I saw this when I was a kid and after seeing the NEW LOTR...found a renewed interest in The Hobbit. So re-rented it and immediately wished I hadn't. No, I haven't read the books yet, but I intend to. However, that doesn't excuse how gross this cartoon is. As a child it scared the (insert expletive here) outta me and today it still does. The only interesting character is our heroic wizard and sometimes I wished that he'd just zap Baggins right off the screen for good. The film really didn't delve into any depths the book, I believe, touches on...and I was left with questions...lots-o-them. So, I guess for real entertainment I should read the trilogy from Tolkien, ... .
