I don't really think you can say there's a right or wrong way to write fantasy. Some people like his style, some don't. It doesn't mean he was wrong.
Yes, you can. You totally can. Just look at the Eragon series. Seriously, though, as a writer I can tell you that there is a right and wrong way to write everything. I can also tell you that Fantasy is one of the hardest genres to break into as a writer because it is so easy to write badly. And, as a writer, I'm telling that I don't like Tolkien's work, I like his ideas, and I kinda hate his writing methods. And I think C.S. Lewis is a better writer, and did fantasy better than Tolkien.
