We all love the Peter Jackson LordoftheRings trilogy, but have you ever seen Ralph Bakshi's animated classic?

Having changed fantasy forever while simultaneously inspiring countless other fantastical worlds and fairy stories, J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings is one of the greatest literary works of our time. Originally published between July 1954 and October 1955, this high-fantasy epic is the "gold standard" for the genre and expertly expanded on the world of Middle-Earth that readers were first introduced to in The Hobbit.

The Lord of the Rings is a strange adventure because in one breath it can introduce a new interpretation of Aragorn , one who looks completely different from the Viggo Mortensen version we're used to but in the best of ways, while at the same time it can ignore the personalities and character development of both Legolas and Gimli , who have very little to do here other than engage in combat.

Sometimes it looks superb and works well within the film's context , while other times it's paired with ugly colored overlays, which make it feel a bit primitive and off-putting. Nevertheless, it's an impressive feat for a film released in 1978, and maybe even more so now in an age where so much animation is done digitally rather than by hand.
