For approximately 35 years, since I was dating my Tolkien-loving then-future-ex-husband, I have not been able to get into Lord of the Rings, in book or movie form, although I did see the '70s cartoon at the time and like The Hobbit as a book.  Peter Jackson directed.

Like in other versions of the story I've seen, the acting is pretty bad, although it seems like the 1933 and 1976 editions wasted less time on set-up.  (Carl hadn't even explained anything to Ann when I tuned out after fifteen minutes.)  Peter Jackson directed and co-wrote.
