 The Lord of the Rings - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lord of the Rings began as a personal exploration by Tolkien of his interests in philology, religion (particularly Roman Catholicism); fairy tales, and Norse and Celtic mythology.
The plot of The Lord of the Rings builds from his earlier book The Hobbit and more obliquely from the history in The Silmarillion, which contains events to which the characters of The Lord of the Rings look back upon in the book.
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring was released on December 19, 2001.

 J. R. R. Tolkien - Free Encyclopedia
Tolkien at first thought that The Lord of the Rings would tell another children's tale like The Hobbit, but it quickly grew darker and more serious in the writing.
Outside academia, most people have come to know Tolkien as the author of The Lord of the Rings trilogy and of its precursor, The Hobbit.
Ralph Bakshi directed an earlier movie in 1978 (made with the rotoscope technique), which however covered only the first half of the books.

 The Return of the King (1980 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The movie picked up approximately where Ralph Bakshi's animated adaption of The Lord of the Rings had left off in 1978, but was filmed in a very different style, and tied in more with Rankin/Bass's earlier The Hobbit than The Lord of the Rings.
The Return of the King is an animated adaptation of the novel by J.

 The Return of the King (1980)
The Rankin-Bass team, following their own 1977 The Hobbit and Ralph Bakshi& incomplete 1978 Lord of the Rings, returns to finish the job, sort of, with The Return of the King.
Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings is a much more adult work, but Rankin-Bass essentially makes a kid movie out of it.
Unfortunately, this style works even less well here than in The Hobbit, which really is a children’s story.

 J.R.R. Tolkien's Return of the King CED Web Page
The storyline of "The Return of the King" takes place immediately after "The Two Towers," but a major portion of that volume was left off the animated movie version by Ralph Baskhi that came out the year before in 1978.
This page covers "The Return of the King," while the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings are on separate pages.
Tolkien's published "The Return of the King" is divided into two books that largely concern two separate but related storylines which makes adapting them for video or movie viewing difficult.

 The Return of the King (1980) (TV)
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
While these plots didn't make it to the movie and that's a shame, they are not essential to the main story.
This TV movie is considered by many fans to be vastly inferior to Bakshi's 1978 movie.

All copies of 1978's "The Lord of the Rings" should be banned for being such a horrid disgrace to all that is Tolkien.
I think the most entertaining thing about "The Lord of the Rings" is laughing at these absolutely disgustingly bad designs.

 The Lord of the Rings (1978 movie) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lord of the Rings is the title of an animated film produced by Ralph Bakshi, and released to theaters in 1978.
However, several unresolved story developments between The Lord of the Rings and The Return of the King were left unresolved, especially the betrayal of Frodo by Gollum, and the attack of Shelob the monster spider-creature.
Though the film was a commercial and critical failure, it created enough interest in The Lord of the Rings that the BBC decided to adapt it for the radio.

Ralph Bakshi's ill-fated 1978 animated version of "Lord of the Rings" is univerally loathed by Tolkien fans and non-fans alike.
The Hobbits' theme is developed further in later tracks, such as "Riders of Rohan", "The Dawn Battle: Theoden's Victory", and "The Voyage to Mordor: Theme From The Lord Of The Rings".
After hearing Howard Shore's impressive scores to the latest Lord of the Rings films, I decided to give this one a shot thinking the same would result.

 Lord of the Rings - Animated - Anime
In 1978, Ralph Bakshi brought out an animated film, The Lord of the Rings, which covered books 1 and 2 of the famous trilogy by JRR Tolkein.
Still, the movie is a very interesting look at how many thought about Lord of the Rings for almost 25 years - up until the release of the live action film by Peter Jackson.
This was the first time that the classic trilogy had been attempted as a movie, but many were disappointed by the combination of questionable animation and "rotoscoping" that made up the movie.

 Review: Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
Later that year, Ralph Bakshi's ill-fated cinematic animated adaptation of the first half of The Lord of the Rings trilogy bombed at the box office, killing Bakshi's hopes of making a second film.
If The Two Towers and The Return of the King live up to the standard set by this film, The Lord of the Rings will become a milestone not only for its genre, but for motion pictures in general.
The strength of Jackson's vision as depicted in The Fellowship of the Ring gives movie-goers cause to hope that we may be in the midst of a cinematic achievement.

 Barnes & Noble.com - The Lord of the Rings -- Ralph Bakshi - DVD - Wide Screen / Dolby 5.1 / Mono / Stereo
Based on the first book-and-a-half of J.R.R. Tolkien's enduring, three-tome Lord of the Rings cycle, animator Ralph Bakshi's 1978 film is itself a time-tested classic.
Controversial animator Ralph Bakshi's literal adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic fantasy trilogy, The Lord of the Rings, is brought to the screen in a reverent, stilted way, with Bakshi forsaking his sharp-edged animated looniness for a rotoscoped dullness.
In no way your typical children's movie, it captures Tolkien's imagination in a much darker way than the Ring films produced by Rankin & Bass, The Hobbit and The Return of the King.

Ralph Bakshi followed his animated features The Lord of the Rings (1978) and American Pop (1981) with this epic animated fantasy full of swords and sorcery.
In a post-apocalyptic future, where an evil warlord has attempted to freeze to death all non-believers, a group of subhumans kidnap the Ice Lord's daughter, setting up a battle between good and evil.
Based on the work of legendary illustrator Frank Frazetta (who also co-produced the film), and considered one of Bakshi's best mainstream films, Fire and Ice is animation for grown-ups, full of exciting action, brawny heroes and buxom heroines.

A fellowship of nine sets out to destroy an evil ring of power and are set upon by the dark Lord of Mordor and his evil servants.
One of the best bits about this dvd movie is the absolutely superb voice acting, the hobbits are convincing, Gandalf is authoritative and Gollum is truely captured in essence, his split personality comes across powerfully.

 Three Rings for Hollywood
Before Peter Jackson’s recent blockbuster three-film series, released 2001-2003, there were a number of other efforts to develop a Hollywood movie based on The Lord of the Rings.
But in all three of the Marquette scripts, as well as in Jackson, the opening sequence includes establishing shots of Mordor and varying amounts of the history of the Rings before cutting to the Shire.
The Tolkien collection at Marquette University in Milwaukee holds materials relating to three of these attempts: the 1957 Zimmerman treatment, which Tolkien read and annotated, the 1970 draft by John Boorman, and three revisions of the Chris Conkling-Peter Beagle script for the 1978 Ralph Bakshi film.
