This movie killed my interest in "Lord of the Rings"
27 September 2001
I saw this movie on cable sometime in the early 1980's. It was awful - boring, confusing, pointless, plotless. The movie was a mishmash of characters without any real plot or direction. The animation was enough to give a seven year old a headache.

As a result, I never had any interest in reading "The Hobbitt" "The Lord of the Rings" or any thing else by Tollkein. Whenever a friend recommended "The Hobbitt" - all the I could think of was this movie that could not even entertain a child.

Perhaps if the live action version is halfway decent, then I may actually attempt to read the books.
