POPSRingers Vs. Trekkies had to leave out a massive amount to make this fit the clipping limit T...T Intro: Hard core Lord of the Rings fans have been given a name in the past several years, since the movies premiered and gained a bigger fan base: Ringers. I guess. In an interview a few years ago on the Tonight Show, Elijah Wood described Ringers as kind of like Trekkies. And at first I thought that was kind of unfair…I mean, it’s fantasy versus sci-fi, a show versus a movie: dangit, that wasn’t just an unfair comparison, it was a…a…and then I thought, wait. Maybe…maybe…he had a point. I mean, when I thought about it:

POPSFantasy Sci-Fi costumes The Armour was molded by putting it in the oven. Seems to have worked. I skipped some details, in favor of the Legal bit at the bottom. There are characters from other productions on other pages.( If you liked Star Wars it's an idea what it would have been like if the Empire had equal opportunity:-)

POPSArt Tells The Technological Future! George Orwell wrote Nineteen Eighty-Four in 1949, a dystopian novel setting forth the fears of an intrusively bureaucratized state of the future. “Big Brother is watching you!” And now I can find my lost dog with a GPS microchip implant. I heard that some top secret organizations use the VeriChip implant in human hands in order to maintain security. Scan in and scan out, how freaky or cool is that? Truth be told, almost every technological advancement of our modern age has been foreseen in a fantasy or sci-fi novel, painting or movie of some kind. Lucky guesses? Or, does science really copy the fantastic developments of the artistic pioneers, painters, and writers?

POPS6 -Word Scifi Stories We'll be brief: Hemingway once wrote a story in just six words ("For sale: baby shoes, never worn.") and is said to have called it his best work. So we asked sci-fi, fantasy, and horror writers from the realms of books, TV, movies, and games to take a shot themselves.

POPSWND: Selling sex and corruption to your kids At 31 years of age, growing up in central New Hampshire, maybe I missed the wave on this one. Maybe not. I think the thing tha protected me from trying to be "like the cool kids" or to "fit in" was, ironically, my interest in reading. I was a big fan of high fantasy (the Belgariad & Mallorean, the Icewind Dale trilogy, the Riftwar Saga, Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn, etc), and in this same space was Sci-fi. And through Sci-fi, I read Heinlen's "Stranger in a Strange Land" and "Friday". And more importantly to my developing psyche, I read the "Illuminatus Trilogy" by Robert Anton Wilson & Robert Shea. And so I began to think outside the box. To see the forces working in culture and the minds of men. And this seperated me from people, I think. I was using a different paradigm. I never tried to "be cool".
