Hercule Poirot vs. Yoda?
Me and my girlfriend are having a bet. We are betting about which one of these guys is more popular. So what do you think? Who do you think is more popular? Hercule Poirot (from many Agatha Christi’s works and movies) or Yoda (a Jedi master from the Star Wars series).
I am NOT a Star Wars Fan. I like to joke that the Empire Strikes Back made me into a Marxist for two weeks because I was so disgusted about the treatment of scientific speculation in that film — and Star Wars.
I’ve been in and out with Hercule Poirot over the years. Right now, I’m moderately in. I’m not rereading anything — I have no intention of doing so — and usually flip away from the TV shows, but he’s a VERY fond memory and I talk about him a lot.
I’m not saying I’m biased. Just that the above is why I think my experiences would say Yoda. And no, I don’t mean Yoda of any given movie or trilogy. People just groove on him. More people are grooving on Poirot than have been for a while, but the cross section of Yoda fans I meet is much broader in terms of age and interest. I don’t see too many four-year-olds wearing Murder on the Orient Express backpacks.
