Too many people criticize the Bakshi version

Yes the Saruman/Aruman thing is annoying, and yes the Balrog looks like a lion with wings, but I enjoyed it much more than the Rankin/Bass versions (which, I'm sorry, are terrible in my opinion). I liked the way they stayed close to the book, and two characters stood out for me in particular-Gollum (voiced by Peter Woodthorpe, who also did him in the BBC radio version) sounded appropriate(no offence meant, Mr. Serkis, you were great, but Woodthorpe's voice was almost perfect for Gollum in my opinion). Even more of a standout was John Hurt's voice work for Aragorn-just as I imagined the character, and the Aragorn that I hear inside my head whenever I read the book. It would have been very interesting to have seen what Bakshi would have done with Return of the King, particularly how he would have handled Shelob.
"These are Gundabad Wargs! They will outrun you!" "THESE are Rhosgobel Rabbits! I'd like to see them try...."
