Good morning, Maq. Thanks for posting the review.

I don't see the pics, either.

I've seen people kid Hair, since HOTDog sort of matches her screen name.

I wonder if there will be lots of reviews about TT, as there were with FOTR. I'm looking forward to them, if so.

I have saved the pics, I'll see if I can upload them myself in a few minutes, while you are waiting, here's some clips:

"THE TWO TOWERS supasses all levels of expectation, and in the process it makes everything that THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING achieved look tame by comparison."

To describe Gollum - "It's the most impressive use of CGI characterisation ever seen."

To describe Helm's Deep - "Forty-five minutes of monumental action, staggering in every way, from the stunt work to the sheer scale and audacity of what's been attempted."

"Get ready to witness the War of the Ring, because nothing you've ever seen before compares to it. It might be worth ensuring that there are no unpleasant sticky substances on the cinema carpet by your feet, because that's where your jaw is going to be ending up when you get to the siege of Helm's Deep..."

"It's an all-out frontal assault on audiences, leaving them reeling with disbelief at what they're witnessing."

"...just rockets forward, firing on all cylinders with no shred of material you could accuse of being superflouous, let alone boring, on screen."

"Tolkien purists will moan in some quarters - vital bits are missing, sections have been left out for inclusion in the third film. Still, none of this really matters when it comes down to the fact that THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE TWO TOWERS is a certifiable epic."

5/5
