The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers	comment	The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is a 2002 High Fantasy film based on the J. R. R. Tolkien novel of the same name. The second chapter of the Lord of the Rings film trilogy following The Fellowship of the Ring, it was directed by Peter Jackson and released in December 2002.After the Fellowship of the Ring broke apart, Frodo Baggins and Sam Gamgee continue their journey towards Mordor with the One Ring, and encounter the devious creature known as Gollum, who held onto the ring for hundreds of years and has been stalking them for a while. Pippin Took and Merry Brandybuck manage to escape their Uruk-hai captors and find allies in the Ents, living humanoid trees whose millennia-old forest has been devastated by the military needs of Isengard, Saruman's domain. Saruman is allied to the forces of Sauron, and he uses his dreaded armies of Orc hybrids called Uruk-hai to wage a war of annihilation against the human kingdom of Rohan.Meanwhile, Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas encounter a resurrected Gandalf, and the four of them set out to help the Rohan and its king ThÃ©oden against the incoming forces of Isengard after freeing ThÃ©oden from Saruman's mental grip. To stand a chance against the gigantic and implacable army of Saruman, the people of Rohan, Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas entrench themselves in the fortress of Helm's Deep, hoping for reinforcements that Gandalf has gone to seek.Followed by The Return of the King in 2003.

When Gollum obeys and is captured by Faramir's men, Gollum confuses the "come with me" offer for a betrayal and shortly begins plotting his revenge.

The DVD commentary states that Jackson didn't feel that Faramir's assertion that he'd have nothing to do with the Ring didn't gel with what a corruptive and seductive influence it's made out to be.

In order to make this believable, Gandalf held the staff in a way that wouldn't draw attention to it, by tucking it under his arm so that most of it would functionally stay hidden behind him.

The Ent running around and then dousing himself in the overflowing Isen is hilarious if you notice it. As the Ents break the dam overlooking Isengard, there is an Ent in the foreground holding a struggling orc in his hand. When the Ent sees the dam breaking in the background, he casually throws the orc in the path of the torrent and walks away. During the Battle of Helm's Deep, when Aragorn alerts the defenders that the Uruk-Hai are bringing up siege ladders, an Elvish archer gets hit in the face by the quiver of the man standing in front of him, his gauntlet coming off after it catches on one of the arrows.

The Three Hunters run behind a rock and miss, by a matter of inches, being trampled by a huge contingent of horses and riders that are coming over the hill. Why the particularly perceptive Legolas or Aragorn couldn't see or hear the riders coming from a mile off is left unexplained, but the scene is played purely for effect. In the books, the hunters did in fact spot the riders coming from a long way off and had plenty of time to prepare themselves.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_3b113b7	type	Character Development
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_3b113b7	comment	Character Development: Aragorn has an important one at Helm's Deep. In the films (if not the book) he is still coming to terms with his destiny. ThÃ©oden and Aragorn are walking and ThÃ©oden talks (loudly, so that others around can hear) about that the Hornburg has never been taken and that the enemy will break on his fortress like water on rock. Aragorn and Gimli disagree, and ThÃ©oden gets right in Aragorn's face. "What would you have me say?" he hisses. "Look at my men; their courage hangs by a thread!" The unspoken message: the King has to stand tall, no matter what the odds. Aragorn takes this to heart and a few moments later when it's Legolas that predicts that everyone will die Aragorn simply says that he'll die as one of them. And Aragorn acts like a king from that point on.

