We believe that Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema's actions are in fact hate speech. The movie is intentionally being named The Two Towers in order to capitalize on the tragedy of September 11.

Maybe not, but you can put a limit on how much you're willing to cater to and proclaim "suck it up, baby" - that limit was surpassed the minute someone even thought about this concept.

The name of this movie will undoubtedly cause a return of the emotions felt on Sept 11th which left so many people in the nation feeling stunned and in a state of shock.
Oh yes; I was devastated. Cried all the way through the movie.

[Or was that because of Jackson's gruesome plot mutations? Yes, yes - that was it, sorry.]
