I also recommend The Silmarilion as that will let you pick up on a lot of hidden references to the first age and such. 287 Edited April 16, 2020 by Frustration 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However if your trying to get Stormlight or Mistborn I'll give you leniency. Tolkien's legendarium is by far the most world-built setting ever and I love it for that but Sanderson is easier to read, so if your reading something good I'll let you make the call. 289 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once I'm (start &) finish Stormlight, then I will most likely read Lotr. Or do you think I should read the Hobbit first? 290 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotr movies gets a lot wrong but they are easier for younger audiences or for a first dip into Tolkien so, I have mixed feelings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Experience Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 I've only watched the hobbits and first lotr but definitely do the longer version cause it's better 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomerang Guy Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 well I really actually really enjoy the movies! I have seen all the Hobbit movies and all the lotr. And all I have is the extended versions (of lotr) so I have never seen the regular sized (is that the wright way to say it?). I also know lots of people that say that the Movies are just as good as the books as a separate story. I definitely recommend watching all of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recommend you do so it's fascinating. 299 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Archivist Posted April 17, 2020 Report Share Posted April 17, 2020 I mean, Tolkien was a wonderful author, but he seemed to have trouble with pacing. I mean, I've read about two hundred pages an almost nothing happened, which is really weird, because he wrote The Hobbit before LOTR and it had wonderful pacing. 300 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
