Lord of the Rings? Really? Why?

>>Lord of the Rings? Really? Why?<<

Clear good vs clear evil!

[mware]

There is a line stated by Sam Wise in on of the films,"There are some things are worth fighting for."

All three films are full of profound wisdom if you listen closely.

[Kenny Bunkport]

Lord of the Rings: Acknowledgment of the existence of evil, and a willingness to fight against it; that there is honor in self-sacrifice; that there is something bigger in life than oneself; heroic courage; heroic leadership; suggestion of a God behind all things.

[JillValentine]

It promotes standing up to evil (the Bush/Rohan/Gondor way)instead of kissing up to it (the Wormtongue/Chirac/Kerry way).

Also, it promotes the concept of limited government by making the all-powerful One Ring an object of great evil. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Why? ???

Epic on the timeless struggle between light and dark, freedom of the individual vs collective mind-stapling "ISM's"; Good vs Evil. And more.
