what may come next:-

1. Tolkiens original book will be renamed "The Bush of Greatness", so as to be innofensive.

2. Bin Liners will be renamed "Refuse sacks of evil"

3. Items will no longer be able to be bought in pairs.

4. Children will be arrested if they knock over the towers they make with their Lego on the grounds that this is a subversive crimial act.

5. Gandalf and saruman must cut off their beards as they are too similar to that of Bin Laden

6. The Quest in LOTR must also be changed as the pit of fire is obviously a reference to september 11th

7. A ring is also not allowed to be used, as in dim light, it could look like a pentagonal shape, which is also a banned cultural reference.

8. The entire story is actually a metaphor, and Tolkien must be dug up and put on trial as a traitor.

All I can say, is after reading a few of the things ppl wrote on their signatures... I hope he doesn't try to turn that in.  Most of those signatures are saying "You are an idiot, shut this petition down!" so... he is obviously having zero luck.

Although I truly think he needs to rethink that idea and that he is a ****ing jerk, I also think that that guy doesn't stand much of a chance, or a problem.  So stop worrying.  But he does need a brain transplant.

"It seems that Tolkien's son in responce to pressure groups from the USA, will indeed change the name of the second instalment of LOTR.  "The Two Towers", brings back emotions of horror, and Tolkien says that the US release will now be called "A Walk in the Trees".  This alternate title strategy has been successfully used before in last year's "Harry Potter" movie in which the Foriegn title was the "Philosopher's Stone" and the US title was the "Sorcerer's Stone".  US audiences were assumed to not read or see any material with the word philosophy in it, so the darker Sorcerer's title was used."

Daily Hall of Fame Top 8


"Why are you people getting irate about this petition? There are a few simple facts here: (1) The sequeal was only completed recently. Movie studios dont make movies unless they thing they're make money off them; (2) Mr. Jackson named the sequal "The Two Towers" to capitalize on the 9/11 tragedy. (3) All this ranting about some "JR Tolkein" has nothing to do with the movie--they are only similarly named. If you have something to say to me, say it directly. You know where to e-mail me: slashdotwidener@yahoo.com. Screaming cowards don't even use your real neams."
***
"I agree, i lost a family member in the WTC attacks and i dont want to cry again everytime that i see an ad for this movie becuase it is already all that i think about whenever i hear about it. You people think its funny to mock a serious issue like this, but you didnt loose a family member. If you were without your father for the rest of your life because of some towel heads thinking that he can turn the world into an anarchist regime where all will die. I for one gladley sign this petition and hope that others like me do also so that we can bring about change in this world!"
***
"Yes - rename it NOW. Similary, as I am plagued by acute hemorrhoids, I also find 'Lord of the RINGS' pretty offensive as well. That should be renamed retrospectively. 'Black Beauty' is racist, and let's not even think about how 'Gone With the Wind' can upset those plagued by their partner's overactive bottom."
***
"i agree this is a dumb petition, considering peter jackson had already finished filming all three LOTR movies before 9/11 even happened. The Two Towers may be coming out this year, but all 3 films were shot as a trilogy, over a 15 month period that ended in the summer of 2001. Some needs a ride on the clue train!"
***
"WE, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, SHOULD NOT TOLERATE THIS LEVEL OF INSENSITIVITY. SO WHAT IF IT WAS ABOOK FIRST, THIS TOLKIEN FELLOW SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE, I SAY WE PRESS CHARGES AGAINST HIM. LET'S KILL HIS FAMILY AND WRITE A BOOK ABOUT IT CALLED THE TOLKIEN MURDERS. "
***
"Everytime you masturbate... God destroys a tower. Please, think of the towers."
***
"Can you imagine what would have happened if the terrorists had decided to strike two months earlier? An entire convenience store chain would have been forced out of business, I reckon. "WAAAAHHH how could you possibly decide to name your store '7-11' after this horrific event? You cold, heartless, monsters!!! I don't care if you've been named that for decades, and I've been buying Slurpees there since I was a little kid, your name offends me!"
***
"que tal si lo dejais como esta putos capitalistas de mierda, haceis lo que os da la gana, condenais a los anarquistas por anarquistas, a los comunistas por comunistas, y a los musulmanes por musulmanes, pues oir esto: ĄDejad palestina libre!

Gotta love our combination of "free press/speech" and more banned books than you can shake a fist at...

USA USA USA

Wanna shut a book banner up?  Ask them if they've ever actually READ the book in question.

This petition is not improving my overall mood today. The "tasteless title" of the Two Towers? Honestly! What sort of rock has this pig been living under that he doesn't realize that the title has been around for over 40 years? And, amazingly talented though he was, Tokien was not a psychic. The very idea of "holding Tolkien responsible" mentioned by some people is sick and perverted. I do take joy in this, however:

"Update, 2002.0509: This petition has been suspended temporarily due to a lack of maintenance by the petition author. — PetitionOnline.com"

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAA! TAKE THAT, *****!

Honestly, if this person is looking for something sensitive, he needs to wake up and smell the coffee. We do not, unfortunately, live in a Utopian society. One will not be brought about by censorship.

If he wants sensitivity, he should go and rent "Bambii." Oh, wait, I forgot, the mother gets shot and killed. This is an insult to feminists around the world, and clearly shows that the entire Disney line, company, and their parks are sexist.

Please, you must forgive me for being American.  You see it's people like this who make us look bad.  Now I know what Anne Robinson meant when she called Americans stupid.  Man It's beyond stupid.  I have to go now and weep in shame over such idiocy.

"Further concessions to the US public following the change of the title "The Two Towers" to "A Walk in the Trees", will be a severe editing of the movie's battle scenes, where once there were Orcs attacking a tower now the brigands stage a sit in and a peaceful demonstration in order to get their point across.  Many question the radical changes but Omar bar Hummus, Dir. of The Arab and Other Dark Skinned Foriegner Anti-Defamation Council (aodsfadc) said,"The Orcs clearly represent a composite of all non-white peoples of the earth and we feel that the new chages in the story will promote an atmosphere of goodwill and peace."  Bubba Bedford, leader of the "Kill dem dirty forners" a Miss. State student thinktank, said, "Wazzant dat dere talkin picture, not even made in dis country?  Well #@$* dem anyway I aint seeing no film about no fairys."
The debate goes on."
