I would beg you not to invoke the Harlot Queen's name, for the wrath of both her fans and haters is to be fearedcrop52 said:
O: I also really like the Mass Effect and Dragon Age series of games. I just wish there was an option to turn off romantic cues in the menu. (IE, I could have some of the characters show no interest in me)
I'd say inFamous 1&2, Animal Crossing, Legend of Zelda (Wind Waker and Twilight Princess) Silent Hill 2. But none of my friends seem to be as into them. Scott Pilgrim, Spider-Man and any film by Edgar Wright....D.Gray-Man, Soul Eater. Tho I don't seem to know any other fans, bar one of my friends.
Yes. Without a doubt.DarkRyter said:
Also a fan of XKCD and Dr. McNinja when it comes to web-comics.
Anime, would have to be Baccano, Studio Ghibli films, Gurren Laggan, and Summer Wars.
TV, pretty much only Doctor Who.
Books, The Hobbit, Redwall, and A Song of Ice and Fire.
Manga, One Piece, Vinland Saga, and maybe Bleach.
That's about all I've got.
Scott Pilgrim. I've been obsessed with it lately, just got through the 4th book. I'm rationing myself to buying a new volume every other week or so because I know I'll be so sad when I've finished it.
I just relate so much to the characters in the book, especially Scott himself. Were both average guys in our 20's who play instruments, video games, zone out constantly, and obsess about getting a haircut when our hair gets long while never doing anything about it. I love every one of the other characters in the series, and feel like it would be so cool to be friends with them.
I really really like the comic's visual style, and the writing is so funny and full of references to all these nerdy things that are really relevant to my life. As I get farther into the series, I'm also loving the frequent throwbacks to jokes in earlier volumes, and the deep character development Scott goes through. Seriously, at the point I'm at right now, he is radically different from the way he was at the beginning of the story. I briefly glanced at the first book this morning and was like, "Wow he was such an asshole before."

I'm an Atlus Fanboy for one, which is really weird because I don't have a PS2, on which most of their best games were done.
I'm also a Megaman Fanboy. I got hooked on it with Megaman X on the SNES and have loved the games ever since. I've been unable to play through all the games only for the reason that I didn't have the money to get the collections.
I'm trying to think of a specific anime that I'm a fanboy of, but all I can think of (since I've only very recently gotten into anime) is how much I love Crispin Freeman's english dubbing.

Anime: Inuyasha or One Piece. I can't decide. I like them both equally.
Games: Legend of Zelda, but that's not pretty common. I don't play many games.
I have the typical fanboy (Fangirl?) crushes on Inuyasha and Link though, so that may weigh in. Dunno, really.

Bioshock: I could go on and on about everything I love in this game.
Pokemon: I have grown up with the series and actively discuss and play it today.
Harry Potter: I love both the books and the movies (Prisoner of Azkaban's the best film though).

Heavy Rain (17 playthroughs)). I can talk about this game whole day, I hear every single line of dialog, and made/failed on purpose every single command possible.
Alpha Protcol - (7 playthroughs) - There's probably still more to happen, but still - awesome. Definitely the most underrated game of 2010. I can talk and speculate all day about possible story branches, character builds, perks etc.

Avatar: The Last Airbender.
You know, the actual show, not that movie farce that makes me honestly want to punch a kitten. Oh Shyamalan, why for did you want me to punch kittens, they do not deserve to suffer your abuse...
Anyways, this is one of my favorite shows of all time, of all time, and I know way too much about it.

I think I'm pretty much a fanboy for whatever I am currently watching/playing/reading/etc at this moment. If we're talking about Star Wars, I'm a fan. If we're talking about various anime (DBZ, Bleach, Berserk, FMA, etc) I am a fan. I guess the only limitation is that I have to know and enjoy it on a regular basis. Yeah, it seems pathetic, but I don't think I'm the annoying "THIS THING IZ P3RFCT!" fanboy. I just get enthusiastic about what I enjoy.
Oh wait. I'm a fanboy for video games in general. I'll talk your ear off about video games if you give me a chance. And to a lesser extent for anime.

Big fan of the DC Universe. Not quite sure how I feel about the reboot yet. On one hand, it makes all these great characters more accessible to potential new fans, but I'm still annoyed that DC are doing away with the continuity I've spent so long getting to know.
Love the Mad Max films, even Beyond Thunderdome, though not quite as much as the first two. Could have done without Tina Turner.
Also a huge fan of Graham Linehan's TV comedies. He just always seems to strike gold. First Father Ted, then Black Books, now The IT Crowd. Can't wait to see what he does in future.

Most of the games I love are Bioware games, specifically "Dragon Age: Origins" and "Mass Effect" (though DA2 was slightly disappointing, but that's not the point). And I happen to have a fangirl crush on Garrus Vakarian. Deeeerrrr, I need help 8'D
Edit: Oh and I am a fan of the "Silent Hill" series, or at least 1-4. The rest I didn't really care for, except for maybe "Shattered Memories", but I haven't watched that yet :|

Transformers. I just... I can't... I must... I love it. I love it so much. It was a huge part of my childhood and it continues through to this day.
