I enjoy only CT's that involve those Bond Villains, because people really try to imitate them. No others.

Bond villains, Sebastian Cabot as the devil, Kanamits (I hope, see below) and so on.

Physics grad here. Reality-based, and when you throw in quantum physics, reality is weird and exciting enough to put silly CT's and delusions to shame.

They are poor substitutes, and all their Bond Villain heroes lose bigly anyway. They choose not to notice. I choose to watch them fail (and try to limit the damage they do on the way down.)
