That was the Ralph Bakshi one on last night. I don't like it at all, personally- way too much reliance on rotoscoping and sloppy animation shortcuts. For example, the hordes of orcs that were clearly the silhouettes of real guys with horns and teeth painted on. And that Balrog!
I like the Rankin-Bass Hobbit okay, even if some of the character designs are weird, but it's been over 20 years since I saw their Return of the King. Have to give that a look next week.
