The Op says nothing about this being restricted to only subjective matters. thus.

Pssh, yeah right, I imagine a whole cinema full of children with you as the odd one out with your lard flowing out both sides of the seat with a whole packet of Cheetos and a 2 litre bottle of Mountain Dew, yelling obnoxiously loudly whenever Voldemort appears on screen and cries hard when he suffers any kind of setback, then security having to be brought in to remove you from the cinema due to noise complaints from the children then going on an eating spree at McDonalds due to being denied seeing the rest of the movie on the big screen and blacklisted from the cinema

That was, 2011, now nobody cares and has moved on to quality series, something you shamefully never developed into

Harry Potter's plot was retarded, Voldemort was a fail of a villain, the acting was meh at best, their "duelling" and "fight scenes" were boring as shit, most of the characters were terrible and there were no memorable moments at all

I don't give a shit about quantity of films or box office

Simple fact if the matter is Lord of the Rings simply had a far bigger impact on geek culture and given alot of fictional universes were based on Tolkien's books puts it above a preteen fad like Harry Potter which influenced, nothing

If you thing Harry Potter was anything as influential or popular or what have you as Lord of the Rings, then you should probably make a judgement when you're not consuming excessive amounts of magic mushrooms, like you are now


Completely false.

The money made off of these books, movies, parks, merchandising makes it a global phenomenon.

If nobody cared theme parks would not have been created and no new films would have been made. Potter films have made more than Lotr films. Suck it. The movies get obviously darker as the series progresses and deals with actual relatable moments unlike the lets have a great adventure with all these black and white characters. Potter was a series that had logic and common sense behind their magic whereas Lotr just makes shit up whenever they want to use it. Everyone can use spells and has access to the same magic but differs based off skill and expertise. In potter for no reason explained Gandalf just comes back to life.

Bullshit. Voldemort was a villain unlike Sauron who had no characterization other than a black and white completely evil guy who was devoid of a personality. Voldemort actually was in the series and wasn't dead throughout the climax of his series. Anyone could have played Sauron as he was a big guy in a suit who swung his mace. You're an idiot.

I am arguing about the films not the books. This is the movies versus you dumb shit. Quit citing the books in the movie versus just because you're unhappy with the fact Poter outperformed the Lotr at the box office.

You're the same clod that thinks Sauron as a villain was epic despite any big guy putting on a suit and swinging a mace or moving around. Dummy.

😂 😂

We already had a topic about money made by franchises. I cited the subjective nature of this thread you're just too dumb to see it.

Voldemort wasn't a black-and-white completely evil guy?

We saw a real human explanation as to why he was out for himself. He was a very human evil character and givens he circumstances we can see why. No explanation as to Sauron just he's this evil overlord. I like Sauron a lot but in terms of acting or a personality he was pretty bland unlike Voldemort.

Well no arguments that Sauron lacked personality {we really weren't exposed to him properly} but the movies didn't convey any complexity unto Voldemort either. That doesn't make him a bad villain per se, but he's definitely not a complicated one.

We saw enough and were told enough to see his human evil enough to see why he ended up that way. Sauron was not explained in any manner which was the problem in terms of complexity. Not that I am complaining because I liked Sauron but criticizing Volde let for being a bland villain while defending Lotr is a bit stupid.

False. Box office dollars says Potter. Quit lying.

So now that the numbers didn't favor you, you want it to just be "Box office" money. Okay, you're still an idiot at math, cos:

SW adjusted for inflation box office = $4,651,137,200

HP adjusted for inflation box office = $2,875,134,800

4.65 > 2.87

We are not adjusting anything. Potter wins. Quit altering the numbers based on your biased. Also quit going off topic, short stack.

Box office number > you

You're a grown man who can't accept that your favorite [children's] franchise didn't do as well as Star Wars. Pathetic, you are
