The Lord of the Rings (1978) with Alex Campo
<p>Who's that silhouette I see through a piece of cheesecloth backlit red? It's BFI regular Alex Campo, here for a discussion of Ralph Bakshi's 1978 film The Lord of the Rings!</p> <p>This week we dive deep on the first ever theatrical feature adaptation of Tolkien's work to discover if there's anything worthwhile in it. A strange, compromised adaptation of Fellowship of the Ring and about a third of Two Towers, LOTR '78 is a strange piece of the puzzle that is the franchise. At what point do the live action elements stop being artistic choices and turn into cost-cutting measures? Why was a political filmmaker famous for X-rated cartoons chosen to direct this project? How much continuity does this movie have with the two Rankin Bass specials that bookend it?</p> <p>Join Devin, KeriAnn and Alex as we go long on Bakshi's career and the strange development of this movie and its cancelled sequel!</p> <p> </p>

The Hobbit (1977)
<p>At long last, we're starting our Lord of the Rings series. This week, Devin and KeriAnn kick things off with a movie that everyone definitely remembers: Rankin Bass' 1977 adaptation of The Hobbit!</p> <p> </p> <p>A TV movie created under dubious legal circumstance, The Hobbit is nonetheless the first released film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's world. How is it? Honestly, it has its moments! Listen in as we make our first deep dive into a Lord of the Rings movie by arguing if any of this movie's many, many songs are good, radical changes to the depiction of Gollum, and what the ideal runtime for an adaptation of The Hobbit is. (Hint, it's not 77 minutes, but it's definitely a lot shorter than the 474 it took for the live action trilogy!)</p> <p> </p> <p>Subscribe, rate five stars, and leave us a review!
