  • It has been ages since I watched that. I don’t think I appreciated it as much when I was younger since I was more familiar with The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings Rankin Bass cartoons. But, this just looks so unique and interesting that I should really re-watch it as an adult to see what it’s like. The great thing about Tolkien’s work is the wide variety of artistic interpretations. I love them all.

    Thanks for posting!




  • Thanks! It was a fun project. Some day I hope to go back to it and add more detail. Maybe change the timing on the early parts so that there isn’t as much dead time while Boromir is the only one travelling. I’m always working on something, so it may be a while. I never did get around to adding The Fox, which was always kind of a joke, but I felt it needed to be in there. I also just realized I never put Goldberry in there either, which is a shame. There’s always more to do.

    I was listening to the Fellowship of the Ring again and realized that in Lorien they mention that orcs travelled up to Moria days earlier, so the orcs weren’t just already in Moria, they travelled there, which means I should add them to the video.

    The author of the atlas seems to have a background in map making because she also made a map book for Forgotten Realms that I have. I was organizing things and was thinking about what books to get rid of when I recognized the author’s name and decided to keep it for that reason.
