Yes the LotR books are copyrighted. However due to a minor legal oversight the original US copyright on LotR was not valid and the books were published for a period of time by Ace taking advantage of this. As the US copyright was not valid Tolkien could take no legal action in court, but Ace was eventually forced by fan pressure to cease publication, the US copyright on the first edition text of LotR is still not valid. I believe this was corrected by properly copyrighting the text of a later edition of LotR in the US.
Some evil characters in LOTR are Sauron, Saruman, and their followers. In the Hobbit, it is mainly Smaug and other, lesser evil characters. In the Silmarillion, it is Morgoth.
The Lord of the Rings has been banned by various religious organisations, for example: Burned in Alamagordo, N. Mex. (2001) outside Christ Community Church along with other Tolkien novels as satanic. Source: 2007 Banned Books Resource Guide by Robert P. Doyle. Which is clearly ridiculous as the LOTR was written by a deeply religious man and the book clearly demonstrates this in the shaping of characters and what happens to them. In fact, Professor Tolkien wrote in a letter to a friend, describing the creation of the LOTR: 'a fundamentally religious and Christian work; unconsciously so at first, but consciously in the revision."
Luthien, though only mentioned in LOTR. It's the name he had put on his wife's grave. He put Beren on his own. Aragorn sang of this. He and Arwen were the modern version of this.
actually JRR Tolkien published only LOTR and the Hobbits as a beginning of the story but he was planning the world middlearth since he was at university. after he died his son took all the writings and published them. Silmarillion and the other books contains the whole partitions that JRR decided to put in the story. but the other parts and ideas that not decided to put in the story still exists. the unfinished tales contains this stories and ideas. if you read this tales you can understand that they are 'unfinished' and not overlap the whole story.

lotr 4 doesn't exist read the books they're better than the movies
The epic poem that inspired J.R.R. Tolkien was Beowulf. It influenced his creation of languages, mythologies, and themes in his own works, such as "The Lord of the Rings."
Oh yes. His son, Christopher Tolkien, has spent the past few decades collecting, editing, and glossing volume after volume of J.R.R. Tolkien's notes, drafts, and ideas. There are 12 volumes of these - called the History of Middle-earth - far more words than the LOTR, the Hobbit, and the Silmarillion combined. Some of these writings include ideas that Tolkien later rejected, others writings where he fleshed out ideas and concepts for his own satisfaction but which really couldn't be put into LOTR without completely bogging the text down.

No,LOTR BFME 2 is not better than LOTR BFME.
The difference is that one realm is written by C.S. Lewis (Narnia) and the other by Tolkien (LotR)....They both have very different creations... only SOME creations are similar and that's due to Lewis stealing Tolkien's work then getting it published faster....
One does not simply dislike LotR.
