If your gm made this your next campaign (assuming you don't know this exists (the book or the movies)) what would be your reaction and expectations?

See DM of the Rings.
I don't know man. LotR is such a giant part of my childhood and the reason I got into DnD and later other ttRPGs in the first place, so it's hard to imagine myself without all those experiences.

What are you talking about? The hobbits leveled up a lot, Pip and Merry became great fighters. Aragorn switched from ranger to paladin. It's just the elf and the dwarf having an already high level.

Since I would be playing Boromir I would feel like the rest of the players don't take the game seriously enough. Then I'd realize that I am being that guy and everyone else is having fun with the way things are, but it's too late and the GM kills my character.

Boromir was quite clearly played by That Guy, right down to the blow horn at start of what is supposed to be a stealth mission, try to change the course of the adventure and get everyone killed and the attempted team kill and loot.
In the end DM kills his character off and he leaves in a huff.

CHOO CHOO ALL ABOARD THE RAILROAD!

You get to come back as Faramir, though.

stop describing the scenery and let me do something

>So, wizards are banned, DMPC are wizards, but they don't intervene as much and they don't use a lot of spells? That's better than the last time
>Well, your heroic quest is a bit bullshit, I rather go fuck around but for once you have an idea of what the fuck you want us to do

Best answer so far.
