Negative Space: Lord of the Rings
- The battle for Helm’s Deep has begun
- I’m obviously not the first person to note the connections between World War II and The Lord of the Rings. But this was striking.
- Churchill’s good earth
- Churchill also uses the phrase “good earth”, matching Aragorn’s use of it in The Return of the King.
- The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings
- The best fantasy books I have ever read. “In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit...” I found the animated movie to be marvelous as well. And the new movies by Peter Jackson are awesome! Great, great stuff.

The best fantasy books I have ever read. “In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit…” I found the animated movie to be marvelous as well. And the new movies by Peter Jackson are awesome! Great, great stuff. A story about temptation, on many levels. Both the powerful and the small, the wise and the foolish, countries, groups, and individuals, are subjected to temptation. How all of these entities deal with temptation is the real story of “The Lord of the Rings”.
