Chars: Animated Vs. Live ..er..real??

Yes, but with computers it is still animation. This had a filming element.

I liked the animated one...but i was surprised to know that for Frodo's character they used an ex-mouseketeer which they had to tape down her rather voluptuous breasts...

whoa, thatwas a seriously huge and over-due *bump* Feanor my man ✅

motion picture characters of course, except we get to see Tom Bambadil

ur on a bumping spree. be careful

why does this discussion keep popping up!?!?!

Hobbit is a great book, its especially good cause it is easy to read and is quite short and doesnt take up too much lady time 😖hifty:

not that you have any to take up

*sigh*

Discos - true ❌ weep

Queen-live-love of my life-

brian may: this is the bit where the guitarist gets to speak.... occasionally
freddie: no it isnt

*EHEM*

*agrees with AE*

Unfortunately I haven't seen the hob yet, but I didnt like the animated LoTR because it absolutely didn't get the atmosphere and style of the book
It had so little love for details

And worst of all
They pronounced everything so incorrectly 🙄
Like "sell-a-born" for Celeborn ['Keleborn]

Aruman!

God man, what's not good about the animated version (the 1978 one, right?), I mean, even Anthony Daniels was in it!

depending on one's taste you may not like the hobbit anymore than you did the animated lotr...

more than likely those that made the animated version did not communicate with the Tolkien estate or utilized technical consultants to ensure that movie was correctly done, e.g., pronunciation of names and the proper costuming of characters...

the atmosphere while dark and very seventyish with the effects, was good for its' time...and I'll admit, I do own the DVD and have watched it with PJ's version...

there are some similarities and differences...the scene of the nazguls entering the room where the hobbits supposedly slept in and then striking the beds are almost the same in PJ's...

Smeagol in both versions are almost exactly alike with slight differences in facial style and voice...

Elijah Woods and the animated character almost speak in similar accents...

the one draw back that I did not like in the animated version was how the orcs were portrayed...
