Aw man... Bakshi was EVERYTHING in the 70's! His Heavy Metal and The Hobbit were core elements at my coming-of-age.

When I think of The Hobbit, I think about what it sounded like when my Dad read it to us, as children, and Bakshi's animation. Those are still my touchstones for the visual version of Tolkein.

... which may be why I never finished Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy.
