You made me remember these Tolkien films i saw when very young, never had an opportunity to watch again and completely forgotten. Going to rewatch now, you got me very curious, since also only now they are Rankin-Bass.

Yeah, Godzilla is pretty bad. I think it's fair to say, that watching one episode is enough to get to know almost everything about it. I just find it interesting to see different stages of their animation style through the years.
