Unqualified Observers #175: The Lord of the Rings (1978)

from Unqualified Observers · host Thomas Stimpson and Kelham Metcalf

In this week's episode of Unqualified Observers, Kelham and Thomas, sit down to discuss the original Lord of the Rings film from the 1970's. Does squeezing Fellowship and Two Towers into one film lessen the story, does the animation and rotoscoping hold up, does Gandalf hate Samwise more than the Dark Lord? These are just some of the important questions discussed in this fun conversation about Middle-Earth, the 70's, and how many belts a human is allowed to wear at once. Come join in the conversation and find out what we thought of this "classic?" film. As always, please rate, review, subscribe, and share this podcast to help it continue to grow and find new audiences.
