The Lord of the Rings: 1978 Animated Movie (Remastered Deluxe Edition)

Was $14.97 Now $5.00 at Amazon (67% off!)

This version cleverly blends traditional cel animation with rotoscoped live-action footage. This unique approach even resulted in an unscripted moment – Aragorn's accidental tumble – which was incorporated into the animation! These charming imperfections add to the film's character.

At $5, this remastered DVD is a steal, perfect for collectors or anyone curious about this historical piece of Lord of the Rings history. Even if you don't plan to watch it immediately, it's a worthwhile addition to any Lord of the Rings collection. For more deals, check out Amazon's Presidents' Day sale.