It was Rohan's most impregnable fortress and the distance to Isengard was shorter, meaning Saruman's army would do less damage on the way. The ents decided to march on Isengard without prompting from Merry and Pippin. Faramir had made up his mind not to take the ring before Frodo or Sam told him not to.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_603f1a80	type	Pragmatic Adaptation
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_603f1a80	comment	Pragmatic Adaptation: Peter Jackson himself invoked this in his explanation as to his complete rewrite of the meetings of Faramir and Frodo's group: in the books, he lets them go free after learning of their quest and agreeing with it; in the film, he keeps them captive in order to take The Ring. Jackson said specifically this was because after the first book, the Ring's power to corrupt became an Informed Ability until it surfaced again at the tail-end of Return; in order to remind the viewer that it was basically evil incarnate, and keep with the rules Tolkien himself set, he had to have Faramir be tempted by the Ring. The Osgiliath detour even gets a subtle nod in Sam's speech: He wanted to move Shelob to the third movie because anything was going to pale next to Helm's Deep, and that left Frodo and Sam completely out of (action-y) danger for the entire movie. There had to be a threat, and poor Faramir got drafted. When Tolkien commented on ideas for a film version by Forest J. Ackerman, he said they should probably skip the Hornburg entirely so that the Ents' attack on Isengard as well as the final battle would look that much more impressive. (We're all glad the filmmakers didn't take him up on that.) In the books, there's a lot of random elves who show up, do one incredibly plot-crucial thing, and are never seen again. Most of their jobs went to Arwen, so she'd have something to do to make the audience actually give a damn about her. Elrond got the rest. And then later completely turned on its head when Arwen was to be added to the Battle of the Hornburg before Peter Jackson decided it would be too much, which led to another elf getting a one-off: Haldir. Unfortunately, he dies in the films, while in the books his fate is undetermined. Related to the above, the timeline in the book's appendices list how fighting was breaking out all across Middle-Earth, with LothlÃ³rien fending off three assaults before launching its own attack on Sauron's fortress of Dol Guldur. This would be too much to include in a movie that was already more than three hours long. Bringing in a contingent of LÃ³rien Elves to assist with the Battle of Helm's Deep helps to show the audience that the Elves aren't just sitting pretty and are indeed doing their part in the War of the Ring. In the books, as Saruman's power wanes and Gandalf's grows, the white of Saruman's robes and hair fragments change so much that he becomes "Saruman of Many-Colours." The film-makers, realising how utterly ridiculous a rainbow-coloured wizard would look, represent this by having Saruman's robes get dirtier as he descends into evil.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_638b65bc	comment	Armor Is Useless: There are instances of mooks and redshirts dying from a single blow despite being encased in armour-armour specifically mentioned to be of exceptional quality, at that. Most notably, orc and goblins tend to wear particularly heavy-looking plate armour, yet often go down to a single swipe or arrow. Aragorn and Legolas also go without armour for a majority of the series, despite being some of the most capable fighters. Slightly justified where the elves (and Aragorn) are concerned: Legolas is heard to pass advice on the weaknesses of Uruk-hai armour to his fellow elves in Helm's Deep, so they can Attack Its Weak Point. When humans or orcs fire a volley, it tends to fell significantly fewer troops per arrow fired, though orcs get around this by sheer numbers. Also averted when ThÃ©oden is speared at Helm's Deep. While he had to withdraw from the battle for the time being, he was seen back in the fight later.

But during the actual battle, the Ents win easily and Saruman just watches angrily without using any magic. In the books he actually kills one of the Ents with a jet of fire, making this an inversion of the usual Adaptation Deviation tendency to add much more blatant magic use than was in the source material.

The forces at Helm's Deep are only a force of 300 men, most of whom are either too old or too young to be of any real use. But that's because the actual badass portion of the army is the 3,000 Rohirrim who were exiled earlier in the film, returning at the end to turn the tide of battle.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_8d0785d5	comment	Didn't Think This Through: During the siege of Helm's Deep, the Uruk-Hai use Saruman's newly-created explosives to blow up the wall in order to make a breach. However, they were caught off-guard by the blast almost as much as the defenders were. The Uruks near the grate are blown up along with the ones already on the wall and countless more are crushed beneath massive chunks of falling rubble that were blown sky-high by the blast. After the dust settles, instead of immediately storming through the breach, they stand there staring at it, clearly not realizing that Saruman's new weapons would be that powerful. Of course, it's probably likely that Saruman just didn't bother to inform them of its destructive power because he didn't care, given that We Have Reserves was in full effect for the Uruks.

Why the particularly perceptive Legolas or Aragorn couldn't see or hear the riders coming from a mile off is left unexplained, but the scene is played purely for effect. In the books, the hunters did in fact spot the riders coming from a long way off and had plenty of time to prepare themselves.

ThÃ©oden also delivers a monologue where he doubts whether the Rohirrim can win and wonders what will become of his kingdom. Frodo and Sam have many scenes that show The Power of Friendship.

There are scenes all throughout the Extended Edition that hint of something ominous going on with the trees of Fangorn Forest. Merry, Pippin, and the Three Hunters hear their angry groanings on different occasions, and the Hobbits nearly fall prey to one that tries crushing them to death. It's all a buildup to the finale of the Battle of Helm's Deep, where the trees kill the rest of the retreating Orcs, and definitively destroy Saruman's army down to the last soldier.

