4. You don't have to tie The Lord of the Rings to Game of Thrones to fit it in. Ben has clearly stated that he's not a fan of Peter Jackson's interpretation of the books.

Yeah, i was wondering about that comment. I don't know anyone who likes Reba McEntire in the least (except for maybe a few weird family members). That whole gee-whiz, "i'm so country aint i cute" schtick is annoying at best. But then again, i'm a replicant.
