Mainstream fantasy familiarity quotient

Alright, I'm just curious how far behind everyone I am. This should be fun...

Oh, and no points unless you actually finished the book/movie.

why, yes, i am an allstar with 19 points.
to be fair, i included among "books ive read" the ones that were read aloud to me (hobbit and lord of the rings) when i was younger, so i guess thats subjective.

ditto. I eventually read Hobbit for myself, but have only experienced LotR in the read-aloud-by-my-parents version. (although, they did this about every three years with each new kid, so that the last time I listened to them reading it I was like 14-15.)

Yeah, same in my family, though I didnt listen the last time around. We *did* at some point get the hobbit as a book on tape, though, for long carrides...so i heard it sometime recently.
