MOVIE: The Lord of the Rings [Animated, 1978]

Lions and tigers and divisive experimental animation styles oh my! We're taking a look at Ralph Bakshi's 1978 Lord of the Rings adaptation today and neither of us has ever seen anything like it. We discuss our first impressions and take a closer look at the mechanics of Bakshi's "mixed media" approach to animation. There are so many different art styles and directions on screen at any given time that the film develops a delirious, kaleidoscopic, totally unique character. After we finish up with the movie, we work through some of your wonderful and illuminating feedback!
