I’ll be your friend…”Ĭhapter One – The Departure Of Boromir: Aragorn and Legolas have some mad freestyle dirge skills.Ĭhapter Two – The Riders Of Rohan: You know what would explain how the three guys can run non-stop for three days? A Rocky montage.Ĭhapter Three – The Uruk-Hai: Mordor and Isengard trade “Er we go, er, we go, er we go’s” for a while. Better hosts know when to make them.Ĭhapter Nine: The Great River – Rapids, wasteland, Orcs, Gollum, “Fell Beasts”…What’s so great about this damn river?Ĭhapter Ten: The Breaking Of The Fellowship – Boromir says: “Give me the Ring.

#LOTR TWO TOWERS CHAPTER SUMMARY SERIES#
Note: While I like to have fun with the chapter descriptions here, I feel honor bound to say that this series isn’t comedic, for the most part.Ĭhapter One: A Long-Expected Party – Where we find out that the Ring can turn people both invisible and into an asshole.Ĭhapter Two: The Shadow Of The Past – Gandalf explains the plot to the rea…I mean Frodo.Ĭhapter Three: Three Is Company – The most epic journey in English literature begins. If you want to check out my series on The Hobbit, click here.

Since the index page I threw up for my “Decisive Battles” pulls in a good bit of traffic, I figure I should do the same for my Chapter by Chapter reviews of The Lord of the Rings.
