I see more talk of Game of Thrones than I did of Lord of the Rings (the acting is much better too). I don't think Game of Thrones will ever have that defining and clean sweep that the Academy gave Return of the King though. It's a toss up. I'd much rather watch Game of Thrones though.
That's an absolute lie. Ian McKellen, Cate, Sean Astin, Viggo Mortensen, Christopher Lee, Bernard Hill amongst others outperform the GOT cast supremely. The acting in GOT could stand to be a lot better.
