So, who here is a LOTR fan? Which is the best book (including Hobbit and Silmarillion)? Which is the best character? Why are these books so appealing? What does everyone think of the New Line Cinema movies?

Wrong forum.... I suggest a move to "General"

I like LotR but I haven't read much of the books

First: This discussion should be taken place in the General Forum.

Second: The Silmarillion is the best, without any doubt.

Third: The best character (for me) is Fingolfin The Supreme King of all
Noldor, but the Silmarillion is full of very nice characters as Luthien Tinuviel, her father Thingol, Beleg Cuthalion, Turgon of Gondolin and many more. In LOTR, Gandalf is my personal favourite, Elrond too, and Glorfindel.

Fourth: The movies are ok, still missing some of the magic of the books, but anyway the job of Peter Jackson and the cast is amazing.
