Went to see FOTR again

Went to see FOTR again, this time with my family. I cried when Sam came along with Frodo again. It seemed a lot scarier this time, because instead of having Mr Lord Of The Rings Expert with me, who knew the story and was just wondering how they'd express it, I had a four-year-old (who should not have been there) in front of me and my mother next to me, screaming and clutching my arm in terror when hobbits popped out of the corn fields.

I was very impressed with the four-year-old. He held out for a long time. Before the movie started, I thought 'I'm not sure this is a good movie for such a young child'. And as the movie went on and there were scary demons and Orcs and whatever those Orc-goblin hybrids were called, I was sure of it. And I was scared enough for him. He did end up asking his dad to leave, but he held out through at least half of the movie. Brave little boy.
