-->'''Tolkien''': Now, we all know that the world is full of chance and anarchy / So, yes, it's true to life for characters to die randomly / But newsflash -- the genre's called FANTASY / It's MEANT to be unrealistic, ''YOU MYOPIC MANATEE''!
* In the same battle, Tolkien mocks Martin for the fact that his books have sold less copies than ''Literature/FiftyShadesOfGrey''.

* In ''Harry Potter vs. Luke Skywalker", Harry takes multiple shots at the sequel trilogy and especially the way it portrayed Luke, saying the people behind it "compact[ed his] character to trash".
* In Ragnar Lodbrok vs. Richard the Lionheart, Richard tells Ragnar that his story "ended worse than ''Series/GameOfThrones''" and says that if he wanted to fight [[UsefulNotes/NationalFootballLeague loser Vikings, he'd go to Minnesota]].
