The trilogy is a great movie series. Will these books make me like them better or worse?

I'm fine with this thread being forgot or deleted but I would like at least one real response as I am inclined to reading them now.

The books will make you like the movies less because the latter made nonsensical changes and are not as good.

The books are the greatest works of art of the 20th Century. Go read them now.

if anything, watching the trilogy makes you appreciate the books more.
i do love the films, but on every re-watch i notice something else i don't like about them, whereas the opposite is true for the books.

I think I liked the movies as a kid, read the full tetralogy twice in the last two years, tried to watch the movies again last month and they're absolute garbage. Your mileage may vary.
