There was a question on Quora that I was going to address in the 'One Adaptation to Rule Them All' thread. However, the question pertains to Frodo, who seems to be fairly underrepresented when it comes to analyzing the films' depictions of characters. There seem to be more complaints about...
In the scapegoat story there are 2 goats: one cast into the wilderness to perish, and one that stays in the temple.
The fates of Frodo and Gollum are inextricably bound, and so together they represent one scapegoat. Bilbo is the other goat, the one receives the favorable lot.
Like Leviticus...
A little pencil sketch of how I imagine Frodo
I guess It's his looks before leaving the Shire because he's quite chubby.
It's hard not to make him look too much like a child with his little proportions so I tried to give him eyebags and wrikles around his nose.
The following law school prompt was made by and for law students in preparation for their Contracts final.
Sauron v. Frodo
Frodo possessed a plain gold ring. One day, Gandalf told him to throw it into the fire. Retrieving it from the fire, Frodo noticed fiery markings appearing on the...
After their return to the Shire, they formed a band:
Released some albums:
Even made a few movies, I hear.
It wasn't too long before they broke up.
And, oh yeah:
Gandalf does say that having it with the intention of taking it to destroy it would result in the Ring's evil being very slow working. I know that the Ring was already affecting Frodo in Bag End, even without really, presumably, looking at it that much, and never using it at all, when Gandalf...
Did Frodo, of his own free will, agree to take the Ring to Mordor? Or, was he a piece on a chess board being moved by one of the Valar? Note Tolkien's wording: "...some other will was using his small voice."
The Council of Elrond:
Frodo glanced at all the faces, but they were not turned to...
I know they ditched the cooking gear and all and had lost their armor and had stolen orc armor (which I think they might have ditched as well to lighten the load.). But I could have sworn that in Frodo's confrontation with Gollum outside the Crack of Doom that he threatened Smeagol with his...
One thing I've noticed throughout Lord of the Rings is the fact that Frodo seems to act a bit like an Elf sometimes. This is more prominent in the movies, but I can definitely see it in the books as well.
He speaks some things in Elvish, things that he most likely wouldn't have learned earlier...
I see that Gandalf recommended that he go to Rivendale, but that seems out of the way if he wants to ultimately go to Mordor. The much quicker route, and, it would seem, as far as Gandalf knew, safer route, would have been to go toward Longbottom and the Gap of Rohan and ultimately cross the...
We know that the Ring would have gotten to Gandalf via his desire to do good, offering him the chance to enhance it.
It offered Sam the chance to be a super gardener.
It offered Galadriel power and presumably stuff to bring back things from the Elder Days.
It offered Boromir a chance to save...
I know it happend in the cartoon, i watched it on VHS ages ago, though when LOTR Fellowship of the Ring by Peter Jackson came out it blew me away
But i am curious, does this segment ever happen in the book? Its quite iconic to lot of people i think...
I get he fully didn't know WHAT they were but I think it's likely, even before meeting Strider, that he knew WHERE they were from. As such, he should have realized that these Black Riders were quite capable of killing any Hobbit, including innocent bystanders, that crossed their path...
what if frodo had asked the rest of the fellowship after gandalf's moria departure to split up and to allow him and sam to go on alone to mordor? where would the other remaining members have gone? Any ideas?
When Frodo Arrived In The Undying Lands If He Found Out About The Halls Of Mandos And Decided To Spend The Rest Of His Days Sitting Peacefully In Mandos Halls Would Manwe And Mandos Have Allowed Him? If yes Why? If Not Why?
