Question for major Herzog lovers

I recently purchased the Herzog-Kinski boxed set as a blind buy and plan to fill my month with Herzog films. I've already watched a few, but have been delaying my planned Fitzcaraldo/Burden of Dreams double feature because I'm not sure of the order in which to watch them. Do you think it's preferable watching one film first over the other?

Watch the feature film first because otherwise you'll be thinking about what you saw in Burden and it may lessen the spell of the film.

lol, my brother just asked me the same question since I got him both of those for Christmas.

I told him to watch the movie first, in German (for some reason I prefer the German version to the English even though I don't speak German).

I'm sure in either order it would be fine though.
