After the release of these (for the most part) wonderful films, it has seemed like a dream come true to very nearly all Tolkien fans out there. But now a fear enters my mind. Today, I walked past some aquantainces of mine making fun of the Weathertop scene in an almost <I>lets-make-fun-of-that-nerdy-film</I> way. This frightened me greatly. What if a new subgroup of people is labled off in the same way as "trekkies", only as "ring freaks". Terrrifying indeed. I'm sure I'm overreacting, but I'd like some response from the rest of the crowd, just to see.<P>Beginning to fear the world outside my bounds,<BR>Iarwain
