The PC falls out of LOTR3 like dead leaves off an Ent. At first, I could not figure out why the NAACP and Operation PUSJJIB (People United to Save Jesse Jackson’s Illegitimate Babies) have not protested the lack of black folks in the series (as they did to Lucas’ Star Wars). In fact Middle Earth has nary a bruthah; everyone who is not a monster is an Aryan. Then it dawned on me … all these wacky Whiteys are at war with each other.

Poor guy obviously hasn't read the book. In what JRR actually wrote, the climactic battle of the Pellenor Fields was between the Haradrim and Rohirrim. The Haradrim were southerners, who varied from middle-eastern looking to negroid. JRR even makes one crack, if I remember correctly, about the latter looking almost like goblins.

PJ chickened out on this one.

FWIW, I did find it creepy that almost every character in the film had blue eyes.

I got this one through email some weeks back--actually I loved the Harry Potter line.

But people started to behave so badly during the showings of the movie, it stopped being as funny...

FWIW, while watching the Rohirrim fight the mumakil, I kept thinking, "These guys could really use some caltrops!"
