Lord of the Rings, no contest in books or films. LOTR is just epic, whereas Harry Potter is just an annoying teenager waving a wooden stick around.

While Potter can be an entertaining diversion sometimes, Lord of the Rings is a literary classic and a very good adaptation on film. Lord of the Rings by a considerable margin.

Potter novels are far better than Lord of the Rings, JRR Tolkein didn't know how to frame decent plots, he made up his own story as he wrote them, but his books are still considered literary classics because of the sheer amount of fantasy elements cleverly woven into an epic story.

LOTR for movies but not books because I haven't read them :P Harry Potter for books because the books are better than the films. I voted for HP though.

Lord of the Rings is an order of magnitude better, lorewise and filmwise.

It's not a comparison, its an opinion of which you prefer. I could ask you if you prefered ice cream over pizza. Both very different but you would still favour one over the other, girlfriend.

Seriously guys, the movies weren't that great in comparison with the books. Whereas I feel like the Harry Potter movies actually are better than their book counterparts in some ways.

LOTR completely obliterates Harry Potter in both books and movies.

Harry Potter is about kids, who for some unknown arbitrary reason, are so amazing at magic they can take on adults who have had years and years of experience.

LOTR has an elf that can shoot three arrows from his bow at the same time. ;)

How is this even a question, Lord of the Rings destroys Harry Potter. LOTR is epic, Potter is just fun.

Side note: Why the hell hasn't anybody shot Voldemort yet? Seriously, I doubt he could cast a spell fast enough to stop a bullet, so why not just take him out like that?

In my eyes, The Lord of The Rings is cinematic perfection. I do enjoy the Potter movies, and they have some of the best cinematography and digital effects I've seen in film, but it's really no contest. The very definition of the word 'epic' applies to no other movie more than The LotR. Haven't read the books for either, I'm just judging the movies.
