Tolkien AOL review for ROTK

Entertainment Weekly posted a thing on the internet about the top 10 most anticipated movies of the coming fall 2003. Of course, ROTK was at #1, and here is their review for it:<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR><B>WHY WE CAN'T WAIT</B> Hey, we were ready for this a year ago, the moment the house lights went up at the end of ''The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.'' ''Rings''-master Peter Jackson believes he has been saving the best for last, according to Elijah ''Frodo'' Wood.<P><B>SOURCE MATERIAL</B> The final volume of J.R.R. Tolkien's ''The Lord of the Rings'' trilogy<P><B>WHAT'S NEW</B> The relationship between hobbits Frodo and Sam (Sean Astin, above left with Wood) and the treacherous Gollum (Andy Serkis) becomes even more twisted. Plus, there's the giant she-spider Shelob, a fanged monster who threatens to make a snack out of Sam (actually taken from Tolkien's ''The Two Towers,'' but inserted into ''King'' by Jackson to up the drama).<P><B>BURNING QUESTION</B> Will Jackson finally grab his own brass ring, the Oscar that eluded the first two installments?<P><B>COME FOR</B> The Sam-Shelob showdown<P><B>STAY FOR</B> The Battle of the Pelennor Fields, for which the bloody fray in ''The Two Towers'' was only a warm-up<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>I think this adds to many other things that prove that this movie will be the best of the year. Don't you?
