I love the books more than the movies because it seems to have alot more interesting plots in them.

EDIT: And more characters to learn about.

95% of fantasy books about elves & such suck after reading lord of the rings.
Fact.

I'm not too fond of the books or the movies.

I dont' know why. it seems interesting enough.
it just doesn't always hold my attention

I never read the books, but I adore the movies. I've just actually watched them with my bf the last time he was here to see me. There really good movies. Good storyline, well played out. Awesome war seens, and its really real looking when it comes to making the other types of things in the movies/books like the elves, and the hobbids and whatever.. they'll all have a very human look, and are played by people rather then compurter done.. making the movie seem stupid.. but with it all looking so real, it became believeable.. and more fun and interesting to watch.

I wish there were more, but then again if there were it would probalby get milked, and that would ruin it for most people.

I have had the books for ages. But all I do is smell them, because I like the smell of old books.
And I hated the movies! I either fell asleep, or walked away when watching each one of them!
