Why didn't the Eagles simply carry Frodo and the One Ring into Mordor and drop the Ring in Mount Doom?
>>63881568
Because Tolkien wasn't redditor
>>63881568
even the eagles would have wanted the ring
they are more primal so they would have just tore Frodo into pieces and took the ring for themselves
>>63881804
Their're just dumb birds, how much trouble could they cause with the ring
>>63882848
Although not mentioned in the movies, the eagles were of the same spiritual order as Saruman, Sauron, and Gandalf.
>>63881568
because a Fantasy movie that is 5 minutes long isnt going to sell many tickets.
>>63882848
when everyone in the world was aligning themselves with good or evil they were staying neutral just like the ents
if they had the ring they would've been consumed within seconds and gave it to sauron
>>63882950
That makes ZERO sence...Radagast commanded animals, are you telling me instead they were actually his peers?
this is simple, there were nazgul interceptors
>>63881568
Sauron would have seen them from miles away. They would have got shot down, leaving the ring for some orcs to take away.
That's why Frodo and Sam had to sneak in.
Gandalf is a Master Troll who could have destroyed the Ring easily and without fuss.
but he likes to watch Hobbits, Elves, Men and Dwarves suffer so he made up this whole Quest thing and put them all through a ton of shit just for the keks, saving their dumb asses at just the right time so they could walk into his next trap.
he really was a total dick
>>63883331
Wtf are you talking about
>>63881568
Why didn't Sauron just fortify the fuck out of Mt.Doom? Better yet, just seal the entire thing off. Make it so it is literally impossible to get near it. There you go, done.

> Gandalf leaves Frodo and Sam to get to Bree with the Ring, doesnt tell them a damn thing or give them any advice. they are nearly killed.
> Gandalf turns up at Elronds *just in time* , convinces everyone to take a small party with the Ring, Gandalf leads them up the frozen mountain knowing its impossible to pass, they are all nearly killed.
> Gandalf takes them through the Mines of Moria, knowing full well whats in there. Gandalf pretends he doesnt know the way so he takes them the hard way through, they are all nearly killed.
> Gandalf then jumps down the Chasm with his friend the Balrog, leaves the fellowship to figure things out for a while. Gandalf cooks up some bullshit story about killing the Balrog later. no evidence of this is offered.
> Gandalf returns from "Death" (he actually went to buy a new white suit and get his beard trimmed). doesnt give a shit about Frodo and decides instead to go and fuck around with Saruman for a while (after trolling Treebeard and King Theoden to be his bitches in this little war.)
> Gandalf now goes on to Gondor to trollfuck the Men, gets them all dying for his little game while he just sits watching and chatting shit with Pippin. successfully drives the Steward of Gondor mad.
>Gandalf now convinces Aragorn to launch a suicidal attack on the Black Gate just as a diversion tactic (Gandalf is fully aware that his spy Gollum is putting Frodo though shit in Mordor and will destroy the Ring anyway.)
then finally, when all hope is lost .... Gandalf rides an Eagle to Mount Doom and helps out
>>63883153
Eagles are not only pet. They're a people of their own.
>>63884526
Are you retarded?
>>63884526
>Balrog wanted to show Gandalf his new mancave with his sweet new gaming rig
>they mess with orcs for fun and bro it up
>then gandalf has to go back into the cold to save his dumb mortal friends.
>>63881568
Who would win: High ground or Eagles?
>>63884653
Gandalf has one of the three Elven Rings. the Fire one .... did you see him use it, ever?
The eagles were ancient beings that werent really supposed to interfere in Middle Earth affairs
>>63883153
Radagast was a disciple of Yavanna, who was sort of like an earth mother, or mother nature. He was sent to preserve the natural world from sauron, while gandalf and saruman were there for the elves and men, and the blue wizards were to subvert sauron in his own lands.
The eagles answered directly to Manwe, who was the guy Eru left in charge of middle earth.
>>63884973
Eagles were the masters of the highground technique. Orcs couldn't fuck with them because they built their homes on the peaks of the tallest mountains.
>>63885132
EU isn't canon
>>63882950
That's not true. They were created by Manwe, the same way Yavanna created the Ents. Ents aren't maiar, neither are eagles. Maiar existed before Arda, eagles didn't.
>>63886389
>That's not true
NEITHER ARE YOUR FAIRY-STORIES, KID
>>63886453
Well, it is true that they were written.
>>63885011
>eagles fly into Mordor
>eye of Sauron immediately sees them
>an army of fellbeasts and archers intercepts them
>the ring is returned and orcs take over middle earth
>>63881568
Here's why.
Nobody wanna answer this >>63883595
>tfw everyone is new
>>63883595
He didn't think anyone would destroy the Ring, only use it against him.
> The eagles somehow against s
All odds sneak into mordor and drop the ring into mount doom
> It lands on the bridge, doesn't fall into the lava and isn't destroyed
