[font=Arial, sans-serif]Top Forty-Six Reasons Lord of the Rings beats Star Wars!
Read and enjoy! =]
[/font]

[font=Arial, sans-serif]
46. LOTR: No love triangles involving a brother and sister.


45. You didn't hear rumours of N'Sync doing a cameo in LOTR now did you?


44. "i truely, deeply love you" - at least lotr doesn't have such corny dialogue


43. LOTR did the entire, "Crazy wizard gives young and unskilled boy a powerful item and dies to save young boy" thing first.


42. LotR - Whinny Character dies in the first movie.


41. Where else do you find a second breakfast?


40. LOTR better then SW: Our troops are home grown.


39. You can get more beer in Middle-Earth


38. cave troll versus rancor......cave troll


37. Uruk-hai, unlike stormtroopers, can fight.


36. In LOTR the comic relief (ie Gimli, Pipin & Merry) actually speak proper English


35. Sorry Yoda, but nobody screams old-man sexy like Ian McKellan


34. LOTR is on DVD.


33. Liv Tyler, Miranda Otto, and Cate Blanchett. Let's hear it for options!


32. LOTR made three movies at once. George, are you taking notes on this?


31. LotR is waaaaayyy better. I'd like to see Obi do the pointy hat trick. Hah!


30. LOTR is better because Elrond is not actually Sauron in disquise.


29. Arwen can kick butt in a skirt and sixteen crinolines. Unlike Amidala, who must strip to leggings and a midriff-baring shirt.


28. $325,736,000


27. LOTR is better than SW because...Gollum doesn't sound like Grover


26. Gandalf's friend and ally who owed him a life debt was Gwahir Windlord, the noble king of the giant eagles. Qui Gon had Jar Jar.


25. LOTR: Because even the dumbest creatures in LOTR would be smart enough to know that making Jar Jar a senator is a bad idea.

24. The White Council in LORT included Galadriel, who was youthful and divinely beautiful despite being over 4000 years old. Yoda of the Jedi Council looked like hell after a mere 900.


23. Chicks will actually go with you to a LOTR movie.


22. LOTR is better than SW because the furry movie characters never launch into song


21. Merry and Pippin are slightly less annoying than C3PO and R2D2. Slightly.


20. Frodo doesn't have some sort of twisted "I don't like sand" thing for Sam


19. Pete can't tease us with the promise of a new episode for 25 years and then make up something as lame as midichlorians.


18. It's more satisfying to see an Orc get beheaded then a Stormtrooper fall down.

17. In Star Wars, the tunnel walls on Geonosis came to life and mounted an ultimately futile attack. In TTT, the forrest came to life and kicked the crap out of Saruman.


16. Elves don't seem to know about bras. Nuff said.


15. Although an Oliphaunt and an AT-AT are about even when it comes to destructive power, an Oliphaunt from LOTR isn't stupid enough to keep walking after its legs are tied up!


14. Fashionable mullet hobbit hair.


13. Star wars--lightsabers that burn a wound closed after striking an opponent so there is no bleeding, LOTR--has REAL swords that cause buckets 'o blood to shoot across the room!


12. Han Solo is a filthy rogue who turns out to be, er, a slightly cleaner rogue, while in LOTR Strider, the filthy rogue, becomes Aragorn, king of mankind.


11. Frodo is from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. WOO HOO CR!


10. If Greedo had been replaced by Legolas when he had to beat Han to the draw in the cantina, Legolas would be the one flipping the bartender a credit.


9. No one complains that the Tolkien books aren't canon.

8. Toe to toe, Merry & Pippin could kick some serious Jawa ass.


7. The ale at the Prancing Pony beats the blue swill at the cantina every time!


6. The one ring is more powerful than the force, didn't you see Sauron in the prologue?


5. Peter Jackson simply cannot make *beep* up as he goes along.


4. Interspecies relationships work in Middle Earth. I don't think Leia and Chewbacca ever had chance.


3. LotR is better because I know that Peter Jackson isn't going to rerelease The Two Towers just so some uruk-hai can shoot first in the Battle of Helm's Deep.

2. When gollum talks to himself it is psychologically interesting, when Jar Jar does it it is because the audience left.


1. Aragorn is ahead of Anakin on the "Booty Call tally" by one.

lol I personally love both about equally (I prefer LOTR just a bit, but only because Natalie and Hayden act about as well as cardboard cutouts), so those lists were hilarious to me. In the end, let's face it: they're both awesome! :D

That's really funny. My friend is going to see this.
"35. Sorry Yoda, but nobody screams old-man sexy like Ian McKellan"
That's probably my favorite!

who are you saying would win? I would have to say an elf. The Jedi would be a pincushion before they even reached the elf. Yoda is a diffent story. Awesome Yoda is

Jedi would winn! Siriously the lightsaber could block the arrows. If they can block blaster shots they could easily block a arrow.

And besides they got all there force abilities.

The Jedi may have the Force but the Elves have stealth, something the Jedi just can't seem to overcome.

......I still think the Jedi would win... Unless it was one like that really pathetic Jedi that Jango took out in Episode 2 at the battle of Geinosis
