What do you think of the Bakshi cartoon? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Oh good grief...anyone who hasn't seen the cartoons are in for a laugh.
While Rankin/Bass didn't do well with either the Hobbit or Return of the King, they still did better than Bakishi.
After all, Sam was turned into a blithering idiot. I believe an icon I saw recently sums it up; "Potato+Hunchback of notre dome= Bakishi Sam"
Oh, the 'Frodo Of The Nine Fingers'...*growls* I do not like it, not at all. Still, sometimes I find myself singing it for a laugh; the original sounds like the guy singing it is a goat.
Let's not forget Bakishi's Gandalf chasing Frodo across the room with his finger.
