Ralph Bakshi's LOTR orcs...

So we were watching this today with my son and his friend Andrew. If you have seen the old Ralph Bakshi's 78 movie version of part one and two of the Lord of the Rings; you know that the orcs talk in a rough, garbled like voice, nothing pretty, as it should be. But in the end of the Rotoscoped film (which I like) you have them all singing as they march towards battle (see video clip).

Andrew comments from the couch:

"One thing...orcs are good singers."

Silence...I bust up laughing.

Priceless.

They are good singers. Their horn section could use a little work.

I'm gonna have to see that movie one of these days.
