7pmEST on Cartoon Network.

I never saw it before, but I know it's borderline godawful. After seeing the movies, this should be pretty funny. The Balrog's a guy with a lion head.

At least the animation looks decent at some parts. :/

Sam acts like he's got downs in that one. And Treebeard is never introduced and looks like a carrot, if I remember correctly.

Rongi · #4

the songs in those movies are so gay

pjalne · #5

There were songs? I must have pushed them so far back into my memory that they fell out through the back of my head.

What time is it in Norway, PJ?

23:52

Wait, you've got that clock that doesn't go to 24. I guess it's 11:52 PM. Or AM. At night, anyway. Oh shit, 11:53.

GET SOME SLEEP!

It's not a school night for me

You're not my real dad

Holy shit, this is hilarious. Sam IS retarded, and Aragorn looks like He-Man's evil and ugly twin. Legolas looks like he belongs on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.

I love all these valuable scenes of people sleeping. Talk about character development. I also love how half of the cartoon is animation, and the other half is washed-out film of real actors.

sports · #14

washed out film of acters scare me.

Where there's a whip :insertcheesywhipcrack: there's a way

Oh my god, you're right. I should probably watch it again someday.

James · #17

You might be thinking of The Hobbit cartoon, unless they cut the songs out of the televised version. :/

Rongi · #18

They made an equally horrific sequel with an even gayer song called "Frodo of the nine fingers" and the guy that sang it was a complete queen who just appeared out of no where at Bilbo's birthday party.

Oh shit you're right

But I could have SWORN they had songs in the Lord Of The Rings cartoon :/

pjalne · #20

There are two separate cartoons? I need to get my shit straight.

Mike P · #21

There are three seperate cartoons. There's "The Hobbit" by Rankin-Bass that was made for CBS, "Lord of the Rings" by Ralph Bakishi (spelled wrong) which was an actual movie, and "Return of the King", again by Rankin-Bass for CBS.

The two made by Rankin-Bass had the songs in them. Treebeard WAS introduced in "Lord of the Rings", but he was only in one scene.

James · #22

They're showing Return of the King on Cartoon Network this Sunday, too.

These movies are fucking hilariously awful. I might just have to get them on DVD.

Perndog · #23

The thing that bothered me the most about The Hobbit and Return of the King was that they made Elrond GREEN. What the hell?!

Well, that and the hippie music. *shudder*
