I never was a fan of Rankin-Bass Hobbit or their Bakshi-finisher Return of the King. That song 'Frodo of the Nine Fingers' comes to mind...
As much as I shook my head in disbelief when I left the theatre when the Bakshi Lord of the Rings movie came out, it had its moments. I got the VHS of it and my younger kids enjoyed it and got into reading Lord of the Rings.
War of the Rohirrim has its moments too. I was even debating going to watch it at the theatre again before it's gone.
