About this movie:
  • Ralph Bakshi's animated adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's revered Middle-earth saga captures the dark mood of the books extraordinarily well. The film covers the first half of the trilogy--"The Fellowship of the Ring" and the earlier part of "The Two Towers"--as Frodo (voiced by Christopher Guard), the cousin of Bilbo Baggins from "The Hobbit", is given the all-powerful ring sought by the evil Sauron of Mordor. So begins his adventure, as he must elude Mordor's black riders in an effort to prevent the ring from returning to its owner and thereby signaling the end of Middle-earth. Even with the mighty wizard Gandalf as his ally and faithful friends Merry, Sam, and Pippin by his side, Frodo is still up to his hobbit neck in peril.

It was pity that stayed his hand. Pity, and mercy: not to strike without need.

Pity it's only the DVD. Blu-Ray is still about 20 bucks.

I watched this semi recently and was surprised how many scenes were staged almost identically between this and Peter Jackson's.

Same here. PJ must have watched it as a kid and couldn't get it out of his mind.

I remember seeing this as a kid, it was intense! Probably need to re-watch, and see what adult me thinks.
