I don't understand why anyone would think LOTR is sci-fi. When I think of Sci-fi, I think of Star Trek. Sci fi usually takes place in the future (and present) or has aliens. LOTR has neither. In fact Tolkien mentioned somewhere in the books that his tales of Middle Earth took place in the past.
A stupid thing a friend of mine said about the books was "It's boring, and the movies too long." That remark made me wonder how much brain is in his head.
