1. Is there anything you like only casually, only to mislead people into excitement when you mention it?
Not really, because if I like something even a little, I tend to research it extensively. Which leads us to...
2. Have you ever confused a casual fan with ALL the love and knowledge?
No, but I have done the complete opposite :D
A few years ago, I hosted a movie night and one of the guys (who I didn't know beforehand) came over early. When he saw that I had couple of Doctor Who boxsets on my shelf, he started talking about his own collection of pretty much all DW media that existed, clearly trying to prove that he was "more of a fan" than someone who only liked the new series. Now, I have not watched any classic Who, but I have watched many, many, interviews of Peter Capaldi where he talks about it, so I was able to "outgeek" the guy by starting to ask him about his opinion on things like "Power of the Daleks" and "Ark in Space" and even correcting him when he got some obscure details wrong :D
3. What is your stance on the Star Wars sequels? Do you consider them canon?
Of course they're canon, because whether or not I like something doesn't affect its canonicity (she says, while thinking of "Time, Space and the Incurable Romantic") and I enjoyed them all when I saw them for the first time, just like I enjoyed all the prequels.
4. What is a book, movie, or series you WOULD like to see a sequel or prequel to? Or, if it's already had one of those, do you think it could be done better?
I wish we'd get some continuation to Babylon 5 that would finally bring closure to all the plotlines that were left open, like the telepath war and the drakh plague. Preferably in book format since that would solve the budget problems that plagued B5, and the fact that many of the actors are now dead :(
