KingNor Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Ok, i was just talking to a friend of mine. She says that her boyfriend and her rented a Hobbit movie that was full of really bad gay looking things, including: "ok, some bad thing got on the hobbits's ass, he said, get it off, the old hobbit spanked him" (sorry i couldn't get her to be more clear than that) she said it had several hobbits that went off with taller hobbits. i'm not sure i think this means like.. bilbo going off with the dwarves. she's one of those people that if the conversation gets difficult she finds something else to do.. but now i'm totally perplexed... i've seen rankin bass's Return of the King. and if you watch it.. its got some really bad moments that could look pretty homosexual, i'm THINKING thats what she saw but then she said there was a dragon for sure. she sent me this pic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingNor Posted July 12, 2004 Author Share Posted July 12, 2004 i then showed her the following image, and she said thats not what he looked like... i'm kinda thinking shes just being homophobic and obtuse, but who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry the lone wolf Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 I heard that Ralph Bakshi directed a psychedelic Hobbit movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry the lone wolf Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Listen, I don't know if this helps but I found a website about Ralph Bakshi's Lord of the Rings movie. It has clips and a synopsis about it. Check it out: lotr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewilen Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Bakshi directed a Lord of the Rings movie, but it only covered part of the original trilogy. I've always assumed the Return of the King cartoon probably picks up where that left off. The picture that Kingnor's friend sent looks like an aged version of the Bilbo from the Hobbit cartoon (which I hated), so it would make sense that it comes from the RotK cartoon. Here is more info on the RB RotK: http://pw1.netcom.com/~zmoq/pages/ROTK_RB.htm Looks like I was somewhat mistaken about the degree to which the Bakshi and RB cartoons dovetail. From other pages (searched Google on Rankin Bass and on Rankin Bass Hobbit) it's clear those are the only Tolkien stores that RB did.

ewilen Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Okay, correction to the above. The "aged Bilbo" is not from RotK--it's from The Hobbit. You can tell, first of all, by the © date; secondly, I found this page, which shows that it was included in the package from the Hobbit soundtrack.
