The Peter Jackson "Lord of the Rings" films are undeniably iconic, but they weren't the first cinematic adaptations of Tolkien's masterpiece. The earliest screen version was the 1977 animated "Hobbit," followed by the 1978 animated "Lord of the Rings."
Currently, you can snag a fantastic deal on the latter. Amazon is offering the remastered deluxe edition of the 1978 animated "Lord of the Rings" for only $5!
