[@MrSpeedyAce]

According to the books, the One Ring had enchantments built into it that prevented ANYONE bearing it from destroying it. It wasn't Frodo or Isildur's fault. It was actually physically impossible for their will to destroy the One Ring.

[@timesupea]

It was beyond mere enchantments it was basically Saurons phylactery

[@shtarkloff]

it was destroyed by Eru Iluvatar's interference

[@andrewvincent7299]

@@shtarkloff Exactly. Eru interfered and helped because if you think about it, it was the kindness of his creations. First with Bilbo who had a chance to kill Gollum but spared him because he still saw goodness in Gollum, then again by Frodo who believed Gollum could be redeemed, and finally by Faramir who also had the chance to kill him and didn't. If it wasn't for that kindness of mercy on Gollum, Frodo would have failed in his quest, but Gollum being alive and able to take the ring was a result to that kindness in which Eru stepped in and helped he creations. It's really beautiful when you think about it.

[@ozma7339]

And who further stoked that kindness and mercy in Frodo when he first wanted to kill such a vulgar creature? Gandalf, who was in all likelihood sent back by Eru Himself. Olorin succeeded in his mission. He turned disgust into pity, the apathy of innocence/ignorance into the empathy/mercy of wisdom. Kindling the Sacred Fire in the hearts of men. Melian taught him well. ​@andrewvincent7299

The dance was awesome. Sam proved that he is the real hero. A man of pure heart.😊

[@christopherpodhajsky5514]

People discount the heroism of Frodo. He sacrificed his heart, mind, body, and soul to get the ring to the brink. No one else could have. Frodo would also carry guilt for not destroying the ring at the last moment, in addition to the wounds which would never heal. (Why he had to leave to find peace elsewhere.) Not to discount Sam at all, but many don't see the living sacrifice Frodo actually permanently became.

[@timovangalen1589]

0:57 This shows just how hard the Ring had to work to corrupt Frodo. Only in the heart of Mount Doom, with all of its master's cruelty and malice fully unleashed, did the Ring manage to break his will.

[@farid1406]

The real hero of this saga isn't Frodo but Sam who is a kind-hearted man. He is a faithful friend to Frodo and he saves him many times.

[@RonnyJimenez1]

“Frodo: 'It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill Gollum when he had the chance.' Gandalf: 'Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play in it, for good or evil, before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.

Epic

[@s-for-success-for-s]

But I think that's kind of the point of the ring. For me, the ring is like "illicit substances"- very difficult to refuse or refrain from. And all the ring bearer are meant to get hooked to it. However, even in real life, Drug addicts aren't all hopeless. The fact that Frodo, a good-natured one also succumbed to the corrupting powers of the rings, for me, is a message that I don't accept. Illicit substances are indeed difficult to quit, but they are doable and possible. This is why I never liked the ending. I would rate TheLordOfTheRings 9/10 just because of that ending.

[@andrewvincent7299]

@@s-for-success-for-s In this case, it wasn't whether Gollum was redeemable or not, but the fact that people believed he could be redeemed. First with Bilbo, then with Frodo, and finally with Faramir. They all had mercy on him and possibly believed he could come back around. If it wasn't for mercy, Gollum never would have been there to take the ring and Frodo would have failed in is quest. Gollum being there because of the kindess of mercy from Eru's creations is ultimately what led him to stepping in and freeing the people of Middle Earth of Sauron. I get what you're saying, but that really wasn't what Tolkien was trying to say when it came to the One Ring and Gollum's fate.

[@Katnip452]

@@andrewvincent7299Well, to be fair to the first poster, Tolkien stated plainly in one of his interviews (on camera) that the pivotal moment emotionally for the entire work in his opinion is when traveling just outside Mordor, Gollum appears like an old hobbit, “an old, starved, pitiable thing,” but Sam spoils the moment by insulting him. So you’re both right.

I love the fact Frodo fails at the end. It adds weight. Noone, perhaps in all of ME could have gotten the ring that far but it was still too much.

[@toky86113]

This is the concept: no one is able to destroy it themselves, that's why Sauron didn't protect the mountain. He just knew no one could stand against ring's temptations. So the ring only could be destroyed by accident, as happens here.

[@PandaBar-ih7qh]

Perhaps Galadriel from Rings of Power or Rey from Star Wars could it done alone.

[@nihilist1680]

@@PandaBar-ih7qh Yes, but it would have been too easy for them. They wouldn't even need any help.

[@andrewvincent7299]

@@toky86113 It wasn't by accident that the ring was destroyed. It was by divine intervention. The mercy that Eru Illuvitar's (the God of this world) creations had on a person who is ultimately irredeemable inspired him to step in and push Gollum into the lava. If people would have given into their blood lust to deal out judgement that isn't really theirs to make, then Gollum would have been dead by the time Frodo made it to Mt Doom and he would have failed in his quest because Gollum wasn't there to take the ring and be pushed into the lava.

