Chars: Animated Vs. Live ..er..real??
OK, who do you think represented the characters and thier personalities better.... The ones in the animated version or (so far) the 'live' version characters...
My opions...
I just saw the animated version tonight.... and those Wriaths scared me to death! Dang those glowing red eyes!! ((hates glowing eyes....unless they're soft green, gold, silver, or purple.....)) So I would have to say animated on those....
Hobbits- hmmm.... with the exception of Frodo, 'live' version.... There's something abotu pudgy lil Frodo that makes me smile...
umm... oh!
Galandriel: >.< I liked the animated version better.... The whole blowing up scene in the movie just didn't feel right...
For the rest I'd have to say live.... yeah....
One more note on the animated: FOr a PG movie, that thing was bloody enough! I mean, if I was a little kid, I woulnd't dare to sleep for a week! Oy!

The animated version had VERY good characterisation. Still a shame the second was never made.
John Hurt certainly had a better voice for Aragorn (and they had the decency to have him wielding Narsil!)
But we all know the live version is preferable now we have the technology to do it. I rather like the tributes to the animated version in FOTR- scenes done in exactly the same way, even altered from the book in that same way.
Christopher Lee is a better Saruman, though- no doubt there!

Well, they didn't end it where TTT ended because it was in two parts, yeah, not three? Would have left not much at all for the second part of they had done both of the first two books...

For me the problem is that having lived with the annamated version for years the charicters are enbbeded in my mental picture of how it should look and sean bean was NOT my picture of Borromir he is (should be arogorn).
the film is as it is and misses some good parts, but the cartoon does the same, only when all three films are released with all the addons and I can spend a day on my own with a bottle or two and hot snacks to hand will I be happy about the whole trilogy thing
roll on 2004

I thought the animated version was VERY good, Mah, and I am surprised at you.

OOOOOOO I step in in the opp. on animated version...
As far as holding story, it was iffy...Seen better, seen worse...
but i have to say this... as far as the actual ANIMATION element..... There were only a couple things I disagreed with... *sigh* And the old backgrounds!!
*yet another sigh* They just don't do 'cartoons' like they used too...they used to be works of art.... now... :-( ....ok, this is depressing to me now.... LoL

It wasn't literal animation, Lari. The battle scenes were actually a primitive version of modern-day blue screen techniques. The animations over overlaid on real people which is why it is so phenomenally accurate.
