EDIT: that’s actually from 1980 The Return of the King, by the same studio, and also pretty awesome and better than the live-action counterparts.
Another fun fact about those two movies: they were animated by a Japanese studio called Topcraft. Topcraft would later animate another movie called Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, and shortly after was renamed Studio Ghibli after a change in ownership.

That’s awesome, the Ghibli aesthetic has always reminded me of the old Hobbit but I had no idea they were from some of the same people!