[@timovangalen1589]

​@@toky86113 I love the way Tolkien describes it: And far away, as Frodo put on the Ring and claimed it for his own, even in Sammath Naur the very heart of his realm, the Power in Barad-dûr was shaken, and the Tower trembled from its foundations to its proud and bitter crown. The Dark Lord was suddenly aware of him, and his Eye piercing all shadows looked across the plain to the door that he had made; and the magnitude of his own folly was revealed to him in a blinding flash, and all the devices of his enemies were at last laid bare. Then his wrath blazed in consuming flame, but his fear rose like a vast black smoke to choke him. For he knew his deadly peril and the thread upon which his doom now hung. From all his policies and webs of fear and treachery, from all his stratagems and wars his mind shook free; and throughout his realm a tremor ran, his slaves quailed, and his armies halted, and his captains suddenly steerless, bereft of will, wavered and despaired. For they were forgotten. The whole mind and purpose of the Power that wielded them was now bent with overwhelming force upon the Mountain. At his summons, wheeling with a rending cry, in a last desperate race there flew, faster than the winds, the Nazgûl, the Ringwraiths, and with a storm of wings they hurtled southwards to Mount Doom.

[@SaugatSthapit]

“But Gollum, dancing like a mad thing, held aloft the ring, a finger thrust through its golden circle. It shone now as if verily it was wrought of living fire. ‘Precious, precious, precious!’ Gollum cried. ‘My Precious! O my Precious!’ And with that, even as his eyes were lifted up to gloat on his prize, he stepped too far, toppled, wavered for a moment on the brink, and then with a shriek he fell.” (The Return of the King, Book VI, Chapter 3: "Mount Doom")

[@Archelaus_v]

He doesn’t get pushed in the books

[@amchamorro88]

I, who have read the books, then in the book the ring is destroyed because Gollum starts dancing until he reaches the cliff, loses his balance and falls, but I think Peter Jackson wanted to put it that way so that the ring would be destroyed. Because someone who doesn't read the books might think it was a silly way for the ring to be destroyed because Gollum was so happy dancing that he ended up falling and killing himself and I wanted to give it more drama and darkness with the one in the movie, that's what I interpret.

[@ApexGale]

​@@amchamorro88 The reason why it works so well here is because it fits Tolkien's writing - evil ultimately destroys itself. The ring's corrupting hold over both Frodo and Gollum is what caused them to scuffle by the cliff. in their desperation to keep it, it finally went over the edge.

[@timovangalen1589]

@@ApexGale It also echoes Sméagol and Deagol's struggle over the Ring

[@ApexGale]

I like the added portion that the ring is not destroyed until Frodo finally struggles to survive, having received Sam's forgiveness. One final rejection is enough to cause the ring's destruction

[@giacometti23]

So in the end, Gollum is the Hero. Without Gollum, Middle Earth would've been doomed.

[@FuchsiaFire444]

Gollum inadvertently helped, it was his desire to have the ring still. He wasnt a hero, he was an instrument in destiny orchestrated. The heroes were those who sacrificed and did their utmost for the cause. Which includes Frodo.

[@maskedmarvyl4774]

I love that the focus of the entire struggle came down to Gollum leaping up and down on the precipice of Mt. Doom, with the ring in his hand. Everything came down to that moment of capricious chance. At the moment that Frodo put on the ring, Only Gollum knew how to find him and wrestle the ring from him before Frodo escaped, as he had carried it so long himself. The only thing I would have changed is that when Frodo is staring at the ring, I would have shown what he was seeing: the ring, wreathed in fire, taking up his entire field of vision, slowly rotating on the chain in hypnotic fashion, with a huge whooshing sound as the ring turned, and the words of the ring glowing brilliantly on the ring. It would make it understandable that the ring had completely taken over his mind at that point, making it impossible for him to let the ring go. Even Tolkien remarked years later, "you couldn't get rid of Gollum, could you? No matter how wretched he was, he had a central part to play in the story".

[@Rhacman]

And in the end, in the epic showdown between good and evil, good was forced to watch from the bench but won on a technicality when evil fought amongst themselves and lost everything.

I still don't understand how the Ring fits perfectly on Frodo's finger. Sauron was at least 1.5x the height of a man and Hobbits are half the height of men. You'd expect their limbs (fingers) to be proportionally the same size. So did the Ring shrink when Isildur got it and then it shrunk again for Smeagol/Bilbo/Frodo?

And you still make it out alive. A story worthy of the Bible.

[@ConnerMacKenzie]

People always talk badly of Frodo for this but it was physically impossible for anybody to willingly destroy the ring. Gollum had to slip for it to happen. This is why Sauron didn't guard the crack of doom he couldn't even fathom somebody destroying it on purpose.

[@Mingukkie13]

Look I'll never deny the fact that Frodo couldn’t have gotten this far without Sam and I love sam too but I really don't think Sam is the ACTUAL HERO like many people claim. Think about it, everything Sam did he did it because he genuinely loves his friend Frodo. He protects him and cares about him. Frodo was the one who agreed to carry the burden of the ring, Frodo was the one who made the brave decision to leave the fellowship ans travel alone. Frodo was the one who agreed to leave the Shire to get the ring if Gendalf. Sam is loyal, faithful, crazy courageous and protective but Frodo was fearless. He made selfles choices everytime with only one goal. And that goal was to do what's right and save middle earth. You gotta ask yourselves if Sam would have ever agreed to become the ring bearer willingly? Would he have left the shire willingly? The only thing he did willingly is follow Frodo and accompany him. Which is amazing yes but it doesn’t make him 'better' than Frodo like most people suggest.
