The 1978 animated Lord of the Rings is a cinematic treasure often overlooked in favor of Peter Jackson's acclaimed trilogy. Preceding Jackson's films, this animated adaptation, along with its 1977 Hobbit counterpart, marked the earliest on-screen interpretations of Tolkien's works.
Currently, Amazon offers an incredible deal: the remastered deluxe edition of the 1978 Lord of the Rings animated movie is available for just $5!
