All 9 Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies and ranked worst to best

Middle-earth, a cherished fantasy realm, has captivated the hearts of many. Its grandeur has graced the silver screen numerous times through various adaptations of J.R.R. Tolkien’s timeless works, including The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. While Peter Jackson’s films are widely recognized, they are not the sole renditions available.

Recently, Amazon introduced a fresh television series called The Rings of Power, set in the Lord of the Rings universe. Additionally, several new movies are currently in production. Two decades have passed since the release of Jackson’s The Fellowship of the Ring, and nearly a century since Tolkien published The Hobbit, yet the fervor for all things Middle-earth remains as strong as ever.

As we anticipate the arrival of forthcoming content, let us cast our gaze upon the collective body of work encompassing the Lord of the Rings movies. How do these films fare when compared and ranked amongst each other? Does a singular masterpiece emerge victoriously, or are they all closely contested? Moreover, where do the often overlooked additions to J.R.R. Tolkien’s cinematic legacy find their place within this ranking? Herein lies my endeavor to address these inquiries by organizing all the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit films from least to greatest, based on my personal perspective.

The Lord of the Rings (1978) Directed by Ralph Bakshi and released in 1978, this is the inaugural entry among the often-overlooked Tolkien films. Unfortunately, in my opinion, this animated rendition is frequently forgotten for valid reasons.

The movie encompasses a rough retelling of the events depicted in The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers. On a positive note, the animation style exudes a captivating and endearing quality. Given our familiarity with Jackson’s live-action adaptations, it is refreshing to witness a beloved narrative through a new visual lens.

However, beyond its aesthetic appeal, this film falls short. It omits significant portions of the cherished storyline we hold dear, and its lack of a proper conclusion renders it inherently dissatisfying. While the storytelling may possess moments of engagement, the movie inevitably meets an insurmountable obstacle at its conclusion.
