"Don't mess with the Hobbit, man, he'll CUT you!"

Well, the parents came up, and we went to see the extended The Two Towers in the theater today. It was a most excellent movie, even more so than the original theatrical-length version. The restored scenes add a lot more depth to certain characters, and restore events either mentioned in the book or in homage to incidents in the book from different places. Perhaps I'll write something longer about it later on, when I'm not so drowsy. Suffice it to say that I'm really glad to have had the chance to see both extended cuts theatrically. I'm only sad that I won't be able to do the "trilogy Tuesday" thing and see them all in one go...and that I'll have to wait until Sunday to see Return of the King. And that I have a full week of work starting tomorrow...oh well.
