aunt betty on lord of the rings: the two towers

If you need to go see a movie that you will have no understanding of, go to Lord of the Rings, the Two Towers.

Vivian and I went to see it this afternoon, as she had seen everything else I wanted to see, and she wanted to see something called How to Lose Your Lover in Ten Days, or something like that, so we thought since The Lord of the Rings was up for best picture, we should see it.

Well, think again.

Not only is it about Hobbits, that I have no idea about, not having read the books, but it is also Part II. We had no idea about anything or anyone, there was quite a bit of war stuff between some dog/otter things and another group, and some trees carried 2 Hobbits around with the tree and boys all talking. Amazing.

Now here's the funny part. I'll probably have to go the Part III to see how it all turns out.

Or you read the books. Then you could be obnoxious, like Brandt. :)
