&quot;And when I&#039;m gone, just carry on, don&#039;t mourn<br /> Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice<br /> Just know that I&#039;m looking down on you smiling<br /> And I didn&#039;t feel a thing, So baby don&#039;t feel my pain<br /> Just smile back&quot;-Eminem

Also, I used a Magic 8 Ball to get the answers, so either one could have won.

Not a problem.  By the way, had I been writing this, I would have included something about Doctor Who or Stargate.  Doctor Who would have won, I think.

Not bad, but I'd switch the order for Hunger Games and Harry Potter.  But that's just me.

I would love it if people commented on this. I wrote it as an English assignment so it isn't as good as it could be. I'd love to know what I could do to make it better.
