Where there’s a Whip (There’s a way) is from the Return of the King, which was the unofficial kind of not sequel to Bakshi’s Lord of the Rings. Bakshi wasn’t really involved in it, much like the Hobbit before that, but Warner Brothers released all three movies as a trilogy.

There’s some differences in the techniques used. Lord of the Rings was basically filmed, then animated using rotoscoping. I’m unsure whether this was a clever idea or an insane one.

I'm actually imagining this to the tune of some of the background music for Command and Conquer. It works quite well.

I dunno... "We will fly and burn and slice" (the Toclafane, Doctor Who, new series, series 3, episode 12: The Sound of Drums, scene quite possibly only included in full version and not aired on your favorite TV channel) has always been my favorite morale-destroying thing to repeat in a creepy voice in (preparation for) battle.

...

That's right, I know enough of them to have a favorite. Anyone who's thinking about battling me better not let me have a megaphone.

"Hey, now, while I concede the "anthem" part, you gotta admit mine had theright flavor for "battle". Repeating "Crush, Kill, Destroy" again and againwill destabilize any enemy's morale. Especially if you accompany it with theLost In Space theme (written by John Williams, did you know that?) on abattery of bagpipes."
