Since it was answering a negatively phrased question

it's probably all right (though could have been worded better) but thanks for the laugh Though when I first read it I skipped the "not" on accident and thought "Awww, poor unloved purse, I for one hope you are in the movie"
..The land of long-forgotten name: ......no man may ever anchor near; ..No steering star his hope may aim, ......for nether Night its marches drear, ..And waters wide no sail may tame, ......with shores encircled dark and sheer. ..O! Haven where my heart would be! ......the waves beat upon thy bar ..For ever echo endlessly, ......when longing leads thy thought afar

I'm hoping that they don't not include the talking purse /

The talking purse always reminded me of Jack and the Beanstalk

Don't be convinced there's nothing wrong with not refraining from never refusing to not use a double negative.

It wouldn't be inaccurate to assume that I couldn't exactly not say that your sentence did or didn't almost partially confuse me ... /

Are double negatives actually grammatically incorrect?

So a triple-negative makes it a postive? Makes sense I guess.

Well, 3 PJ Hobbit movies would be a triple negative

You don't have to carry a purse in your pocket. It could be a clutch purse! /

Agree, FOTR is one of the most perfect examples of how to use CGI
