? Take this test to find out!

    1) You are on your way to the orthodontist’s office, and you have to take the bus. It’s a long ride and soon, you are asleep. In your dream, you encounter which of the following?
    a. A certain tall, blond, and dreadfully dreamy elf… [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]b. A shaky, little elf that has tennis ball shaped eyes and is wearing a dirty pillowcase.
    c. A crocodile being chased by a sunburnt Aussie.
    2) You wake up, only to find that you missed your appointment and the bus is coming closer to a movie theatre that you’ve never heard about before. You?
    a. Get off the bus and watch a movie about some wizards and witches.
    b. Get off the bus and watch a movie about a few wizards, some elves, a couple midgets, and a certain ring.
    c. Get off the bus and watch a movie about a couple sunburnt Aussies chasing crocs in the big city.
    3) Finally, you get on the return bus. From the movie theatre, you had your choice of a “collectable”. Which did you choose and why?
    - You have three choices: (pick one)
    - A plastic cup with a certain Australian all over it
    - A plastic cup with the pictures of a wizard from an evil house, and two wizards and a witch from the opposite house
    - A plastic cup with the pictures of a tacky ring, some midgets, a man, a wizard, and an elf
    - Write your answer. (Which you picked and why)
    4) You’re at home now, so you are on your computer. Which website do you go to first?
    a. www.crocodilechaser.com
    b. www.destroytheringoftackyness.com
    c. www.theschoolofwitchesandwizards.com/quiditchforever

    I'm almost always on, so I'll give you the results asap!

  • Your results (for Nuf and San):

    "You are definately a LOTR freak, whether you like it or not! (but we all know that you love it!) You don't have any doubts about where your heart lies. I guess you only have room in your heart for one thing, why else would you be so obsessed as to take this worthless quiz?"

    Good test, eh? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I didn't even have to take this test, but I did anyway! And the Aussie one, was that about David Wenham who plays Faramir and also stars in the crocodile movie?

Here it goes.

1.b (I've had one dream about HP, but none about LotR)

2.b (LotR is a much better movie)

3.A plastic cup with the pictures of a tacky ring, some midgets, a man, a wizard, and an elf (The pictures would be cooler then the others)

4.c (Only after I've been on this site for an hour)

Ring

  • Your results:

    If you chose: 1) a. 2) b. 3) the cup with the hobits, wizards, ugly ring, etc. 4) b.
    Then you are: "You are definately a LOTR freak, whether you like it or not! (but we all know that you love it!) You don't have any doubts about where your heart lies. I guess you only have room in your heart for one thing, why else would you be so obsessed as to take this worthless quiz?"

    And for Rosie: "It's not that you arn't a full pledged LOTR freak, it's that you have a big heart. Or imagination, whatever. You have room enough in your heart and mind for two glorius and wonderful books/movies. Congratulations, because YOU ROCK!"

    And the Aussie is in refrence to the Crocodile Hunter (because he is so bad that he is funny, and he has his first movie coming out). Although the whole 'Faramir being Aussie' thing is smarter. Damn my non-smartness. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

NO NO NO NO NO!!!! You can't compare the two! They're two completely different movies and series of books! Different levels/styles/types of writing! Not comparable! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! Phew, sorry, I just had to let that out. Long day. Nice quiz tho, hope I have time to take it later. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] (I'm firmly with Tolkien on this one, entertaining as HP can be)

I already know my outcome would be LotR, since I don't like Harry Potter. I do enjoy the CrocodileHunter though...

Crikey! I know what I'd get already. This site is an incredibly biased place to post such a quiz [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

  • Tips bowler hat Just doin my job, m'am. Tips hat again and chomps on some chewing tobaco (a.k.a. grape bubbel gum! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img])

    Isn't it though? Ai, well, people shouldn't be so biast and uncaring just because they are afraid and-slash-or angry because a new book is fairly beloved, they should love all. Those people should also think of how the Tolkien fans were treated when his work first came out. It makes you think... And let's just say that they could be easily and perfectly compared with the J.K. Rowling (HP's author) fans.
