Advantages: Rejuvenates cartoon cinema, causing Disney to back off for a while. Disadvantages: Uneven plot, perhaps too many similarities to cartoon tradition.
...Don Bluth's first animated feature since leaving the sleazy corporate tyranny of Disney behind, remains one of the most accomplished and critically acclaimed in the history of cartoon cinema, and easily upstages all of his company's subsequent productions despite the greater box office success of 'An American Tail' and 'The Land Before Time.' It was produced by Bluth's dedicated, overworked team over the course of thirty gruelling months from 1979 to 1982 as a direct rival to Disney's continuing productions, which Bluth felt were cruising comfortably along on their laurels and lacked the excitement and magic of the company's distant golden era. 'The Secret of NIMH' was created specifically to return to older, more intricate styles of animation while conversely continuing to push the format to greater extremes and innovations...

Advantages: you dont have to wait 2 years to find out what happens next. Disadvantages: bad animation but still watchable.
...If you have already seen The Lord of The Rings-The Fellowship of The Ring at the cinemas then im afraid that you may be a bit disappointed with The Lord of The Rings animated version. None the less i can still recommend watching it (especially if you just cant wait for the next 2 years to find out what happens next.)
I still enjoyed it and i didnt watch it until after i had seen the film.
So heres a bit about the DVD version, and incase you havent seen the film theres a bit about the story-line just for you.
The Lord of The Rings animated version on DVD will take you into Middle-Earth, an enchantedland inhabitated by Hobbits, Heroes and wizards.The Hobbits live in the Shire, thats were we meet young Frodo who is caught up in an amazing adventure when a very dangerous and powerful ring is given to him by his Uncle Bilbo...

Advantages: Fun Fun Fun and Ever So Cute Disadvantages: I Don't Think There Are Any..
...the whole question again and obviously if you get it wrong 4 times, its repeated for times and the questions can take up to a minute to play out.
You will also get to see the behind the scene of making Peter Pan which is a really fascinating look back on how they did films in 1953. You can also get commentary from the actors as the film is playing and subtitles in English, for those who have hearing impairment in English as well, Greek and Arabic.
The description on the back of the box is as follows:
“bursting with pixie dust, adventure and song, Disney’s 14th animated classic brings the timeless story of PETER PAN to magical life and reawakens the child in all of us.
The high flying fun begins when the hero of Wendy, John and Michael’s bedtime stories – peter Pan invites them to enchanting never Land, where childhood lasts forever...
