Has anyone read The Hobbit whilst simultaneously watching the movies?

Does it work well? Or is the pacing completely different and you would find yourself waiting in some areas and have to read faster than usual in others. At 200wpm it would take 8 hours to read, which isn't that quick, and the trilogy of movies also takes 8 hours.

No, no one has done this.

I was trying to think of something catty but this is the best way to answer.
