The world seems to be full of people like that. I've run into several lately.

Oh, it did make me laugh That thing it says about the ring, suddenly becoming small enough to fit Frodo, and do we live in a world where rings magically change size. Well, in middle earth, the answer is YES. It says that the ring can exapand or it can suddenly become loose where it was one tight. You know ... it wants to be foundYeah and if they can't work that out then they should really get a brain then use it!! ;D

Okokok. EVERYBODY CHILL OUT. It's a joke. Not real. It isn't sexist, trying to make a point, or *gasp* even trying to bash lotr. A JOKE. HUMOR. LIGHTEN UP. I think it's one of the funniest pieces of lotr humor that's out there, and I'm as, if not more, obssessed with lotr as you guys. So take a deeeep breath. Annnd EXHALE... I originally found that script on lotrspoofs.com. Man, nobody seems to get the humor around here lol. Personally, I love sarcasm.

Okay..well no actually these people dont mean it as a joke. I read some of their forum, and they were so rude to any person who got up there and stood up for LotR. So it obviously isnt meant as a joke, and if you think that isnt bashing LotR..then i have no clue what you think IS. They ARE meaning to bash LotR, and they ARE meaning to be sexist, take a hint. The guy who wrote it is MALE. I'm almost certain that he doesnt have a PHD, and is not a doctor, but he is male.

The article and the forum are two toootally different things. Yeah, the forum people were rude. Duh. But the humor thing was obviously sarcastic. Oxford is a college...duh he wouldn't be named after a school. That's done on purpose to be funnyDo you really think he was serious? Experts on the occult? lol ;D It's supposed to be sexist...in sarcasm. As in a JOKE. Nobody is so blatantly sexist like that today. Oh please. Tell me you didn't believe this one...lol. lol, can you really take that on a serious note? Besides....the "sexist" thing is more of a conservative idea. This one is totally hippie. Duh, this guy is a male. Duh, he is not a doctor. Duh, he has no phd. Why in the world would a man with a phd be reviewing lotr?? And the matrix?? Do you guys think he has a phd in movie reviews? lol, these people on the forum were being jerks b/c they were annoyed and po-ed that some people can't take a joke. Yeah, they were really mean about it, but they're not deliberatly being lotr haters. Sorry if I've offended ne1...but um, chill pill people lol.

To me it sounded like the person was deliberately trying to sound ignorant and sexist, but at the same time was bashing LotR. Basically, making a joke out of the whole thing. Anyhow...Oxford can be a last name. I've seen it myself. There's no law that says it has to be reserved to a university.

Exactly. People you are reacting exactly how they want you to! They want to get a rise out of you. Why are you letting them? Just don't go to that site, if it offends you.
There are always sites like that, all you guys are doing by making such a big deal is fueling the fire. And increasing their counter points.
I don't understand why you can't simply ignore it. Who cares? As long as you like LOTR or whatever, why do you care what other people say? You are going to have to realize other people are entitled to their own opinions, even if you don't like them. So stop looking at that site, if you are offended. I personally could care less what they write because I know they are being this way to make people mad.
Why don't you be the better person, and not help, by giving out the site's URL, so more people can see it?

Well that would be censorship, a very nasty thing. If you guys don't like these hate sites, stop going to them. Everyone has free speech and is entitled to make a hate site.
So my advice is, stop looking at this site if it bothers you. Don't talk to the people there, if they are rude to you.
Why do you care about other people's opinions anyways? Realize instead that you have your own opinion, and that you can never change someone else's if they don't wish too.
To ban a site from the net, thats censorship, and thats not right.
