Yeah the thing is that to score high, you have to be into a very large variety of geek-related topics. In my case, my geekiness is limited to just a few themes, such as video games, not Star Trek, marvel comics, rubik cubes nor Toklien.

Title: Re: How geek are you?

I'm just that much of a geek. Seriously. :P
Title: Re: How geek are you?
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on June 01, 2015, 10:54:23 PM
Pimath I think it depends of the quantity of geek-related stuff that you like, seriously. I am betting that some people are just causal fans of most geek stuff, but they are extraverted, spend a lot of time going out and like other non-geek hobbies as well (eg cars), but because they like so many sci-fi/adventure movies, many video games in the list and some anime, they still rack up their scores. Not to mention some people might have checked boxes of stuff they used to like but no longer care as much about. I myself consider myself as quite geek, but since my geek interests are almost only centered around video games and pixel art, my score is that low.

The books are too long. I get bored from any book longer than 400 pages. This is the same reason why after the 4th Harry Potter book I switched to the movies.

I personally prefered going with the LOTR and Hobbit movies instead of books for that reason. Btw I love LOTR :D

Same, that used to be 50% of the geek conversations on Cemetech way back in the days.
Title: Re: How geek are you?
Post by: princetonlion.tibd on June 01, 2015, 11:08:29 PM
The LOTR movies were... slightly modified from the books.

Most people call the movies butchered, but I like the battle scenes :P

Here's a list of Tolkien books I've read:
[spoiler]
The Hobbit
LOTR: all three (FOTR,TTT,ROTK)
The Silmarillion
Unfinished tales of Numenor and Middle Earth
[/spoiler]
I'm a bit of a Tolkien (books) addict :P

Slight off topic: I found this a few weeks ago on youtube (Tolkien related)

Yeah the issue with movies is that they're shorter so they had to cut down some stuff. And lol at the vid. XD
Title: Re: How geek are you?
Post by: princetonlion.tibd on June 01, 2015, 11:11:05 PM
yeah, imagine if they made a one year long movie XD

For the hobbit and/or LOTR :P
Title: Re: How geek are you?
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on June 01, 2015, 11:17:33 PM
That would probably be like certain TV shows I guess. The issue is that sometimes it might drag on for too long so a battle you would expect in the next episode would end up occuring 10 episodes later.

At least it would not be repetitive like American soap opera TV shows, though. I think some of those ran for over 10000 episodes.
Title: Re: How geek are you?
Post by: novenary on June 03, 2015, 05:32:37 AM
I love books personally. Haven't seen lotr movies but I read the books. As for Harry Potter most of the movies weren't even good, while I absolutely looooved the books.

Indeed they are but the last 3 Harry Potter movies were great. The others weren't bad but they weren't exactly great either. Also my sister forced me to watch them dubbed in French, and besides the last 3 movies the dubbing quality sux.

I personally liked movie 3, 6 and 7 (part 1 and 2) the best. 1, 4 and 5 were good too IMHO but not as much, and I am not a big fan of 2 since they tries to make it long, but they removed the wrong parts of the book in the movie.

I just get bored from overly long books personally.

Title: Re: How geek are you?

I wouldn't be surprised if at least 3.14% was possible, given the extremely large amount of questions there are.
Title: Re: How geek are you?
Post by: Snektron on June 15, 2015, 07:50:47 AM
I bet you get extra points when your score is 3.14% :P
Then they would instandly be taken away because your score is no longer 3.14%

I personally grew up with the movies, but I stopped after the 4th. The 4th first movies thus remained my favorite Star Trek stuff.

Yeah it never aired on free channels when I was kid plus I wasn't that much into TV series anyway. Also the 4th movie was my favorite.
