The Ralph Bakshi animated movie came out in 1978. It only goes so far as the Battle of Helm's Deep.<BR>In 1980 Rankin/Bass (the same guys that did the animated <I>Hobbit</I> and <I>Rudolph</I>) made an animated movie <I>The Return of the King</I>. It's actually worse than Bakshi's, if that's at all possible. The whole concept of the people that did <I>Frosty the Snowman</I> doing anything based on Tolkien is just wrong.<P>[ February 12, 2002: Message edited by: Bruce MacCulloch ]<p>[ February 12, 2002: Message edited by: Bruce MacCulloch ]
