I agree so much on LotR. Tolkien was an amazing wordbuilder, his created languages were fantastic and he practically created half of the fantasy cliches down to death now...but his actual writing just never worked for me at all. If he was writing a dissertation it might work, but as an exciting fantasy story? No. So many characters that get pulled out of nowhere and then never show up again, long dull passages that read like chunks from a textbook, Tom freaking Bombadil and don't get me started on the damn deus ex machina eagles. Seriously, I think the fucking eagles may be some of my least favorite fictional characters ever. "Hmm, I seem to have written my characters into a corner they can't get out of. What to do? Wait, I know! Giant eagles, who conveniently only show up at the very last minute!"
