The Hobbit (1977)
Manage episode 520983069 series 2868039
Listen up, Hobbitses! An adventure is knocking at your door! Will you answer it? Even if it’s a musical?
It’s the first actual Tolkien adaptation of our series this week, and we are so confused that it exists. Rankin and Bass? The dudes who make the Rudolph and Frosty movies? Yes. And for some reason, Otto Preminger is in it.
Next week it’s Ralph Bakshi’s THE LORD OF THE RINGS animated spectacular! Join the conversation on our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx and get more Eye of the Duck on our Patreon show, After Hours https://www.patreon.com/EyeoftheDuckPod
