Wizards came before Bakshi's LOTR, and it was merely coloured scenes
from the movie Zulu. Fire and Ice used a much more involved rotoscopy
technique. I was at a conference years ago and had a few minutes to
talk to Bakshi about the technique. He's really gone downhill over
the years. I think Cool World was about his last quarter decent film.
