The Peter Jackson Lord of the Rings films are undeniably fantastic, but they weren't the first cinematic adaptations of Tolkien's work. The earliest on-screen version was the 1977 animated Hobbit, followed a year later by the animated Lord of the Rings.
Regardless of your prior viewing history, this 1978 classic is currently available at an incredibly low price. Amazon is offering the remastered deluxe edition of the 1978 animated Lord of the Rings for just $5.

This 1978 adaptation uniquely blends traditional cel animation with rotoscoped live-action footage. A memorable, unplanned moment features Aragorn tripping—a genuine on-set mishap that made it into the final animation. These charming imperfections add to the film's appeal.
The $5 price is a remarkable deal for a remastered DVD. Even if you don't plan to watch it immediately, it's a worthwhile collector's item to complement your other Lord of the Rings Blu-rays. For more similar savings, explore Amazon's larger Presidents' Day sale.