"Gollum's Theme," appears all the way through the film whenever Gollum is around, but most notably as a song in the end credits sung by Emiliana Torrini. Ã‰owyn's theme (the only theme other than Gollum's associated with one character), played usually whenever she's standing at the front of the Golden Hall. The March of the Ents/General Badassery about to Happen theme (can be heard here).

The look on his face is priceless. Frodo has a "What did I almost do?" moment. Under heavy influence from the Ring, Frodo doesn't notice that the Witch-King of Angmar is swooping in to grab him. Sam pulls him out of the way, simultaneously trying to get the Ring off. In response, Frodo pins him and threatens him with Sting. Sam manages to talk him down, but you can clearly see the horrified expression on his face as he drops the sword.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_a6b14ee1	comment	Hollywood Tactics: The Rohirrim defenders of Helm's Deep let the Uruk-hai neatly form up outside the fortress without shooting — until one bowman prematurely does, which (only then) provokes the Uruk-hai to charge. The Rohirrim cavalry charge at the conclusion of Helm's Deep — downhill, towards thousands of Uruk-hai armed with pikes and spears pointed right at them is a textbook example. In real life, this would have skewered the horses and their riders like shish-kebab. But the Uruk-hai, blinded by the sunlight (and perhaps Gandalf's magic) ridiculously start to raise their weapons when they could've just stuck their spears into the ground and pointed them straight forward at their attackers, and the Rohirrim cut them down. They have to buy time for the women and children to escape and rather than hold a well-defended position they choose to charge out and be instantly surrounded and overwhelmed. This series does an excellent job of analyzing the military tactics being utilized and described in both the book and the film. It's probably of very little surprise that the books are much more accurate to historical warfare than what is shown in the film. Warning: Very, very long, and goes into elaborate and fascinating detail.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: The long shot of Gandalf and the Balrog, still locked in combat, plummeting together down from the hole in the roof of an enormous underground cavern beneath Moria bears a strong resemblance to a shot in episode 24 of Neon Genesis Evangelion where Unit 01 and Unit 02, still locked in combat, plummet down through a hole in the roof into Terminal Dogma, an enormous underground cavern beneath NERV HQ. And to The Wizard of Oz and the Winkie Guards when Frodo, Sam, and Gollum get to the rocky cliff above the Black Gate and witness the Easterlings marching from stage left into the castle, unintelligible chant and all. During the battle at Helm's Deep, the Uruk-hai placing a bomb in the drainage tunnel is one to the Sergei Eisenstein film Ivan the Terrible, where Ivan uses a similar device to blow up one of his enemies' walls. The shot-angles are even similar. When Grima ignorantly brings a flame near Saruman's gunpowder bomb only to have the latter firmly but carefully move it away from the fuse, it very closely mirrors a virtually identical scene in Army of Darkness between the Wise Man & Ash respectively.

Thus Galadriel speaks to Elrond in Common rather than Sindarin; the Witch-King addresses his orc minions in Common rather than Black Speech; et cetera.note This last case is actually subverted: there are many dialects of Orcish, one for each tribe, with not that much in common with one another or with the Black Speech per se (which is only spoken by the Orcs in Barad-dÃ»r and the captains of Mordor).

It is included in the Extended Edition.

Both sets of heroes find their destination heavily guarded, with new armies arriving. Later in both stories, one of the characters (Dorothy, Frodo) is captured, and in order to move around in the enemy's territory, all the heroes must dress in enemy uniforms.

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_f33ff01c	type	Adaptational Context Change
The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers / int_f33ff01c	comment	Adaptational Context Change: Surprisingly, the title itself is subject to this. While in the movie, it is said to refer to Saruman's tower of Orthanc, and Sauron's tower of Barad-dÃ»r, in the book it refers to Orthanc, and Minas Morgul, the city Frodo, Sam, and Gollum pass on the way to Shelob's lair in The Return of the King, an event which took place in the book version of The Two Towers. In the book, the whole "fear no nightly noise" speech was said by Tom Bombadil in his house in the Old Forest on the borders of the Shire. When they decided to cut Bombadil from the film adaption they gave this line and some others to Treebeard in Fangorn forest. This changes the meaning of the line from "no matter what you hear tonight, it won't harm you" to something more like "sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite". Faramir's speech speculating about what a dead soldier's life is like was a bit of narration in the book going over Sam's thought.

The film-makers, realising how utterly ridiculous a rainbow-coloured wizard would look, represent this by having Saruman's robes get dirtier as he descends into evil.
