LOTR is definitely my favorite, both the films and the books.
I tend to prefer science fiction and fantasy, but will enjoy anything with intriguing plot, original characters and convincing world-building.
I have grown tired of obvious agendas, "deconstructions," "subverting expectations," "post-modern takes on ..." and dragging actors out of retirement to shoot a sequel of that movie that was big 20 years ago because nostalgia is an easy sell. Let's just go back to good storytelling that's not pretentious.
