Honest question. Would anyone have different feelings for the movie if the LOTR trilogy didn't exist yet? And this was the first of six movies about middle earth?

Nope. I went into LOTR only having read the Hobbit, and I really loved that book. Read it 3 times before reading LOTR. I didn't even know of LOTR's existence until 2 months before its release. I went into LOTR not even knowing it was a trilogy, and was expecting the most anti-climatic ending ever, in that Frodo would just cross that damn river and throw it into the volcano. LOTR instantly became my favorite film, so I think I would very much enjoy this film at the time.
