I don't really understand why we need to draw parallels between two obviously different genres of story.
Rocky is human and people, in general, can relate to him.
Aragorn is not. We are not meant to relate to him.
Rocky is frosting, LotR is cake.
Two different types of heroes, both equally fulfilling a need that the people felt at the time.
