I think this point needs further research. I watched the beginning of the cartoon on TCN recently, and I noticed this too. It seemed that a lot of shot sequences from the cartoon were stolen/used by Jackson in the movie. It would be interesting to find out Jackson's thoughts on the cartoon, because it is too big of a coincidence for him not to have seen the cartoon.
And the person that said "The Battle of the Hornburg was apparently made by Sam Peckinpah" is right on!
