Source material, it’s LOTR all the way. The Hobbit movies were an abomination though. Unforgivable.

OK we all have a little bit of nerd in all of us .So are you with The Jedis or The Hobbits???

Me, I am with the Jedis.


Those Lord of The Rings movies annoyed me BIG TIME!!! Just a bunch of walking and I wanted to see those annoying Hobbits wiped out!!! .All the scraggley hair and high pitch voices remind me of annoying type dogs like those "Benji" type movies. Some cute scruffy little poochie.MAN I WANTED THEM TO DIE!!!!


So who are you with and why???

Simple
LOTR is much better IMO


Satisfied?

This is actually a tuff call for me, but have to go with Star Wars


It's a tough call for me too.

I don't think the Hobbit would've been as good had it came out the same time Star Wars did.

I don't know.. I like the characters more in Star Wars but I like The Lord of the Rings story more if that makes sense.

I have to be in a mood to watch Star Wars. I could watch TLOTR once a week if I had to.


Game Of Thrones smashes both though. It's not a movie but it's on the same epicness scale IMO.

Agree 100% except when get to Game of Thrones. Ha! I’m one of the only people on the planet who hasn’t seen a single episode.

You have to watch it. It's the best story ever.

The journey with that show has been so fun. It's the only show that I've ever watched where im glad I didn't binge watch it.

The weekly discussions and trying to figure out whats going to happen next has been a blast. I'll be sad to see it go.

As for the Lord of the Rings. I like the first two books, but I've never really been a fan of the third book / movie. My favorite is the Two Towers though. That was easily the best for me.

All else fails when compared to the power of the Star Trek Universe!
If the Empire (or First Order/take your pick) AND the Alliance combined forces against the Jem'Hadar, I would put my money on the Jem'Hadar emerging as the victor. Yep. I said it. :confused::p

Lord of the Rings--Just a bunch of walking and "Ooooh everyone look at My Precious".Lot of closeted overtones.I thought it was going to turn into Deliverance in the woods!!! ""Ooohhh play with my Sword of Gandoor""!!! Where is Darth Vadar and The Empire to wipe them out!!!

I will go with the Jedi, that mind manipulation skill means even eagle fans can be taught to see sense.

Although both enemies are awful and come from the Elmer J. Fudd school of shooting and aiming....
Can storm troopers hit barn doors........:lmao:

I thought the first 2 Hobbit movies were good, but the 3rd was indeed a complete abomination. There was not much story left for a 3rd movie and then they tried to draw it out extra long.

The Simarillian, The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings are simply the greatest fantasy books ever written.
Now the LOTR and Hobbit movies are an abomination.
