Lord of The Rings animated films - Blu-ray Forum

The Hobbit (1977)
Lord of The Rings (1978)
Return of The King (1980)

Seeing how the live action trilogy is making its way to 4K UHD, it would be nice to have the original animated films released on Blu-ray. Lord of The Rings (1978) was released on Blu-ray some time ago but the disc is long out of print and way overpriced.

Unfortunately I believe that if these films don't make it to Blu-ray to tie-in in with the live action 4K UHD releases, they are unlikely to ever be released on Blu-ray.

I have all three on DVD - ROTK is pretty forgettable, imo. You'd think even a 4K of the Bakshi version could be in the works.
