I have to admit I am a Harry Potter fan. I have seen all of the Harry Potter movies except the most recent and I have not seen all of the LOTR movies yet. Harry Potter has a bit more fantacy to it than LOTR has.

Harry potter is ok...
but u cannot compare it with the great LOTR...
the above is regarding the storyline....
If u are taking the movie LOTR is still the best...
Peter Jackson researched it for years and made it into a movie which no one dared...HP is good but it's no match for LOTR

Both of these movies are great works. They both have good scripts and writers. They both have good characters and good actors that bring the characters to life. I could not pick one over the other because I like them both. They are two different movies that is for sure. They are both fictional.
The lord of the rings were made all at the same time. This was a three year project that kept the actors out of circulation for a long time. However, all three lord of the ring movies had the same actors at all times.
I think at some point the Harry Potter movies are going to have to replace the kids playing in the movie now. It is taking them too long to put out one Harry Potter movie and the original actors are getting older but the characters in the movies must stay young. This is hard to do. In each movie Harry only ages one year however, it may take two years or more before the next movie is made. I do hope they can get all seven movies done before the actors playing the parts now are too old to continue playing them.
Both movies are great and If you have not seen them you should put them on your to do list.

Well I like both movies but I find LOTR better because of the effects and the story itself. I think one needs to have great imagination to give justice to a certain story/book. I have read the LOTR book, sometimes I cant imagine what a specific character looks like until I have watched the movie.
