American Pop was excellent.
I still watch the old VHS I bought when it came out.

"If you remember the first film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings, the 1978 animated version by Ralph Bakshi...youll recall the experience was a mixed bag." No, I don't recall it as a "mixed bag", but thanks for attempting to think for me. If anything, it is superior to the overly CGI-dependent modern version.

Saw Fritz the Cat.....never saw Bakshi’s ‘Rings’.
wanted to see Bakshi’s ‘Coon Skin’ and ‘Heavy Traffic’, but never did. At this point in time I am not interested in either.
would love to see a John Kricfalusi treatment of “Rings” that would be sick....

I saw the LOTR in the theaters as a child. It ended abruptly, in the middle of one of the great battle scenes. Then a message was displayed on screen to watch for the sequel, which never came. I had the feeling then and now that Bashki ran out of money and time, anyone could see the battle scenes were just live action with a bit of cartoon paint on them. But that ending, he didn’t even try to wrap up a storyline. And where is that promised sequel?

I couldn’t help being distracted by the wiggling hair on the Hobbits’ legs.

Thank you for the blast-from-the-past ping.

I dig Bakshi. Crazy stuff, very different at the time. Still pop in “Wizards” and “Fire & Ice” from time to time.

Fire and Ice is one of the greatest pieces of fantasy put to film, IMO.

Yeah, Fire and Ice had Frazetta heavily involved, it’s a really good one for sure. The giant lizard rampage scene is fantastic.

I loved Bakshi’s Mighty Mouse. I found his other work dreary and depressing.
