I didn't read LOTR, The Hobbit and The Silmarillion until I'd seen FOTR. I absolutely loved all of them. The most recent book I read before seeing the movie was The Perfect Storm. It doesn't usually spoil a movie for me to read the book first. And it doesn't bother me to read spoilers either.
I have Empire of the Sun and love it. Liked The Outsiders, but don't have the DVD. The version you described sounds good. I'll have to get it.
... my comment is longer than Roguems entry in the first place.. so.. I'll just stop babbling now...
