Oh. Well then, there you have it.

I take a far more sympathetic view to the project, particularly in consideration for Bakshi's difficulty in funding the project. Not great, but not as terrible as the Rankin-Bass debacle ("Frod-o-o-o-o-o of the nine fingers!" *retches*) And I have been in possession of twelve of the orginal theater marquee placards for the past 30 years or so. They are quite marvelous looking. Perhaps I'll take them out of their folio sleeves and have them framed some day.

The movie definitely has its flaws, but at least Bakshi was true to the book in one crucial respect: Arwen speaks not at all.
