GoT posts go in the GoT general. Go post this there.

No one cares what you say goblin worshipper.

...

GoT general–→

...

Read the books, they aren't nearly as nihilistic. Media kikes strike again.

Why is this shit posted outside the quasimodo faggotry posts?

Keep it in one thread.

...

...

You have no idea. For years now whenever a site brought up LOTR or both LOTR and GoT (or just discussed best books or fantasy settings), there are shits who actually get cheesed off because they hate it when Tolkien is put above this fat hack or if the GoT books didn't get on the top ten books lists. Someone outright say that Tolkien/LOTR suck because they're outdated or even bigoted. And don't get me started on the LOTR movie fags vs GoT tv fags.


Also keep GoT shit in the GoT gas chambers containment threads and boards.

Goes in the general.

...

Yeah, I've had a few arguments with people who considered LotR 'problematic' for the most retarded reasons, while praising GoT as brilliant.

Robert E Howard was the US Tolkien, not this fatfuck.

...

Please do not desecrate the name of one of the greatest american authors with your maymay please.

if he was so great, why did he commit sudoku?

Burgerland is a shitty place to live in.

Next you will be telling us that Frazetta is great American artist.

...

…but he was.

Nope, too commercial and too dumb.

The very thought is absurd.

You mean L. Ron Hubbard

Even the japs were copying his style back in the 80s.

So like GRRM then? I can't think of any American authors who have come even close to Tolkien.

what a bitch ass nigga

I have no smug strong enough for this.

Lovecraft is bigger than Tolkien.

Robert E Howard is nearly the same as Tolkien because they deal in the same subject.


Fuck you, he just loved his mother.

I'm not saying americans can't make marketable kitsch that sell well but that America lacks high culture. As far as kinetic and erotic fantasy art goes Frazetta is pretty good but he doesn't create fine art.

nigger what are you talking about barely anyone knows who lovecraft is, try mentioning his name sometime you leave your basement
everyone knows lord of the rings.

Your country is young. One day you will produce works of art that are worthy of serious consideration and praise. Rome was not built in day, yes?

well, he was from the South…

Everyone knows Cthulhu and lovecraft.

Everyone knows LOTR, but they do not know Tolkien.

Peter Jackson is more popular than Tolkien if you count "everyone".

Nigger what?

Since the end of WW2, nobody has created "fine art".

But we already produce plenty.

You niggers live in american culture and speak our language.

Everyone knows chtulhu, they have no idea who lovecraft is
I'm sure deadmau5 knows who cthulu is
fucking kidding yourself honestly

Lovecraft has more google search than Tolkien.

There is no need for anger, you simply haven't built real identity for your country yet. When that happens, then the culture will produce what you want. Exporting your celebrities and consumer goods not what you think it is.

I wasn't talking about Tolkien's popularity not being matched but the quality of his works.

Of that I'm well aware. Thanks for fucking up two thousand years of culture and civilisation, Allies.

There is no anger, since it's becoming reality.

The american culture is encompassing and eating the world.

If you want to calculate quality then Lovecraft is more imaginative in his lore and Robert E Howard absolutely matches Tolkien in myth study and world building.

Confirmed for only watching the movies, and probably only The Hobbit at that.


Yeah, only the entire fantasy genre fell for that meme.

Typical American, pride easily hurt and quick to boast. I still like your people but much growing to do. Like a teenager who desperate to be seen as adult.

Shove it up your ass, whatever you are.

American "culture" is barbarism, warped identity and a worship of the self. Librulism, anti-traditionalism, victim culture, capitalism, white self-loathing … nothing good ever came out of the colonies.

Yeah, that frontier spirit, cowboy and american spirit sure are nothing at all.

They have potential, mostly problem is gained too much power and influence too fast. No real trials and growing pains. They think they are one of their comic book heroes, invincible and always right. They will learn in time.

...

Says the faggot who spends time on an american film board.

shots fired

From what see in all threads, you don't like your countries movies either. This board is not much serious anyway, all fun and games. Like old /int/ but with shit films instead of flags.

haha, smugness towards ""american culture""", I like where this is going.

Euro user, like you said, burgers are young, but it seems they'll always be, it's like a country of eternal adolescence, therefore for example that kind of edgy nihilistic and obese US version of Sir Tolkien that is GRRM and that horrible shitcom.

>>>/normalfag/

It's real fuckin' 4/lit/ in here.

lol

don't forget jew-cock suckingr 24/7

especially white goys dying for israel/big bank interests

ayy

...

