Frodo & Sam [merged]

yeah but people seem to like him After ROTK came out .. or is it just my imaginationn ???

Probably cos Sean managed to get a dfferent emotion form the phrase "Mr. Frodo" every time he said it! 😄

lol

"mr frodo, i've drowneded"

"I want to hear more about Sam! Ah yes...Samwise the Brace...Frodo couldn't've gone far without Sam."

The most interesting thing I noticed is that, correct me if I'm wrong but in RotK didn't it seem like when Frodo asked for the ring back. It seemed like Sam was reluctant because he noticed how affective it's been to Mr. Frodo or if he didn't want to give it up...

I can't really decide...

What is going on with that why did frodo dismis sam when he went into shelob's lair??? It was not in the book.

It did add emotion to the film but it was quite disruptive to the book...does anyone else agree?

aww even though it wasnt in the book, it was a very sad moment, i think it was wonderful that the scene was added, it put so much emotion into the film, it was a very very emotional moment, i was bawling, i felt so bad for sam

i loved it ;-)

Yeah it was quite different from the books but I think it was better that way. I mean he leaves Sam then he faces this giant spider, finds out that Smeagol is the one and tries to go on without his dear Sam.

Yep. It will also add a lot of dramatic tension. He faces Shelob alone without any help. Without Sam, no one will be there to save him but himself and his own wits and the Phial of Galadriel. It also portrayed much stronger how loyal Sam is to him when he went back to save him. 🙂 That scene is also very powerful. It made me cry. 🙂

Yes very...I also liked when Frodo sees Galadriel and she pulls him up but it's really himself pulling him up....

I didn't think it was disruptive...still very well done - emotional.

I must admit that it was rather unexpected, but this allowed the viewers to see just how the Ring was affecting Frodo, Gollum's influence and the fact that, even if he felt alone, he wasn't because all his companions were thinking of him (represented by the part with Galadriel).

Also, if Sam had been there at the time, the whole scene with GAladriel would not have worked no where near as well...

Well, that's my opinion and my ideas anyway!😄

Well said Cam. Even though your view of Galadriel's appearance is totally opposite of mine. 😄

Well, I believe that it is his own will and strength that causes him to stand again, but I believe that he needs a reminder that there IS some good in this world that is worth fighting for (oopsey, didn't mean to quote that).

I think it can be looked at many different ways:
1.) Galadriel says "If you do not find a way, no one will." - he is determined to prove this correct e.g. to do what he has set out to do
2.) He sees Galadriel as a ray of hope.
3.) Galadriel represents all the beautiful things in the world that will be lost if he does not complete his task
4.) It reminds him that there ARE people out there who are on his side and wish him good, not ill.

Ok, I'm all out of ideas now! That's my analytical studies done for the week!!🙂

And by the movie point of view Galadriel is the first real elf that Frodo really had a connection with and she had shown him what will happen if he didn't complete the task...

i know, but thats what i liked most about lotr. sam and frodos bond was so close they never gave up or left each other, NEVER. it was the friendship that led them so far...and when he dismised him it was so dif than the book...but i still liked it in the movie, but i was kinda mad they messed with that part of the book

That's why it's a film version smod, the plot and the characters should serve the story. 😉 Don't compare the book and the movie that much because if you do, you will just be disappointed. 😉

i LOVED that scene. made me cry too. i love sam too. he's my favourite character. i think his loyalty to frodo to just so touching. *sniff sniff*

I agree with that...but that separation of sam and frodo whats to show thedecieve of frodo to the ring of power...
