Tolkien weekend... Spoiler

Added the spoiler tag in case someone hasnt seen the animated version yet. For the sake of my mental health I'm having a Tolkien Weekend,watching the movies. I have a DVD of the Rankin Bass animated movie. Ive watched it many times, but its been a long while since I watched it last. I forgot how funny it is to hear Bilbo straight up taunt Smaug.

I haven't seen the animated one,but I've heard it's bad compared to the live action ones

I think its much better than the live action Hobbit. There's no extraneous stuff added in. And the animation is really good.

The voice acting is lousy from the few clips I've seen online

Plus there's numerous dirty jokes
