Episodes IV - VI > LOTR > Episode III

Episodes I-II count as bloopers -_-.

As literature goes, you guys have to realize that you won't understand LOTR movies until you read LOTR books, including the ultra-long Silmarillion. There is so much there that you can't get from a film.

So with books, LOTR tops Star Wars with immense ease.

You don't need to read the books to get the movies, but it sure does help.

I've read 2/3 of the trilogy, and The Hobbit, and surprisingly, I actually like the movies more. Probably because I saw them first though.
