LotR Show

LotR: The Two Towers was brilliant. Very good movie. I've read many comments stating that the movie was crap because it took too much liberty from the book. That is all they critizised. Well you can't really expect a movie to be a 1:1 adaption of the book. Movies work differently than books. Only because it's farther away from the books than the first part doesn't make it a bad movie. I won't go into any details as I don't want to spoil it for people who haven't seen the film yet.

To sum it up, I really liked the film, maybe even a tad better than the first one. There's quite a bit of comic relief which I truly enjoyed and didn't think of as overdone. Definitely one of the best movies I have seen this year.

The pictures in this post show two people from the audience dressed up as knights with cardboard armor and horses and duct tape swords. During the breaks they would fight each other. It was very funny, complete with "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"-like taunts. Thanks for the show guys!
