Bakshi's movie was already out, as well as the Hobbit cartoon from Rankin/Bass. Article I have fond memories of The Ring and I.
	Grognard Day: If an old-school D&D player sees his shadow, it means his group will spend six more weeks playing 5E. The primary lightsaber colors are red, green, and blue. The primary pigment saber colors are cyan, magenta, and yellow. RIP: Levius Heights, Oscar Schipps, Benvolio Bucket, Sojisk Ulmevi. I wish I could have played you longer.

I had a copy of the 1969 Havard Lampoon's book Bored of the Rings

I see it has been republished if you enjoy parody.

It seems there is even a fan made video spoof. These guys have too much time on their hands
