Jo Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 Oh my god. like they could help it. i mean the book was written before the twin towers fell. so that means they would have to stay true to the book with the title. am i right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Truthful Liar Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 Well weren't the buildings in fact called "Twin Towers"? :-\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrion Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 "We believe that Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema's actions are in fact hate speech. The movie is intentionally being named The Two Towers in order to capitalize on the tragedy of September 11. " Oh yes,who would want to intentionally name the movie after the book that it was based on way before the 9-11 attacks? Oh no, they want to capitilize on the 9-11 attacks.... I want to remove any game or movie from having the words Civil,Tower,Twin,World,War,I,II, and Vietnam because,well, they remind us of those horrible times and they are capitilizing on that!!!!!

Breton Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 That is one of the most idiotic and foolish organisations I have ever seen! I mean, they are way too oversensetive, and they don't even bother to research a little on the subject, or they would have noticed that LOTR: The Two Towers was named 50 years ago! We should start a Two Towers Protest Organization Protest Organization (TTPOPO) Originally posted by Masterjo2588 i was lookin at the petition on petition online and i also found this one..these guys are a bit oversensitive, probably looking to get attention http://www.petitiononline.com/CSWT911/petition.html :thmbup1: Haha, thats great, nice with some people making fun of those stupid organizations.

Ratmjedi Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 Fuc**** hippies piss me off. I think these asswholes need to get a reality check and realize that what they are doing is just stupid and ignorant. Clearly from the Trailer you can realize that the movie has nothing to do with Sept. 11th. If anyone should be sued it should be the company that owned the Two Towers because they clearly stole the title from J.R.R. Tolkien. That's Copyright laws I think isn't it? As for the petition to change the title of Ep II that is just funny and ridicoulse. Let's change everything that has the words war or suggest anything about it like attack. We can't have the battle of the sex's anymore cause it suggest's war. Let's take away risk because that is just suggesting to someone to take over the country. They should put this all on John Stotzle's "Give me a break" segment on 20/20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jed Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 It's pretty stupid to even try to start a protest like that. Anyone who is upset by LOTR: TTT is mentally unstable, I'm sorry. People just want attention these days.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think these asswholes need to get a reality check and realize that what they are doing is just stupid and ignorant. Hippies??? Who said these people were hippies? Hippies are pacifists not censores and they were the ones buring the flag back in the 60s. Hippies are all about freedom of speech and they don't need a reality check. Don't whine at people for something they didn't do. I thought that petition was great until I read the comments. About half of those that signed took the thing literally and whether they agreed of disagreed they should be, as the writer of the petition said, "sterilized."

obi Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 You guys need to lighten up. These guys that are protesting is right. How could they make a movie called the two towers? How could JRR Tolkein write such an offensive book? I am signing the petition. Whoever supports the two towers movie should be shot. If you did not know, the above was sarcastic.

SettingShadow Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 They think "The Two Towers" was named that cause of 11´th september? No, but it would been kinda weird/stupid/mean/arrogant/iditotic etc, to name it anything else since the book was named that over 50 years ago, those people are just... *drums rolls* DUMB!!!!! Or maybe they should read the books and get some info before the make those acusations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediNyt Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 Fret not my fellow Jedi. Fools mean nothing to us. They have no effect on anything. They are nothing...we do not acknowledge their existance. Because they are pathetic single minded microscopic organisms to us...wait what were we talking about? I dunno. Its probably nothing important. Hey I saw TTT again yesterday. Great as usual. Gotta love the Ents. ...We have agreed that you are not Orcs...

If you did not know, the above was sarcastic. we guessed that since you have a Gandalf avatar and a quote of Gandalf in you sig!! But i thought it was ridiculous at first, but now its just funny, i mean they definately wont change Star Wars, and i VERY VERY seriously doubt that they will change the LOTR: TT title either.
