	Bakshi did not invent Rotoscoping (filming live-action and
    tracing it).  Disney used Rotoscoping to a reasonable degree
    in some of his films.  Bakshi (in my humble opinion) overdoes it
    and tends to be careless.  Lord of the Rings was his biggest
    travesty in this area.
	Bakshi's original works aren't bad (Wizards was excellent),
    but his LotR was offensively slipshod.  He didn't even bother
    to look in the back of the book to see how names should be pronounced.
