SM with no Center drain save post and lightning flippers is a blast both in speed, rules, and flow. I prefer the vault for art, call outs, display, and overall theme integration (not movie based).
LOTR is epic especially if you’re a fan of the theme. If you haven’t experienced the epic ness of LOTR, I highly recommend. But keep in mind, if you want to get deep into it, it’s a long player.
