The LORD OF THE RINGS Trilogy is epic and iconic filmmaking, some of the BEST fantasy content put on screen. The HOBBIT Trilogy...eh, not so much. Did we REALLY need a trio of 3 hour films to depict J.R.R. Tolkien's classic tale? In 1977, Rankin/Bass emphatically proved that NO, we did not! HENRY BERNSTEIN joins me down in the basement once again to sift through my childhood nightmare fuel and discuss the Rankin/Bass animated version of THE HOBBIT! Along the way, we discover that Henry is NOT EXACTLY a Tolkien Scholar, our opinions on the songs, who's the better Gandalf and why I'm STILL afraid of Gollum to this day! Join us, My Precious.....
