Talk:J. R. R. Tolkien vs George R. R. Martin/@comment-28938497-20160502190616

It's hard to say whether or not I'm disappointed in this. It's NOWHERE near as good, detailed or "does-justice-to-their-legacy" as Stephen King vs Edgar Allan Poe, but that was written by Watsky and Zack, who are both incredibly strong writers.

The thing is, Peter and Lloyd are simple, casual, accessible, lowest-common-denominator writers most of the time. (Peter more than Lloyd to be brutally honest) It's the production quality of the video that usually makes the battles that little bit more special. That's why I can't judge this one yet.
