I was hoping for something much better than this when it came out - nothing equals the books.

How True, I think Poor Ralph Bakshi Bankrupted his Backers on this First Go at Lord of the Rings. Glad it paid off for Peter Jackson.

I remember seeing these as a kid. Although I preferred the movies done by Rankin & Bass, and animated by Topcraft (who later became Studio Ghibli, earning world renown for their work with Miyazaki), this wasn't bad either. Bakshi's version experimented with rotoscoping, which cut down on animation time.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel I absolutely love these animated Tolkien stories. I believe that Lord of the rings went all the way to battle of Helms Deep, then Return of the King picks it up.

I only have the 1st movie from this one and I think it covered the 1st two books. I hadn't realized that it was finished until I saw it all the way thru on You Tube.
