So I tried writing an article on the topic, but even after finishing it I am no smarter than I was. So why do you think Watcher went for Frodo? Was it because he was the closest tasty morsel, or because the Watcher was drawn in by the malignant energy of the One Ring?
I based Frodo on some depictions already made in fiction in movies or games. Exceptions when looking up final details online. Such as bright eyes and such.
But how do you imagine Frodo looking like?
In the book, the Moria chapters are probably my favorite in the entire book. Among other reasons, it's nice to see the whole Fellowship together in action and, as a consequence, it's sad to have to see them break up. This is also one sequence that didn't really need to be changed much at all...
I've always been puzzled by the end of the "Homeward Bound" chapter in ROTK:
"Well here we are, just the four of us that started out together," said Merry. "We have left all the rest behind, one after another. It seems almost like a dream that has slowly faded."
"Not to me," said Frodo. "To me...
Is Bilbo a particularly special hobbit because he was able to give up the ring freely, when even Frodo couldn’t? Or was this just a function of distance from the fires of Mount Doom?
when frodo arrived in the undying lands any ideas on the places he would have visited there? three examples are below
The Halls Of Mandos
The Mansions of Manwe And Varda
the city of tirion
any idea which of these he may have visited upon arriving in the undying lands? or did he go straight to...
How is it that frodo was able to sail to the undying lands? did he get special permission from the valar directly or did the elves have the authority to allow him to do it on behalf of the valar?
I remember reading years ago that Tolkien once described Frodo as a hobbit who was broken down by his experiences into "something else." I never could find a reference identifying what the "something else" was. Has anyone ever come across it?
So I re watched the movies now that there's plenty of time on my hands.
And I've noticed something that I couldn't find an explanation with a simple google search for.
Frodo Keeps falling into bodies of water, staying under the rain or simply gets soaked from head to toe over and over again...
I'm just curious what the Ring could have lured him with to make him cave when he was so close to destroying it. It wasn't like Boromir where he thought that most likely it would fall into Sauron's hands by taking it to Mordor and that all of the blood spilt by his fellows in Gondor would be...
Hello Fellow Tolkien Nerds,
Ages ago, along that irreplaceable first read:
We're at the Field of Cormallen, Frodo and Sam rescued and about to wake up surrounded by friends. In particular I'm greatly looking forward to Frodo meeting Gandalf, with a possible riff off the similar event back in...
Hello please i don't mind getting the electronic copy or tittle of the movie of the after life of Frodo,Legolas and Gendalf in the west and what became of them.kindly list the books or movies.i heard another movie apart from the hobbit journey and lord of the rings came out.
Hello. I’ve posted about this before, but every time I get in touch with such an ending, it hits me hard. I’m going to write some questions and thoughts, but I don’t expect them to be answered, it’s more for an emotional release, but if some of you want to answer, that would be great too.
Well...
After a year of dropping the ring of power in lavas of Modor, why did the wound from the mogul blade not heal?.was the medicine of the elves not enough to cure him, did he have to carry the wound for the rest of his life even in the west?
