Long before Peter Jackson came along, there was a different sort of Lord or the Rings movie. It's animated and weird and skips lots of parts. And it has sins!
Next week: classic '80s sins & really old animation sins.
Remember, no movie is without sin. Which movie's sins should we count next?

My husband actually proposed to me with The One Ring. He had been planning to take me ring shopping, but when I became pregnant decided that money was better spent on impending baby needs. We both worked at a bookstore at the time, and as the LOTR films were just hitting theaters, we were awash with bookmarks that had The One Ring charms attached. He bought one, and that ring is what he proposed to me with. He passed away unexpectedly in 2018, and that One Ring is just as important to me as my actual wedding ring.

Given how much energy humans on Earth work with on a regular basis, I've wondered since I was a child how our powers would compare to those of Sauron or his ring. I wonder if lasers exist in the universe of LOTR? We can dump enormous, fantastical amounts of energy and power into highly focused beams when we have a reason to do so. Light doesn't seem to work the same ways as our light, so it's not a given. The light of their universe seems to have different properties than ours, so maybe it's not possible to create a coherent beam. Does radioactivity exist? If they had the skill, could they have refined a pile or uranium, lumped it together until there was enough of it to go supercritical, and then dumped a solar-output worth of power into the ring in an infinitesimally short instant? The ring couldn't be unmade with mortal fire because any conceivable fire that they could produce was but a speck compared to the power contained in Sauron's spirit, much of which had been dumped into the ring. I wonder how Sauron's spirit's energy levels would compare to a 2 or 3 hundred megaton explosion? He's not mortal... but his existence and power are finite. He does not contain the power necessary to reshape the world like his far more powerful former Valar bosses did. He's a minor being compared to them.

You missed sin when they’re walking through the cave after meeting Legolas: Legolas says to Aragorn “My Lord Elrond” which means the writers changed Legolas’s origin because he’s supposed to be a wood elf of the woodland realm but in this movie they made him a high elf.

As explained by Elrond, the purpose of the knife was to break off in the wound, leaving a shard in the victim's body. The remaining blade would soon turn to dust, and the shard works its way through the body to the heart. If the shard of the blade stays in the victim for too long, the victim becomes a wraith.”

You know what? That Orcs and stuff line should have been elaborated upon, as I'm sure Tolkien made like a book version of an extended cut of the Silmarillian or something else with lots of words in it, that explains in detail about how Sting would also glow when close to magnets. The whole thing was just fluff, and played no part at all in the story, but the guys who made this movie added that line in knowing that only true Tolkien heads would understand the reference. Pretty sure I didn't just make that up.

I watched The Hobbit and LOTR (animated) on movie days at school in the early 1980s. The teachers didn't explain anything to introduce them. I loved The Hobbit, but the rotoscoping of LOTR was pure nightmare fuel. The quick edits made it impossible to follow the plot. Eventually, I read the books and was still confused, because of the multiple names for characters and places. Thank goodness Peter Jackson gave me a visual aid, so I could understand the story once I read them again.

I'm not insecure about my initial struggles with Tolkien, it all worked out for me. I doubt I had enough life experience before I was 30 to really grasp the themes of it anyway. “You may learn something, and whether what you see be fair or evil, that may be profitable, and yet it may not. Seeing is both good and perilous.” If you're struggling with the Bible, I recommend the Bible Project KZfaq channel or the tektonics website. As far as War and Peace, I'd just give it a hard pass. It's basically a soap opera staged during the French invasion of Russia, with some philosophical rants interspaced throughout the book. It's historically significant as a new style of literature, but won't really change your life.
