Because the books are a well written original idea, and them movies because of the same and because they have been adapted very well to the big screen. The movies did the books justice which is always a good thing.
I think the creativity and imagination J.R.R. Tolkien had was amazing. I love the translation into the movies as well. I absolutely love the soundtracks! I am a pianist, and have used some of the music from the first movie in performances.

orlando bloom is hot! kinda like elijah wood, too!
hey, for those of you who find the books a little long, if you can just get through "the hobbit", it helps set the stage for the movies. there are some references in the first movie to things that happened in the book "the hobbit".
i really just like the battle sequences narrated through the book then told through the characters from Jacksons POV. oh yea and for return of the king they should have the orcs flingin the mens heads over the walls of minas tirith just like from the book!
Tolkien is an amazing writer...enough said! To be able to make up a new language, new origins and of course a whole new world is far beyong anyones reach. As for the movies, special effects were great, and nobody can complain about Orlando Bloom.
