I kinda agree with him on the 'nothing changes' in Tolkien; in fact, it won't be a popular opinion, but I had difficulty reading it; and in fact I'm also bored to death with the films. In other words, I'm not a fan... Moorcock on the other hand I really enjoyed, just because he throws his 'hero' around like a out of control puppet. It's really like a 'game of throne' before it was trendy. Poor hero will get to kill his favourite elf queen just because his sword is evil, AND will keep him alive because of it; twisted :-)

I also agree about Tolkien. back in the 1970s I read a lot of sci-fi and fantasy and I was a big fan of Moorcock. I forced myself to read Lord of the Rings but it was difficult! I've subsequently watched some of the films but my opinion hasn't changed.

It's not that 'nothing changes' in Tolkien, but that nothing changes for the better.

It took me more than a year to slog through Fellowship of the Ring and I can usually binge read a novel in a day or two.
