He took some content from The Silmarillion which is one of his lesser known books, and took some from some of the LOTR books as well. I'm ok with that if it helps bring the story together. But he added in some characters that changed the plot quite a bit, and changed other characters enough that it took the focus of the story off of Bilbo. The Hobbit is about Bilbo. It's his story. He also tried to make it some sort of epic story like LOTR. The Hobbit wasn't written to be epic. Oh, I better quit before I get going... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
