Regarding the Latest Bakshi Critique
Vaelyn

I would like to bring attention to this frightening, indeed horrifying, write-up on Bakshi's attempt (I'll avoid using the word failure...) at capturing Tolkien on-screen. If one would kindly direct himself to the top (or near-top) of the new news on the front page of this site, there is a review of the Bakshi 'masterpiece' (Cynicism? Yes.) which is quite over-embellished. It's obvious the reviewer didn't do his homework. For better, and perhaps funnier, criticism, I'll direct you, dear reader, to the following: http://www.speakeasy.org/~ohh/bakshi.htm
