Try three. The theme is good verses evil. It is very clear who is good and evil. Even if it is slightly prejudice. The orcs, wyrvens and black riders are all working to stop frodo and obtain the ring.

One minute they fight a giant human-eating willow, then they get lost in the fog, it seems that the battle is constant. The pattern is, a large amount of detail, which is slow and very explanatory, then a chunk of two or three different perils.

The greatest internal conflict so far is frodo's fear of failure, his worry that the quest won't complete and he'll fail Gandalf and middle earth. The greatest external conflict so far is the willow that tried to eat Merry and Pippin.
