[Bad username or unknown identity: ]
1. Stark Treck or Star Wars ?
I will admit it... Star Trek. My first fanfic occured there... oh dear.
2. Galaxy Quest or Space Balls ?
Galaxy Quest. Not a Mel Brooks fan, except for Young Frankenstein.
3. Robert Jordan or Terry Brooks ?
I haven't bothered with either, except once. The novelization of Phantom Menace was pretty bad.
4. Harry Potter or His Dark Material ?
Harry Potter! And I refuse (mostly) to read fanfic. She may take forever, but her universe is enough for me until 7 is done.
I don't know why Pullman thought he could write a little girl character, cause... he can't. I sludged through the trilogy because it had some promise, but then I was mad about buying them, even used.
5. Shadowrun or Cyberpunk ?
---
6. Neil Gaiman or Alan Moore ?
After Neverwhere, I have soooo much respect for Gaiman.
7. Terry Pratchett or Douglas Adams ?
Pratchett by default. (The hell with Adams.) I haven't actually read any yet, despite strong recommendations.
8. Princess Bride or The Quest for the Holy Grail ?
"As you wish..."
9. Neon Genesis Evangelion or Serial Experiments Lain ?
With all its faults, Evangelion. I skimmed Lain.
10. George RR Martin or Steven Erikson ?
---
11. Slayers or Trigun ?
Trigun. Wolfwood with a gun to my head can't make me watch any more Slayers.
12. Card Captor Sakura or Sailormoon ?
Do I even need to answer this one?
13. Babylon 5 or Farscape ?
No.
14. Spirited Away (Sen to Chihiro) or Princess Mononoke ?
Princess Mononoke!!! First anime on a big screen. First Miyazaki.
15. Naruto or Hunter X Hunter ?
---
16. Akira or Ghost in the Shell ?
Ghost in the Shell, though neither are my favorites.
17. Alien or Terminator ?
Terminator... 2, especially. Linda. Hamilton.
18. Blade Runner or Brazil ?
Blade Runner -- director's cut, only.
19. Avalon or eXistenZ ?
---
20. Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Angel the Serie ?
I actually prefer Angel because the tone of the series was more consistent. Buffy went into soap-opera-ville and never came out. Still, the episode where Evil!Angel kills Ms. Calender is my favorite of all of them. What a mess. It was beautiful.
21. Love Hina or Video Girl Aï ?
Love Hina!!!
22. Spike (William the Bloody) or Gerald Tarrant (the Hunter) ?
No contest: Spike. But I prefer him before the "I'm in love with Buffy" plotline thing. After that, he's such a whiner.
23. Blade or D. ?
Vampire Hunter D was the first anime I ever saw, ever. And Bloodlust is beautiful, but I have the dub, so I have to watch it with the sound off. The soundtrack for Witch Hunter Robin fits surprizingly well.
24. Apple or Linux
---
25. Java or C ?
As in coffee? As in vitamin? {blinks innocently}
26. Wolfenstein or Doom ?
---
27. Escaflowne or Patlabor ?
I've seen Escaflowne and avoided Patlabor.
28. Pocky or Ramune?
Ramune! Candy, too. I have about 8 bottles of the soda in my fridge right now. That little marble drives me crazy.
29. XTML or PHP?
---
30. Pixar or Dreamworks?
Dreamworks. It's almost a guarantee of watchability.
31. Ramen or Hot Pockets?
They're both terrible for you. Don't eat that crap.
32. Jolt or Mountian Dew?
Jolt! Or better yet, Afri Cola. Mountain Dew Red tastes just like Big Red, so why bother? And do you really want to drink something called "mountain dew"?
33. Red Hat or Mandrake ?
Red caps or mandrake roots?
34. Bit Torrent or IRC ?
---
35. DDR on soft pad or hard ?
---
36. MegaTokyo or 8 Bit Theate r?
---
37. All Your Base or Trogdor ?
---
38. Gravitation or Fake ?
Gravitation is better animated. Plus... YUKI !
39. Yoko Kanno or Kenji Kawai ?
---
40. Spiderman or X-men ? (movies)
I could go either way. But X-men has Ian McKellan.
41. Bram Stocker's Dracula or Interview with the Vampire ? (movies)
Interview was pretty decent, but BSD has Anthony Hopkins, and is ridiculous enough to be funny.
42. XBox or Playstation ?
---
43. Dune or Hyperion ?
---
44. The Authority or Planetary ?
---
45. Lucifer or Hellblazer ?
Which Lucifer?
46. Clive Barker or Tim Powers ?
I can't stand Clive Barker.
47. Bruce Sterling or William Gibson ?
Haven't read any Sterling. Lord of the Flies has merit.
