Like, it's not even close. The 1977 cartoon is crisp, has beautiful artwork, and more closely matches the spirit of the books. Jackson's Hobbit trilogy meanwhile is a bloated mess. I was so bored and uninterested I couldn't even finish the third movie.
The only thing I remember from the new movies is how bad the CGI on Legolas' horse was @ the Dale scene in the (2nd?) film and the shoehorned love story
I've had the Goblin Town song rattling around my skull for over 20 years.
Down down to Goblin Town! Down down to Goblin Town!
Goblins quaff, and Goblins beat
Goblins laugh, and Goblins bleat
Batter, jabber, whip, and taver hoooooo!
Below, my lad!
Ho, ho! my lad!
