Do you think the lord of the Rings book is better than the film? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The books, of course! Because they are amazing, captivating, masterpieces of literature. The movies are just really well done visual adaptations of Tolkien's work. Not an original story. And nothing can compare to someone coming up and creating their own original story (and world) from scratch.
