Love the LOTR universe, can't get enough of it. The movies are amazing, I'd say Two Towers is my favourite, followed by FOTR, and then ROTK a distant third but still a great movie and overall an amazing trilogy.
The Hobbit is a great book and the movies are terrible and I will refrain from ranting about how bad and all the reasons they were bad. I've heard, maybe from someone on CP in the movie thread, someone made a Tolkien edit of the Hobbit movies where they cut out all the extra stuff Jackson threw in and made a 3.5 hour movie and that it is significantly better. I'd be interested in checking that out.
Shadow of Mordor was a great game, and I played War in the North as a local co-op with my girlfriend and we both loved it. I've heard good things about some of the LOTR themed board games so I need to check those out at some point too.
