Product: The Hobbit [VHS] (1977)
Rating: 5.0
NO TRUE FAN DISLIKES THIS ADAPTION
WHILE NOT PERFECT, I.E. A FEW CHAPTERS AND CHARACTERS(BEORN FOR EXAMPLE HAS BEEN COMPLETELY REMOVED) HAVE BEEN EDITED OUT. THIS ADAPTION HAS A CHARM THAT CAPTURES TOLKIENS CLASSIC FIRST BOOK IN THE SERIES OF HOBBITS. THE VOICE ACTING IS EXCELLENT. THE ANIMATION IS DISTINCTIVE(IF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE THUNDERCATS YOU WILL RECOGNIZE THE STYLE ALTHOUGH IT IS FULLER IN THE HOBBIT) SOME OF THE SONGS ARE EVEN LIFTED FROM POEMS IN THE BOOK. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
