Chip the glasses and crack the plates! That's what Bilbo Baggins hates
The hobbit movie cartoon is a masterpiece of brilliant storytelling. From the songs to the characters and the voice acting. You fall in love with the story all over again. And I hate to say it but I enjoyed this version of the hobbit better than jacksons weird cgi version of it. This is a must buy for hobbit fans.
Good find! However, my LOTR (1978) is not MA…

Additionally, if you own the discs, both should be D2D through VUDU.

I bought these on dvd a while back and am curious about the quality of these HD streams. If it is a decent upgrade over dvd I'd buy it

Not sure about LOTR, but if The Hobbit stream is derived from the Blu-ray (most likely), then it's not good: https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Th...52/#Review

Had some Amazon digital credits and I love thesee books/stories so i bought em both. They both immediately populated from Amazon to my Apple library. But, as another person said, only The Hobbit is on my movies anywhere list, which is strange to me, cause it went to Apple right away¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah the Peter Jackson Hobbit films were a travesty. The Hobbit should have been ONE three hour movie, not three of the damn things. That trilogy was 100% fan milking.

I own both of the DVDs as well as both digital neither are an improvement IMO
