The Two Towers

 

The second of the trilogy explains how the two towers join forces.  The two towers are the towers of Sauron and Saruman.  Saruman decides to grow and army of orcs.  They must find the ring and the ring bearers at all cost and they must return them alive.

 

Here are a few of the important characters who join in the two towers.  Worm Tounge, and the other two, who are borther and sister.  These characters don’t appear in the film until latter.

 

 

Aragon, the elf Legoles and the Dwarf go looking for Merry and Pippin, who are captured by the orcs who think that one of them is the ring bearer.  A battle latter ensues between the orcs and the humans from the kingdom of the horse lords.  In the middle of the battle, Merry and Pippin escape into a forest and bump into an Ent called Treebeard.  He thinks that they are orcs and takes them away to decide if they are, by

discussing the problem with the other Ents.

 

Aragon, Legolas and Gimli follow the trail to where they think Merry and Pippin have gone and they see a large army of horse riders who ride past them and then return.  They tell them of the search and the riders tell them that they haven’t seen anyone of their description; all the orcs have been killed and burnt in a pile.  The party go to where the pile of burning carcases are left, and Aragon finds a new trail that leads them into the forbidden forest.  In the forest they meet someone that they was not ever expecting to see again

 

In the first film, Gandalf fights the Balrog.  He knocks the bridge from underneath it and as it falls, it grabs Gandalfs foot with its whip and drags him down.  When they first see the man in a bright light, they assume that it’s Saruman but when they come closer, they

After being returned to the land of the living king Theoden remove Worm Tounge from his kingdom and scuttles back to Sarumans side.  The king learns of the death of his son and that he needs to move his people to Helms Deep to fight the orcs of Saruman.

 

 

learn of the truth;  Gandalf has returned and looks different.  They learn of his passage in time that occurred whilst they were apart.  He tells them that they have to go to the kingdom of the horse lords.  Gandalf calls his horse Shadowfax who is the greatest of the horse lords horses and off they go to the kingdom of the horses.

 

 

I leave the brief explanation here for the reason stated in all my reviews.  This in a way is similar to Star Wars part 5.  It’s the best part of the trilogy.  I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
