I read the Hobbit 50 years ago give or take a couple years. What I remember is Bilbo climbing around a cave hiding from a dragon and finding a ring, hiding from Gollum, watching the first of three parts of the movie was like watching something for the first time, nothing looked even remotely like what I read so long ago but I have faith that Movie 2 will show some of the things I read.
and one last thing,
FUCK the NSA....

I enjoyed the LOTR movies as pure entertainment. I forgave any attempt at "meaning" or philosophy right at the beginning. Couldn't stand the first book, didn't finish it, left the others to collect dust. OTOH I actually read the Dune Trilogy. Again I forgave the pholosophy; enjoyed the movie too.
I read the Hobbit and the LOTR years ago and loved it. I couldn't get into the Dune novel but liked the hokey movie.

I think I made it into the second Dune novel in the series and burnt out. I loved the first one btw.
As for Lord of the Rings -- Tom Bombadil made me hate the entire book. It's me, I'm weird.

I have not, If I had going political I would have asked for opinions asked people to take sides, asked someone to defend the SOB's of the NSA, you know those good americans who spy on Good Americans.
May they all rot in HELL.
