The propose of this thread is for us to take pre-existing settings (such as Middle Earth, the Star Wars universe, and the Hyborian Age), and then state which game system (such as GURPS, Pathfinder, BRP, D&D, and Savage Worlds) would work best with them. Ideally, why the particular setting is ideal is also explained.

An example ...

Star Wars - Savage Worlds. I think Savage Worlds would be a perfect fit because of its streamlined, cinematic, easygoing nature. It would do a good job of simulating the lightning-paced action in the movies, as well as the visceral humour.
