Here I would like to thank Sauron, for if it weren't for you this whole deal about the one ring and the whole story of the Fellowship and the War of the Ring would not have existed without you being the great issue.
Again...I thank you good lord for causes us great happiness in the forming of this great story of heroism which teaches the great values of life that the great Eru Illuvatar, Tolkien himself, created for us.
Farewell
*bows to Chapel and Bar-en-Danwedh* You guys are wonderful! *sniff* That was magnificent!! I couldn't have said it better myself...All the stuff you guys wrote on the second page, I mean....That was bloody brilliant! And I still stick to my opinion, LegolasIsMyMan...You and all you other people who think Frodo is a wimp can keep saying he is...I don't care. All I know is that he is NOT a wimp. It's the ring you idiots!!! If you had to carry that heavy burden, you'd be acting like a "wimp" too! Carrying it is enough, much less fighting with that blasted thing on! How can you not understand what it's like for Frodo? You don't understand that the ring was an extremely heavy burden and it's VERY hard to fight or even walk with it on, as you could tell...Alright well I'm done for now....And I don't care if you guys still think Frodo's a wimp because he's not...Gah...

Farewell??? Where are you going, Kit? 😕
Pip....I think he is only a whip in the fact that he always drops his sword and runs to a corner to hide. He has great strong points,but i dont' see how he always does that!?! And in the first movie,when he droped it on weathertop, i believe it was the first movie, he had only the ring for a day or so,it hadn't grown that heavy,because he wasn't that close to sauron, right???

Eeh...seeing that those were 5 Nazguls coming towards me and seeing how they threw aside my friends just to get to me....no matter how cool and awesome I think the Nazguls are, I think I'd drop my sword too if that happened to me.
Actually it didn't matter if he had it for only three hours. It still would have grown heavy for him. And I would have dropped my sword too if five Nazgul were trying to kill me for the frickin ring! He just got freaked out and he didn't know what to do. Sam and Merry and Pippin stood up and fought (if only for a little while, but still) but that's because they didn't have the ring to carry and they could fight. Frodo had the ring and he knew the Nazgul wanted it and he got a little scared. Wouldn't you? Let me put it this way: If you were surrounded by five huge scary dudes in all black with unseen faces and screeching voices and covered in freaky looking armor and they wanted something that was around YOUR neck that you had to carry and destroy, what would you do? Would you try to fight with the risk of being killed and the ring taken from you to go to the Dark Lord and betraying all of your friends and the world, including your own home, to their death? Or would you back away and stay away from them and try to hide to save yourself and to keep the ring away from them? Hmmm?
even in the film hes had the ring for a while, even if gandalf rode all the way to minas tirith, found Isildurs scrolls then rode back to the shire again full pelt on shadowfax it would have taken him weeks (in the book frodo has the ring for 17 years before he leaves the shire).
plus hes already falling from it, he has put the ring on in the prancing pony and was playing with it before hand remember, plus on weathertop hes facing the Nazgul, whos presence & power would disturb the ring bearer greatly, and anyway look what happens to sam when he trys to fight them, he get batted aside like a pesky fly.
in other place like in Moria against the orcs/troll and against Shelob & Gollum he fights.
im not trying to change your mind legolasismyman, im sure you would rather have had the Elf take the ring to the cracks of doom, im just trying to stop you making more people misunderstand frodo.
Frodo & Sam are the biggest, most important characters in the whole story, book or film, the others do important work but at the end of the day its Frodo who takes the Ring to be destroyed and its Frodo who saved the world.

Yes, i would fight for my own life, caues there is always the chance of getting killed for something around my neck if i am FRODO, and it's just me, i would fight, ring or no ring...

Heh...a little joke about Legolas and you're being defensive for him, while in the previous pages you were endlessly calling Frodo a wimp and coward, despite all our awareness that he carried the Ring, went to Mordor, and destroy It. Legolas saved the people at the Pelennor Fields, but Frodo (along with Sam and Gollum) saved the whole Middle-earth.
