Am I the only one who was introduced as a kid to Tolkein through this movie?
I loved it then and I still do now.
November 12, 2022 at 6:54 pm #286634Nope, It is what introduced me to Tolkien, I have all of the R&B movies on a flash drive dedicated to them (Well all tolkien things including youtube fan fic) NOT REPEAT NOT though the abomination of Amazon. No way it would ever go on that drive with works of true love and passion.
November 12, 2022 at 9:44 pm #286638I recall watching it. At the time I was more interested in the animated “The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe” (1979) film.
Both were (and still are) a great introduction to both novel series.
November 13, 2022 at 1:26 am #286646I totally forgot about the Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe animated. I had seen that too but not thought about it in forever. I am going to try to find it.
November 13, 2022 at 2:39 am #286647I’ve seen the animated 70’s version of ‘Lord of the Rings’ but not ‘The Hobbit’. My dad was lucky enough to see the animated ‘Lord of the Rings’ film at the cinema when it came out originally but that was through a film club that he was part of at school at the time. He had also seen ‘Jaws’ by the same means. I like the animated ‘Lord of the Rings’ film for what it tried to achieve at the time.
Fun fact; Tim Burton had worked as a background animated (but uncredited) on the animated ‘Lord of the Rings’ film.
