Lord of the Rings is the obvious answer (maybe I should say Tolkien in general, though I'm not Silmarillion's biggest fan); I love it more than most things and never grow tired of hearing about it, or talking about it. I have so many fond memories of it, and nothing else has come along and usurped it's way into my heart as fast or as deeply as LOTR.

Some of the things that make me happiest barely even have fandoms, though. Skies of Arcadia, Jet Grind Radio, Shenmue, KOTOR, The Authority, Uncharted... (Granted Uncharted is an extremely successful video game series, but there's little fic and art. It's disappointing considering Nate/Elena is one of the few canon ships I am all about.)

Oh, Portal too. Not so much the fandom though, as just playing the game itself; Portal can always put me in a better mood. (More recently, just hearing about Tiger and Bunny does this too. That series is adorable.)

Other old favorite include Metal Gear and SGA. (There was a time when Mass Effect would be on this list, and I suppose in a way it still fits, but I won't lie; it's somewhat tainted.)

I've found myself rewatching Tolkien movies more and more. I've also been rereading the books. Just started my first read of the Silmarillion. Never managed to get through it before, but I'm determine to this time. I wouldn't say it is my happy fandom, but it has become one of my top ones.

The LOTR films are some of my all time favorite films. (If not my absolute favorites. It's hard to gauge, but I love them so much.) IMO they hold up well on repeated viewings in a way not many franchises do.

Silmarillion is a bit too dense for me (which I think is one of the main reasons its fans like it, so different strokes), but I should probably read it again one of these days to see if it would hold my interest better now. (Probably not, as I feel like my attention span has only gotten worse.)

The Children of Húrin was a bit more to my liking, but The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit are more my taste.

It may sound odd, but my go-to is not the LotR movies themselves, but the Appendices. I like sitting and listening to the DVD extras and all the thoughts and opinions of the cast and crew.

I don't think that's weird because one of the best parts of the extended DVD's were all the extras. The behind the scenes and commentary were the best I've seen for any film.
