well yeah but only with one chick. pretty much ****ed the **** out of her, got ridiculously hammered, and went to a bunch of awesome parties. without sleeves, which i see you were doing as well. lack of sleeves is liberating.

yeah no not gonna read any tolkien. my knowledge of elves has been passed onto me through the keebler elves.

insulting tolkien's genius? get the heck outta here

i think i read a page from one of those books and had no care to go any further

"so, aragorn, son of of arathorn, brother of aralorn, whose sister araherr was the first queen of the blasted lands of dunahor, where dwells the krimanor, whose residence in the hill-ridden fields of the county feramore is much to the bane of the duke gerimor, son of ladimir..."

even your debased imitation of tolkien's luscious work is enough to give me a pretty big boner

hahaha

i enjoyed the books but it's just annoying that each scene has to take 30 pages to finally end.

adb is built like a girl

i just dont really like fantasy books. i did in like middle school. pretty much cormac mccarthy has been ruling my reading for the past year or so and i plan on continuing to read every book hes written.

looooooooooooooooooool

tolkien is a horrible writer, but his ideas and worlds are amazing.

GRRM will always reign best

the warcraft books ****in ruled read like 5 of them

GRRM is wonderful
i also love robert jordan
and i dont care, i still love tolkiens writing for the ridiculous grandiosity of it
same reason i love lovecraft tbh

im down with lovecraft. he only goes on the allusions sprees every now and then, and when he does its usually to names and places from other stories. tolkiens allusions just seem to be random **** that the reader has absolutely no knowledge of.

i love how poopty filmmakers still try to make films from lovecrafts material

lovecraft's style is reasonable i think. it really helps set the mood.

cool air is my favorite lovecraft

i was just talking about the labyrinthine quantities of adjectives in lovecrafts and tolkiens prose, which i think adds to both writers style

tbh tolkiens references make sense if you obsess over him as much as i do, maybe thats just me idk

the hobbit
two towers
fellowship
return of the king

tbh

lovecrafts use of adjectives is fitting though, like josh said it really helps set the mood. the picture in the house is probably my favorite, or rats in the walls.

mccarthy is a pretty pretentious writer himself. i mean, what other author has one sentence describing marauding indians that is an entire page long haha.

god rats in the walls is so amazing

@nostalgia: better not forget the silmarillion

I really like Lovecrafts At the Mountain of Madness.

anything related to the lovecraft/cthulhu mythos = the best

lovecraft's writing style is about the most hideous thing I've read, I couldn't read more than 3 or 4 short stories because he takes awesome ideas and makes them really, really boring

something about the picture in the house is just very unsettling to me. the tension created in it is unbelievable.

the end of rats in the walls is just incredible. the way lovecraft manages to describe the descent of somebody into insanity is just amazing.

Lolwut.

Nah, srsly. You just have to get used to his style. He takes a looong time to portray area's, but in the end I was glad he did, because it really adds so much to the books.

I think James Clemens is also a good fantasy writer. Anyone agree/disagree?

i'm not familiar with clemens, what did he write?

Puddn'head Wilson, Huckleberry Finn, etc

that was samuel clemens you silly goose

Ehrr, I mean the James Clemens that wrote the Godslayer series.

i havent read those, ill have to look him up

If anything Lovecraft's writing style is far more dryer than anything Tolkien wrote.
