why did they not just keep moving the ring everytime the wraiths got closer to finding it
or better yet just position people at certain points all the way to mount doom and just tag people with the ring untill the last person at the end throws it into the volcano?
>>68738934
Why did Frodo kill himself?
>>68738934
What other movies could be solved with the help of Giant Eagles?
>>68739178
1. Because they're not trying to ensure Sauron never finds the ring, but that they destroy it before he destroys them
2. Because that would take a shit ton of people and who's not to say one of them would decide to take the ring for themselves?

well consider this...
only choose the most wise individuals to safe gaurd the ring to each check point until it reached mount doom
instead of giving it to a random hobbit and just hope he gets lucky
>>68740803
They didn't give it to Frodo, he received it from Bilbo and 15 years later Gandalf realized it was the One Ring, and that all this time Frodo hadn't been corrupted by it.
Then Frodo volunteered in the Council of Elrond and everyone agreed.
>>68740803
Doesn't matter how wise you are, anyone can fall to the ring. The reason they chose a hobbit to take it was because they don't really lust for power. And back to point one they didn't have time to sit and think and wait for these people to show up they had to move quickly if they don't want to get decimated by Sauron.
>>68740868
but before it was given to frodo
bilbo had the ring and it was corrupting him slowly
and frodo had no idea the ring even existed so that would have to mean it only corrupts whoever wears it right?
so my point being only choose whoever would be able to avoid the temptation for the greater good

>position people at certain points all the way to mount doom and just tag people with the ring untill the last person at the end throws it in
Why not make a chain of people standing arm-to-arm all the way to Mt. Doom and just pass the ring from one person to the next?
>>68740803
Everyone is corruptible. Everyone. It happened to Boromir, and it happened to Frodo by the very end.
>>68741110
because they would be to exposed visually and the enemy would probably notice a fucking line of people going all the way to mount doom like a fucking dmv line
>>68738934
That's not the real ring of power. It's a ruse. The actual ring of power has always been fitted nestly around Sauron's cock.

The other guy's checkpoint idea fails for similar reasons.
>lemme just station a guy on Mount Doom, ready for the final handoff in this cross-county relay race
>how hard can it be
Gandalf > Legolas > Boromir > Aragorn = Gimli > Sam > Merry > Pippin > Frodo
>>68740803
Isildur was probably considered wise..
>>68741078
Yeah, so Frodo
>>68741411
well yeah but
if it corrupts all after long enough exposure to it
then giving it from one to another would lessen the time each person had to be exposed to its power right?
>>68738934
Why didn't Jimi Hendrix just give everyone a guitar?
>>68741408
Absolutely fucking wrong
Sam > Gandalf > Boromir = Aragorn > Frodo > Pippin > Merry > Gimli > Legolas
>>68741491
Didn't take very long to corrupt Isildur

>>68741387
then dont use "le big guys" so they would not be so obvious
perhaps a checkpoint system of wise hobbits
>>68739178
>why would you walk all the way to your drug dealers house?
>why not just have a chain of people pass the drugs and money back and forth?
>>68740050
pretty much all of the problems the characters in seinfeld encounter could be solved via modern technology ie: a mobile phone, or mythological plot devices like giant eagles.
>>68741624
why not indeed
like a hand off only more elaborate by using a system of trusted people to guide the drugs safely to your door
