Which is your favorite? I pepersonally prefer GoT but love both. (Hobbit not so much.)

I love GoT, but LOTR by a very long way.

honestly, not much of a fan of Lord of the Rings.
Love Game of Thrones though so easy choice for me.

Oh and Dannys tits give GOT an automatic win.

Lord of the Rings is a beautiful story about the perserverence of good over evil through sacraficed.
GoT is written for immature teenagers.

Lord of the Rings and its not close.

Lord of the Rings, because it has a conclusion.

GoT; could never get into LotR.

I think you have GoT confused with Twilight. Either that or you're a huge troll.

Tolkien is infinitely better in every way.
Posted on 2/18/16 at 12:15 am to big_C
GoT because of boobies and stuff.
Posted on 2/18/16 at 12:26 am to big_C
I love GoT. Absolutely love it.
Lord of the Rings is WAY better, though. IMO.

Without LOTR, there is no Game of Thrones

Is this a joke? GOT is nice but Lord of The Rings is High and Mighty. LOTR Books and Movies are better so frick off. Posted on 2/18/16 at 1:01 am to ladytiger118
I wouldn't have said it if I didn't think what I said is dead accurate.

Without Buck Rodgers and Flash Gordon there is no Star Wars.
The OP asked which was people's favorite, not which is the best.
Comparing ASoIaF to LotR is irrelevant, especially considering there is quite a lot of Marion Duron's Accursed Kings series influence in ASoIaF than LotR.
If you'll look at Martin's other works you find that he is a science fiction writer more than a fantasy writer. He has a whole universe known as The 1000 Worlds which spans millenniums where the earth of today is just a fragment of the past. It involves wars between a multitude of races across vast galaxies and worlds. There is even a theory that the planet that Westeros, Essos, and Southeros are on is a forgotten planet within The 1000 Worlds that was laid to waste due to "atomics" used in interplanetary strife. Now that planet has maintained its ignorance to social and technological progress to insure that it never makes the same mistakes that the races of the past made.
If anyone wants to take the above as a spoiler, feel free to RA, but I doubt that is truth.
Oh, and don't make me choose between the two OP. Tolkien, to me, is up there with Homer and Vergil. And reading the four main books plus The Silmarillion I would equate with... shite, I don't know. Words can't express it for me at this time. But as soon as I finished reading ASoIaF I started reading it again. I've never done that. I also have the companion book A World of Ice and Fire as well as A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms. So let me just love them like two paternal twins. Only one stayed in the womb for an extra forty years.

If this was a book topic, I'd say you had something. However there's really no comparison between these two as they're very different. Though, I would totally be down for a LOTR television show on HBO.