48. Lord of the Ring or Conan ?
Dragonbone Chair, by Tad Williams
49. The Maker of Universes or The Nine Princes of Amber ?
---
50. Something Positive or Sinfest ?
---
51. D&D or White Wolf ?
Dungeons & Dragons? I DM'd for a group of my friends, once. Couldn't figure out how missile weapons were supposed to work, so we didn't use them. Mostly, I liked the dice and drawing maps.
52. Amber the Diceless RPG or Nobilis ?
---
53. Call of Cthuluh or Paranoia ?
---
54. GURPS or Rolemaster ?
---
55. Weiss Kreuz or Saiyuki ?
Weiss, because... just because. But I love Saiyuki, first season. Homura showed up and I started to fall asleep mid-disk.
56. Batman or Superman ?
The Dark Knight, absolutely. He has the better villians, too.
57. Crouching Dragon, Hidden Tiger or Once Upon a Time in China ?
---
58. Chronicles of Thomas the Unbeliever or Earthsea ?
---
59. Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman or R.A. Salvator ?
Weis & Hickman, because of Raistlin. Big time fluttery feelings, even still.
60. Dead or Alive or Soul Calibur ?
---
61. Zelda or Final Fantasy ?
FF3.
62. Ranma 1/2 or City Hunter ?
---
63. ICQ or AIM ?
---
64. Fruit Basket or Please Save my Earth ?
Fruits Basket! To fanfic or not to fanfic?
65. Anita Blake or Buffy Anne Summers ?
Buffy.
66. Ender's Game or Use of Weapons ?
---
67. Newty or Animerica ?
---
68. Honor Harrington or Miles Vorkosigan ?
---
69. Full Metal Panic or Full Metal Alchemist ?
Ask me after FMA is licensed and rentable.
70. Greg Bear or David Brin ?
I though I was the only one who mixed them up.
71. Ninja Scroll or Rurouni Kenshin ?
Kenshin!
72. Brave New World or 1984 ?
Sure, I read BNW at least twice (like, in elementary school), but 1984 is quite a bit better.
73. Pern or Darkover ?
Must I admit to reading McCaffery?
74. Bleach or Shaman King ?
---
75. Transformers or Robotech ?
Transformers! I only wish I'd known what anime was at the time... it would have explained SO much.
77. The Martian Chronicles or Stranger in a Strange Land ?
---
78. Ninja or Pirates ?
Ninja!
79. Ring or the 6th Sense ?
Come on.... Sixth Sense, absolutely. Although I did find The Ring scary and wrong. The girl in Ringu is scarier, though.
80. Shounen or Shoujo ?
Judging from my list of favorites, I'd have to say Shoujo. It happens.
81. The Twilight Zone or Doctor Who ?
Rod. Sterling. And that god-awful episode about wishing things away into the cornfield.
82. The Crow or Edward Cissor-hands ?
Edward Scissorhands is an all time favorite movie. Diane Wiest, Tim Burton's imagination, everything. I didn't like Depp until that movie.
83. Tanith Lee or Barbra Hambly ?
Lee, I guess.
84. Luis Royo or Boris Valejo ?
Jodie Leigh. K.Y. Craft. Frank Frazetta.
85. Tokyo Babylon or Tokyo Godfathers ?
Tokyo Godfathers was excellent!
86. Hellsings or Witch Hunter Robin ?
Witch Hunter Robin, and it looks better, too.
87. The Avengers or Charlie's Angels ?
Avengers. In both cases -- original shows and movie remakes.
88. Mercedes Lackey or Jennifer Robinson ?
MISTY !!!
89. Inu Yasha or Fushigi Yugi ?
Inu Yasha seems to have a bit more going on and is less of a romantic-interests-story, straight up.
90. Street Fighters or Mortal Kombat ?
---
91. Resident Evil or Silent Hill ?
---
92. Dwarves or Elves ?
Elves, high elves or Keebler. Or "The Cobbler and the Elves".
93. Elric or Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser ?
---
94. Starship Troopers or Pitch Black ?
Pitch Black, but don't make me watch Riddick or I'll pay someone 20 menthol Kools to do a shine job on my eyes. And not to see better in the dark, either.
95. Metal Gear or Splinter Cell ?
---
96. Age of Mythology or Warcraft III ?
---
97. Everquest or Dark Age of Camelot ?
---
98. La Jetee or Twelve Monkeys ?
I own a copy of Twelve Monkeys. Love that time-paradox stuff. (Refer back to question #1.)
99. Cowboy Bebop or Gunnm (Battle Angel Alita)
---
100. Shining or 2001 the Space Odyssey
The Shining. The book far exceeds the movies, but still, Jack Nicholson brings a special something in.
