( this version is more disney like...) It uses rotoscopie and regular film ...
it turned sam into some kind of stupid farmer...
And here it is legolas who comes to save frodo from the nine , before getting into rivendel...

I remember watching those as a little kid, they were my first introduction to Tolkien's work. They still hold a soft spot in my heart, especially The Hobbit.

Thanks, garmenhord.

Hmm... I remeber seeing a little bit of these films a few years ago... Made me sick. Ah, well, might give it another chance though.

Yeah, I suppose so, but I still don't like it. Lucky me that I don't have to watch them then. :-D

The only thing I remember disliking is the Wood Elves, in The Hobbit. Green skin, really? But, other than that I quite liked it. Especially, Bilbo.

Bilbo isn't. Only the Wood Elves have green skin, if I remember correctly. It's been a long while though...

Return of the King is one of those movies that get one and five stars simultaneously. I still like to sing with 'like-minded-friends' the good old "Where there's a whip, there's a way" orc march every now and then.

LOL, Pasi, now you've got those songs stuck in my head! :lol:

You're right, "Where there's a whip, there's a way", is a classic. :wink:

that song is just addicting... i want to have it to play it over and over again :p
-- it's just a pity that they use the same animation in it over and over again... but since it's old i can understand it : )

i found the song on the net... in mp3 form
but i can't find fifteen birds
