The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (part 1)

Why did three dead blue jays end up in Joe’s pond, and what does it have to do with the fate of Middle-earth? We are diving headfirst into The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, but things get weird before we even leave the Shire. From Peter Jackson’s obsession with sweeping drone shots of New Zealand to the mystery of which towers actually make the title cut, the team has plenty to dissect. 

Hear Joe opine on Haldir's presence and subsequent death at Helm's Deep! Hear Jen realize that orcs just want to retire and live a peaceful life! Hear Tom scream like an angel getting its wings over the reveal of Gandalf the White! We are breaking down the master detective tracking skills of Aragorn and why Legolas finally has something to say in this fantasy adaptation. 

This movie review covers everything from the scream of the Nazgul to whether orcs prefer their meat rare or well-done. All that, plus the secret of bearded women!
