And btw yes, it is possible for a "rational human being" to prefer Harry Potter over the LotR.

Sure, it's possible to prefer Potter to LotR.
However, it is not possible for a rational human being to actually think Potter is BETTER than LotR. By any standard of art, writing, performance, direction (talking about both the novels and films), Tolkien/Jackson's work is just flat-out superior in every regard.

lol The LotR books are sooo boring. And I am rational.

Whether you think they're boring or not, they're brilliant pieces of literature that completely redefined the way we think of fantasy settings, epic stories, and British literature.

Uhm not really...
The books weren't all that well received when they came out.

Then it proceeded to become the second-best selling book of the 20th century in the western world behind... The Bible.
You're going to have to do better than that.
