"Both films make extensive use of magic, witchcraft and wizards"

I guess I have to take some exception to this comment. The Potter books are saturated with spells, etc. but LOTR relies more on action and dialogue to tell the story.

Yeah, I think Tolkien put "magic" in the same category with machinery, which he didn't like all that well.
