It has a special place in my heart because I saw it at age three, making it my real introduction to Tolkien (or Tolkien-related stuff, anyway). All the same, I thought it was embarrassingly corny even then. Yes, really.

Not to say that PJ's version manages to avoid corniness.

EDIT: Maybe it's just that I wasn't allowed to smoke pot when I was three.
