Vampire movies (mainly twilight) and BSG. I like BSG but the fans can be annoying.

I hate that most Twilight fans are stuck on the vampire stuff. If there is a new vampire movie, they are going.

I just don't see the Lord of the Rings fanbase as being that bad. Nolan fanbase is fricking terrible, as is the Anti-Nolan fanbase. Star Wars fans can be as annoying as shite too. Lord of the Rings fanbase may be a bit smug in their opinion and have the biggest plethora of nerds with people that can actually speak elvish. However I don't think they go to the extreme mood swings Nolan's fans and anti-fans go to.

Honestly, I hate Twilight more because it ruined an entire genre.

Yeah...Batman fans are worse. Not regular Batman fans...(like, hey good movie - lets move on) but the hyperventilating...GOAT crowd - Nolan is God and this is the finest cinema ever created.

Not a franchise but people who think there is some deep meaning to Donnie Darko. It's just a shite movie there is no hidden meaning.

As a fan of the Nolan Batman movies and a fan of the Batman comics, I can't fricking stand either fanbase. Reality goes bye-bye when these people get together. "Batman ALWAYS FINDS A WAY TO WIN! He could beat ANYBODY!" "Christopher Nolan is a god. I would bow down and beg him to fart on me so I can bathe in his greatness." Makes me want to drink. Rubbing Alcohol... Furiously.

Yeah I use to like Underworld and the sorts. But now I don't really want to watch them just because I know they spawned off of twilight.

There's nothing wrong with Trekkies because they know they are cultists. I like that about them, and they are self aware that they are niche. It's when cultists think everyone should be a part of their cult that I get annoyed.
I was going to post this exactly. Trekkies are the most fervent fanbase that is the least annoying. Trekkies are fun, not annoying. They are self-admittedly weird and take ownership of it.

I'd honestly say the anti-Avatar fans are more annoying.

I remember a lot of anger when it didn't win best picture.

I'm waiting for the day Nolan directs a Whedon script and the internet implodes. It will make my nerd dreams come true.
