I think 'The Lord Of The Rings' is the mother of all cult books, because you can be in that cult and not even know you're in it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I would definitely line up for 'The Lord of the Rings.' I'm a huge 'Lord of the Rings' geek.
I'd never read 'Lord of the Rings' until I was asked to play Gandalf, so I didn't really know it was a frightfully famous book.
'Lord of the Rings' was a set of books in which the world had been conceived before the characters were placed within that context.
I'm a cult writer now. I have a cult readership.
I'm a really big 'Lord of the Rings' fan. I have all the extended editions.
I seem to have a knack for picking movies that go on to be cult favorites.
I happen to be a huge 'Lord of the Rings' fan. I do an annual marathon of the extended editions.
'Star Wars' or 'The Lord of the Rings' deal with great big Joseph Campbell-style myths, good and evil.
Tolkien fans reacted so strongly to 'Lord Of The Rings' as a franchise because it stayed true; the heart of it was true to the book.
I'd never heard of the 'Lord of the Rings', actually. So I went to the bookstore and there it was, three shelves of books about Tolkien and Middle-earth, and I was like, 'Holy cow, what else am I missing out on?'
