From Dark Horizons:

After New Line Cinema’s anime feature “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim” debuted to a disastrously low $4.5 million in its opening weekend in cinemas on December 13th, and then fell a steep 72% to just $1.25 million this past weekend, the title is being made available on digital at home on December 27th.

    I feel like if they had made the bold move to animate in a more stylized fashion it might have fared better. The fairly generic anime look implies a fairly generic storytelling, accurate or not.
