Jim wandered up and saw what was on TV. "I haven't seen this in a few years," he said. "What part is this?"

"Part four," John informed him. "That planet's about to explode with the new special effects."

"The goofy explosion ring thing?" Jim asked. "I'm no expert, but I don't think that would happen if you blew up a planet in reality."

"Doesn't seem likely," he agreed. "But I'm willing to suspend my disbelief for the sake of entertainment."

"So you're not going to take a great opportunity to complain about a change? What kind of fan are you?" Jim asked.

"I'm the kind that focuses on the changes that alter the story or the characters," John responded. "Like that completely unnecessary scene with Hanno in the hanger bay."

"I didn't mind that. Silly comedy, get to see all those bounty hunters," Jim said. "It's kind of fun."

Jim was not a Space Battles geek and did not truly understand why this scene was a travesty.

"Oh come on!" Sadly, John was a big old dork. "He stepped on that guy's tail, and that guy is not even to scale to corresponde with his appearance in the sixth movie!"

"Wow. You're a geek," Jim said. "It's just one scene, you know."

"Hey, you asked what kind of fan I was," John chuckled. "At least I'm not singing my opinions at you."

"If you know about it, it's not much of a secret," Jim pointed out. "But that doesn't mean I'm not trying to mock you."

"I say secret, because the public at large is unaware," John reminded him. "I'd feel special, but I hear you mock everyone."

"Not everyone," Jim said. "I'm sure there are a couple freshmen who I've missed."

"Those poor freshmen don't know what they're missing," John said. "You really ought to keep a list."