It's like saying that american cuisine is the best because of McDonald's

McDonald's is awesome though

...

...

You do know that before the movies came out lotr was seriously studied along the greatest classic literature, right? After the films made it mainstream entry-tier normie fantasy the studies stopped because studying mainstream is not cool.

You're pretty adorable, GRRM, but this is a bit too pathetic even for you.

Nice projection.

Meh, I thought it was softcore porn for teenagers who can't into Internet.

Sounds like you folks would rather enjoy a hammer and sickle to a hamburger. Go be not free someplace else.

...

This is true, but it's also true that Lovecraft and Howard are among the best things America ever produced and should go into the western canon in the future as is Planescape: Torment

Movies were a mistake, though. Now excuse me, I'm gonna go see if Ghostbusters rip is out. I wonder how terrible it's gonna be.

There were many writers better than him, but the most comparable would be Herbert. Tolkien was not that great of a writer, but he was excellent at building worlds. His stories were almost an excuse to just show the amazing world he created.

Frank Herbert was as good as Tolkien when it comes to building worlds, bur he is also a much better and efficient writer. Herbert doesn't waste reader's time with pointless meandering, or six page songs that add little to nothing to plot or setting. If Tolkien were to write Dune, it would probably be five books long.

didn't need you to tell me that, like most actual humans I've read Nietzsche

Game of thrones doesn't work. If every noble is a fucking disgusting pig, and the religion is non-existant, then why does anybody give a shit? There would be no civilization, for the opportunistic mercenaries and warriors would turn on the nobles, then on themselves, and the farmers wouldn't last longer than a season backstabbing each other.

I get it, there was some sly court dealings, but that implies there was some sort of pretense like Stannis. But if they straight up don't give a shit, then there is no reason the kingdoms should exist.

Of there is not a conglomeration of honest men, then no one would do the honest work.

It's edgy for edginess' sake.

...

They're both shit tbh.

The grim days before mommy joi porn.

That's because no one knows who Lovecraft is.

...

GRRM is an American hippy, you can't find anyone that understands feudalism less.

Just because you failed to understand something that does not mean it was pointless. I like Herbert but he's just another shitty orientalist with his 2exotic4u drapings when it comes down to it.

Only thing I failed to understand was how relevant and necessary were tangents like Tom Bombadil and Hobbit crew running nude in the hills, or wasting pages on overly detailed description of trivial things that are soon completely abandoned. I am not saying that these parts should be outright removed, but Tolkien spent too much time on those tangents that ultimately don't contribute much if anything.

Dune was already six books long.

it's called world-building

look it up sometime

Redditors and Tumblers love Lovecraft, without having ever read any of his works.
If they did, they probably wouldn't love him.

...

The author and OP are babies that watch too many Disney movies.

"And that’s another of my pet peeves about fantasies. The bad authors adopt the class structures of the Middle Ages where you had the royalty and then you had the nobility and you had the merchant class and then you have the peasants and so forth. But they don’t seem to realize what it actually meant. They have scenes where the spunky peasant girl tells off the pretty prince. The pretty prince would have raped the spunky peasant girl. He would have put her in the stocks and then had garbage thrown at her. You know.

I mean, the class structures in places like this had teeth. They had consequences. And people were brought up from their childhood to know their place and to know that duties of their class and the privileges of their class. It was always a source of friction when someone got outside of that thing. And I tried to reflect that.”

George Martin.

kill yourself ignorant reddit nihilist

it's like poetry

When did Holla Forums become so scared of R rated violence? Not everything needs to be for children.


You don't know what that word means. Characters die because they screw up badly. Robert, Eddard, Robb, etc. Good for Martin for getting rid of character shields.


Useless buzzwords are all that you have.

Jon Snow and Khaleesi say hi

Grimdarkness is the most infantile of ways you can depict a feudal society. The Disney approach may be ignorant and juvenile but going full edgelord is even worse.

Nah, it's cooler to hate Lovecraft nowadays since he was an evil privileged racist.

And give the church/nobles an excuse to kill him and take his land? Not bloody likely.


It's not that his stuff is too dark, it's that it's pointlessly dark in places. It's like Elfen Leid, just not to the point where it's so dark it's funny.

indeed user, but pleb nihilist sure can't get the fact there might be in fact more true medieval mood and true european artistic influence in Disney's Sleeping Beauty than in their obese leftist fantasy shitcom

Are you a female? Because you talk like a bitch.

If you pussies can't handle fake violence, then how can you survive in the real world? Read the news and learn what muslims did to hostages in their Paris massacre. That's real life.
