I've never read The Hobbit.

i've never read it either lol

By Smaug's Scales.... Go read it! (Or watch the animated film)

Though the book is better... the film was my introduction to the book and, as I remember, pretty close in plot and characterizations.

well i have watched the  2 movies ... the end of the second is soooooo frustrating

 

I've never read The Hobbit.

 

I've only read The Hobbit like twice I think.

 

LotR at  least a dozen times

Silmarillion about 10. I didn't have a copy for a while.

I didn't even know there wasn't supposed to be a bunny sledge. I had to check that with Turin. Luckily he knows everything.

 

And I read tLotR first - so when I tried to read the Hobbit after it seemed a bit simplistic and childish.

And now you have a copy with the words spelt correctly

 

And pretty pictures.

I think I liked the Hobbit more because it was simple enough for me to understand. I had began reading only a few months before that

Because it is a child's book.
