easy one since LOTR was a book first LOTR is the best book I ever read, tho I don't dislike the movie
OT wins it if I compare the movies tho
but LOTR wins from the new SW movies with out a doubt
A) the phantom menace is way not close to LOTR
b) attack of the clones c'mon the movie was something u "had" to see just because it shows some key scenes in the bigger picture but besides that it wasn't any good but some eye-candy

LOTR so far has a better script than any of the Star Wars movies, in my opinion, although the script was based on books, whereas Star Wars is completely original.
It's a tough choice, but I'm going to stick with my Star Wars loyalty, because its more legendary and epic than LOTR will be, I think.

fire has a poin there.....it's one of the things i've been thinking. And i presume ep. III will be the same. But maybe just the key holding is an important part.
And yes, the Lotr script was way better than any star wars.
But i realy like SW too. I'm still sticking with both

I love Lord of the Rings as obviously a completely seperate movie. I like parts from Star Wars better than Lord of the Rings, and I like parts in Lord of the Rings better than Star Wars.

In the prequels of Star Wars there are too many scenes that leave you with an after taste. Sometimes good, sometimes bad. Lucas is good at making awesome scenes (Darth Maul vs Jedi, Jango vs Obi-Wan) etc, but he is also very good at making TERRIBLY DUMB LOOKING SCENES!!!! Like the whole SOUND OF MUSIC scene in Attack of the Clones, that was terrible! And the dinner scene, where Padme takes a huge bite out of a CGI'd apple. That jus made the movie look dumb and outta place.

Lord of the Rings is perfect when it comes to scenes and taste. I can't think of a single shot in that movie that left me with a bad taste. Except maybe that retarded DREAM LIKE sequence with the dude from Matrix speaking in elvish. He doesn't look too cool there. Other than that, Lord of the Rings has beautiful looking scenes that aren't ridiculous like some in Attack of the Clones.

I love both Lord of the Rings and Star Wars. I've never read a Lord of the Rings book, but the movie kicks ass. In comparison, I'll say Lord of the Rings is a BETTER movie- for so many reasons. But as a favorite movie, Star Wars wins the prize. But Lord of the Rings is right behind it.
cool

well of course the LOTR story is more complex, as its originally a BIG book of an epic tale. SW isnt meant to as complex.

mah's right
and well why u are waiting for TTT 10 times more then for AOTC is obvious FOTR was just plain simply an awesome movie while
TPM wasn't a great movie so normally u expect that sequels in a triology atleast will follow the line of the original one so...
