Has any one seen it? It's a 70s cartoon rendering of the book--and I think it's really cute. In fact it overpowers the LOTR cartoon (<---which REALLY sucks) made before the days of the movies.
:hums one of Gollum's riddles in the book: It cannot be seen, cannot be felt, cannot be heard, cannot be smelt. It lies behind stars and under hills and empty holes it fills. It comes first and follows after, ends life; kills laughter. The answer is dark...The Dark...

I've seen it twice when I was younger. It freaked me out at first, but then my brother discovered that the movie was based upon a book and so he started reading it. Of course I had to read it too (sibling rivalry you know) and that is how I got introduced to the wonderful world of Tolkien!

lol--poor you--I think the way they did the animation is funny. The only rendering I hated was the Wood Elves--they look more like green Santa Claus Elves--yuck!

Ah yes, the elves. The nasty awful elves with the greenish glow and was it white hair??? Oh well...ugly anyway.

You think that`s ugly ? Now what am I to say about the nice illustrations in my Hobbit book ? The Elves look like naked , winged fairies ! The horror !

Whichever illustrator, nay, publisher that copy of The Hobbit had ought to be shot! Poor Tolkien must have turned in his grave when that went to the printers. My copy has that cool pictre of Smaug sitting atop his pile of gold on it I LOVE DRAGONS!
