      @Duolingo Owl Alright, what is your argument? Would like to listen to it. Tolkien's life work was his legendarium, and basically invented modern day fantasy. Lord of the Rings is among the highest selling books of all time, and has been a revolutionary book ever since. Not sure how Martin could beat that. He is a good writer i'd say, but noone beats Tolkien's entire lifework.

      Going into an argument as to which lore is deeper, is almost pointless to do in a comment thread, one thing though, is that saying Martin's writing is more complex than Tolkien's is quite a stretch. I mean, if you read the works of both writers, you would clearly see the difference in scale. Side Note : this was Martin Vs Tolkien, not Lotr vs ASOIAF. So its basically the entire works of both writers.

      A point on originality of novel material. There is nothing new under the sun. Originality mostly consists of not making your source material obvious. Tolkien was as original as a person could be, really, while being painfully obvious about his parallels. Martin is also painfully obvious about his source material. But all in all, who could have inspired Tolkien’s stuff? Martin has decades of t he genre to work with. Tolkien invented the damn genre out of adaptations of centuries old legends and personal war experiences

  • @stephenfletcher5391
    @stephenfletcher5391 8 років тому +38

    The rap was close to even though I agree J.R.R. Tolkien had better points in the wrap which also makes sence, for if you compare the two writers I think J.R.R. Tolkien wins easily. Tolkien became big on his own and basically created the fantasy genre with new races and languages on his own, without needing to rely on sex, tv, the suggestions of others to put in Dragons, etc. His World is far more in dept and yet seems more fantasy like. While George R. R. Martin seemed to rely a lot more on the opinions of others and the movies. Many who love the GoT movies has not even read the George R. R. Martin books.
    Lord of the Rings was King of the movies and Game of Thrones king of series, but in writing Lord of the Rings has had far more readers and influences and also deals with far more diverse cultures, races and Places. George R.R. Martin even admits to being influenced by J.R.R.Tolkien and has the R.R. from him too.They are very differnt style writers where Tolkien is the more romantic, using poetry, love, morals and far more sensitive characters than Martin who has a much tougher and rougher style, with far greater focus on violence, nudity, betrayal, torture, nasty characters and moving from action to action without a lot of scene setting, adventure or discription.J.R.R. Tolkien would be like classical, new age, folk, film music. To Martin more heavy metal, hard rock or techno feel to it.I love G.R.R. Martin and the Game of Thrones, but I would take J.R.R. Tolkien and the Lord of the Rings in comparision any day. Martin is too political, chaotic, violent and sex focused for my liking. I prefer a fantasy which has more feel of longing for something better, and Lord of the Rings has far more of that. Martins series really feels like it comes from this World, Tolkiens books feels like it from a World better than this one.

I have to say,Tolkien was predictable in some works, but mostly it worked for him like 99.9% of the time. While George was predictable except in parts. His third book was less predictable than the first two I'll give him that. As to the Raps, Tolkien killed it.

    I'm sad that they didn't mention how Tolkien and count dooku were close friends.
    seriously.
    look it up. Christopher Lee were close friends. in fact, Tolkien and Lee decided that if lotr ever became a major film, that Lee would play gandalf.
    in the end he played saurman.
    cool little fun fact, when Christopher Lee showed up on set for lotr he walked right up to the guy who played gandalf (can't remember his name) amd directly told him:
    "I should have been gandalf."

      Ian McKellen. He did a beautiful job as Gandalf. But I find the idea of Lee playing Gandalf very intriguing. Besides, Lee was a huge fan of the books. I read an interview of him... he said he re-read LOTR every year. The guy is epic.

    I think Tolkien won. I've never seen a full episode of Game of Thrones but I just started watching your reactions to the show and may start watching it in the future. I played the first episode of the Telltale game which was entertaining but it could be kind of confusing with the vast amount of characters and mythos behind the story.
