Nop says something about the idiot directors :P HP is better written than LOTR which is too descriptive and repetitive.

Whatever makes you sleep at night Choulo!! :P

Seriously though its about context too. LOTR was written in a time where people would have had to use their imagination a lot to connect to the story whereas HP is a child of this new generation (meaning one that's inundated with CG and special effects)

Yes I don't deny that if you consider the time, LOTR is a better "achievement" but I as a reader hardly care about why it was written that way, I just want the book that I find more entertaining and that is by far HP.

I am currently reading the Goblet of Fire for the 4th/5th time (I read the entire series again every summer)

YET IT STILL FEELS GREAT! Any of u guys have the Red Nose Day books like Quidditch Through the Ages, Tales of Beedle the Bard and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them. U can easily download them online.

I have read LOTR and the Hobbit......before the movies I might add and nothing about it is boring. Granted I haven't read HP (not going to either) but only saw the movies but they haven't and won't ever inspire me to read the books. Whereas a lot of people were inspired to read LOTR from the movies. Says something about storylines eh :P

The books are a million times better.

The best series I have ever read, no doubt about that. I tend to read it like every summer and it's incredible because you still find some things you didn't notice before. And it all makes perfect sense.

I just wish the characters never got older and stayed young and the story would continue.
