I just talked to my friend Sheila and I could not believe what my ears were hearing! Apparantly, New Line Cinema has never heard of a little thing I like to call tact, since they are promoting a new movie called The Two Towers - an obvious reference to the World Trade Center's "Twin Towers" which were destroyed in the terrorist attacks last September.

Due to sensitivity issues, the WTC buildings will be digitally erased from this picture

My friend told me that there was a book that J.K. Rowlings wrote that is the basis for the movie. I thought that her Harry Potter books were so wonderful that I couldn't believe that she would take advantage of such an ammoral tragedy such as the WTC bombings as inspiration for a literary work!

Then I was informed that the movie was a sequel to last years film "The Fellowship of the Ring", which I enjoyed - despite the homosexual wizard. It's the new millenium, so I guess I have to change with the times, and if sorcerors are deciding to live deviant lifestyles, I'll have to get used to it.

The previews that I have seen for these movies really make my case for me. There is an army of dirty monsters leading an assault on a tall building, obviously depicting the arab terrorists attacking one of our tallest buildings. Even the scene of a Vulcan shooting arrows to keep the monsters at bay seems to be a suggestion by the filmmakers that we install Surface To Air missiles on tall buildings in case any more planes are hijacked, which I think is absurd. We should just ban all arab-looking people from airplanes, problem solved!

So when your son or daughter wants to go see the movie The Two Towers, tell them that you're being a good parent by not letting them go. Sometimes you have to do things as a parent that aren't popular with your kids. This is one of those times. Stand tall America, for if we go patronize this movie - the terrorists have won.
