In Oceans 11, Matt Damon said he entered 1138 as the code when they were breaking into the vault...apparently he's a big Star Wars (lucas) fan.

I don't get it.

Trekkies. Star Wars freaks only come out when the movies are released. But trekkies live their lives dressed in those starfleet costumes and stuff. Weird bunch.

Trekkies by FAR! There's no special town for LOTR/Star Wars fans where they reinact the films/books 24x7 like there is for star trek fans.

LotR fans:
They don't fantasize about the actual technology behind it (it's just magic, end of discussion)
They don't try to think of it as a sociological experiment or that it has some meaning beyond entertainment

Star Wars:
They do fantasize about the actual tech.
They accept that's pure entertainment

Star Trek:
Try doing a search on how the Warp Drive works (do I need to say more?)
