Tolkein's works elevate, celebrate, and romanticize virtues such as dignity, stoicism, humility, loyalty, honor, self-restraint, duty, yearning, and self-sacrifice.

GRRM's only bring these concepts up to have them fail in the face of unrelenting human ugliness. The entirety of the GoT cycle is pigs fucking in the mud.
