All joking about the "Two Towers" renaming petition aside, the following paragraph appeared in this morning's review of "The Two Towers" by Bruce Newman of the San Jose Mercury News (which last time I checked was a reputable newspaper):
"Even without the obvious connection to the twin towers brought down on September 11 -- a symbolic link which the picture does not seem to shy away from -- Tolkien's "Two Towers" is by any measure a darker story than last year's "The Fellowship of the Ring." [italics mine]
Oh, and the reviewer only gave it two and a half stars. Not that he has any credibility with me anymore....
