If you wait on reading a book(I could understand FOTR, but not TTT, ROTK) just so you don't ruin the experience of seeing the film isn't what I would do. You said "Two different types of experiences", you should'nt have to make a time-line on when to read the next book.</STRONG><HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>The reason I'm choosing to wait is that I think the book can "ruin" my movie experience, but I don't think the movie can ruin my reading experience. No matter how much I tell myself that the movies are adaptations, I know I will end up being disappointed somehow if I have a set story in my head. So I guess to elaborate on what I said about two experiences, I think the order you do the two effects how much you can successfully enjoy the two separately.
