To Beechbone: I Wouldn't Worry
Razors

I've seen comments about that stupid petition popping up all over the web. Some think it's group insanity, some think it's a joke. Personally, I think it might be a bit of both. Whatever the truth, I don't think it'll have any effect on the release of TTT.

I'm sure some people in Hollywood (and maybe even in New Line Cinema) have idly considered that "maybe they should change that title so's they don't upset anybody". Stupid really, but Hollywood execs are nervous and impulsive creatures.

But I don't think they'll be influenced by 1200 idiots who've already proven they know nothing about the books or the movies. Note the comment: "Peter Jackson has DECIDED to tastelessly name the sequel The Two Towers..."

Wow, that must have been a really tough decision for PJ, right? And if that's not bad enough, what about: "When I learned that there APPARENTLY was to be a SEQUEL..."

Well, DUH!!!!!
