Haha, reminds me of that comic gem - the "DO NOT PASS" sign with Gandalf.

Didn't they have those two big statues making the universal "Stop [in the name of love]!" sign?

thank god. I'm not the only one who sings that in my head whenever the movie comes to that scene!

I always have to sing that under my breath when we reach Argonath too.
