Clicked on the link. Now I'm going to type as I watch. Hmmm...

The backgrounds are actually nicely drawn. I don't know much about animation, but they look good to me. Of course, it's weird that everything is painted red, but maybe that's just to show Mordor.

Yikes, cartoon Frodo has even bigger eyes than Elijah Wood! I didn't think that was possible!

Ah, there's bearded!Elrond. Although the beard doesn't disturb me as much as the thing swirling around his head. Is he supposed to be drunk or stoned? Or did he just hit his head on something?

American accents from Merry and Pippin. Somehow that just seems wrong.

Wow, the suspense, the tension. Will Bilbo ever stop rambling and cut his cake? I'm on the edge of my seat.

Frodo looks remarkably cheerful for someone who carried the Ring for so long. Though I can't remember how often his fits came on him after he returned home, so maybe this statement is irrelevant.

Sarron. Sirith Ungol. Sounds like somebody didn't read Tolkien's pronunciation guide at the end of "Return of the King".

Ah, great way to fill up space, movie: show footage from your previous film.

Gollum looks like a deranged Kermit the Frog.

I assume when Sam is trying to climb the mountain to find Frodo that he's supposed to be miserable, but to me he just looks bored.

The song. Dear God, THE SONG. I will never get that out of my head no matter how hard I try. I think if the Gondorian minstrel in the book had sung that song to the people of Gondor, they would have fallen asleep by the second verse.

I personally think the song should have been rapped, and I'm only half-kidding. At least it would have been funny and entertaining.

I'll get to Part 2 as soon as I have time.

You survived it Jules?!
I am currently taking donations, for Everton FC. I am afraid that our chairman has forgotten to cough up. So if you could hand me a penny and I will dance for you :P.

I am the monkey and you hold the box, so be nice with that. I don't want to dance like that!

Part 1, anyway. I don't know if I'll survive the rest of it.

Would you like some alcohol for the next part?

Yes, please. Booze, booze, we wants it, my precious!

On another note, the Nostalgia Critic's comparison of Bakshi and Jackson's films was interesting. I've heard really awful things about Bakshi's movie, but from the little I saw, nothing seemed all that bad except for some of the character designs and the portrayal of Sam.

I'm tempted to watch it, but I'm a little hesitant. On the other hand, I'd be hesitant about watching Jackson's films if I'd read all the reviews from people who hated them, so maybe I should just be brave and do it.

Here you go! Careful that stuff can make you infertile if you drink too much!

I admit that I'm afraid to watch this. I'm having enough horrors to deal with as it is with "Stuck in Middle earth", that I'm not sure if I could handle this. On a scale from 1 to 10, 10 being beyond Celebrian bad, how would you guys rate this?

With Drunken!bearded!Elrond it rates at pretty bad. . . AND SAM IS NOT A FREAKING SQUIRE!!! *gives Vodka to Jules*
If I promise not to kill you can I have a hug?

My favorite thing about eating gummy bears is that they don't fight back when bite their heads off

Teddies don't hug back, but sometimes they're all you have...

Joker: You know, there are three kinds of people in this world. The optomistic that find the glass half full, and the pessimistic that see it as half empty. Then there's the paranoid, and they just think someone's drinking out of their glass.

Corrigan: Huh, then which one are you?

Joker: I'm the one who knocks the glass over.
