While Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy reigns supreme for many, it wasn't the first cinematic foray into Middle-earth. That honor belongs to the 1977 animated Hobbit, followed a year later by the equally animated Lord of the Rings.
Regardless of your prior viewing history, this is a deal you won't want to miss. The remastered deluxe edition of the 1978 animated Lord of the Rings is currently available on Amazon for just $5!

This 1978 adaptation cleverly blends traditional cel animation with rotoscoped live-action footage. This unique approach even resulted in an unscripted moment—Aragorn tripping and falling—which was hilariously incorporated into the final animation. These charming imperfections add to the film's appeal.
At $5, this remastered DVD is a steal. Even if you're a seasoned collector with a complete Blu-ray set, this is a worthwhile addition. And if you're hunting for more President's Day deals, be sure to check out Amazon's larger sale.
