Pop culture site Vulture has named Lord of the Rings #6 on their list of the 25 Most Devoted Fan Bases, outranking other fandom favorites like Star Trek (#14), Joss Whedon (#12), and Doctor Who (#9), but getting squeezed out of the top 5 by Justin Bieber! TheOneRing.net also gets a shoutout by being listed as “the main fan site” hangout for Ringers/ Tolkienites.
