Tolkein. Heavily. He credits him in his books. Among the various accusations of plagiarism Tolkein ranks quite highly on the list of authors that Paolini allegedly rips off. The fourth Star ars film is also pretty high on that list, as the plot of Eragon reads incredibly similarly to it, along with many film critics making the comparisson upon the release of the film. But, Star Wars rips off The Hidden Fortress, so the credit for that story just keeps on going back.
