Hey there.
Im new to the whole LOTR world.
I loved the movies, but I cant help to disrespect Tolkien from whoring his story just to create books aswell on top of the movies.
As I mentioned I loved the movies but the whole book thing I dont agree on.
anyhow, im glad I found this forum.
Kind regards Sauroman.

Hello Sauroman , welcome to the forum .
Had Tolkien not written his books there would have been nothing to base the films upon , The FOTR and The TTwas first published in 1954 with ROTK being published in 1955. Of course all publishing companies hit the bookshelves with movie tie-in reprints around the times of the films since they realised that an upsurge in interest would boost their sales . Grab a copy and have a read and you will find that a lot was left out of the movies .

Hello I'm not sure I quite understand what you mean by "whoring" his story just to create books? But we welcome you here and enjoy any input you have! Enjoy the forum!
