OH, my GOODNESS!!! The TWO TOWERS is FANTASTIC!!!!

Our whole family went to see it last night.......daughter 2 had seen it twice before, and the other kids once.......

I thought it was WAY better than the first one because of the incredible spiritual symbolism in it in the fight of good against evil......the battle between the good/evil nature of man in Gollum (Romans 7), the incredible Gandalf scene on the white horse and sword right out of Revelation, the fact that we must fight evil regardless of it's convenience ("There will be no Shire" if we ignore this).

AMAZING MOVIE!!! I LOVED it!!!

Yeah! I am so glad you liked it! I have seen it four times now....and am not done yet. It's a movie I will never tire of.

I just LOVE the part at the end where Gollum and Smeagol are arguing (all of the arguments they have are great, but that one is brilliant). Just love it.

Oh Yeah! We went to see on the day after it came out. We waited for the two older boys to get home from college so we could all see it together, however, Sir SuziQ, and both of the boys had seen it on the first day also. SSQ went with a group from work, and the boys went with friends at school on the first day.

I enjoyed it tremendously! There are big discussions in the Hobbit Hole about various characters and situations, whether or not they were enough like Tolkien wrote them, etc. Variations, notwithstanding, I thought it was a tremendous movie, and will probably go three or four more times with our daughter, who is the other Tolkien geek in the family!

Hi, OWF!

When I heard that line said to Pippin by Merry about if these things wer ignored there will be no Shire. It made me think of what is going on in the world now. I still am a friad of us going to war with Iraq and naybe with North Korea.

But those words made me think, If we don't do something about Saddam Hussein and his WMD's or N. Korea and it's Nukes. Then ther will soon be no USA.

I trust President Bush and Secretary Rumsfeld, and what ever they say is necessary to do, I stand with them.

May God keep them and us safe!
