13. My strategy for LOTR was going to be.....
See a movie and then read the equivalent book.

That way, I'd see the movie without any preconceived notions of how things should look.

So I see the first movie and then start reading the Hobbit (for establishing the background) followed by Fellowship of the Ring. Well, by about 1/2 way through FOTR I was so hooked that I bought the other two and ripped through them before TTT came out last year.

Anyway, it turned out not to take away from any enjoyment of watching the second film and I think I enjoyed it a bit more because I could follow the storyline a bit better having read the books.
