Why didn’t the eagles just carry them to mount doom? They could have tossed the ring in without a problem

IMPLYING PHYSICS CHANGE DEPENDING ON WHO THREW RING

Real talk: the birds were susceptible to the rings power.

Why didn't anybody go pay a goblin to steal some mordor lava and bring it to the ring?

read the books, it explains this

the eagles are dicks who get tired of everybody relying on them to save the day so they take a hands off approach and let these lazy cunts solve their own problems until they absolutely have to intervene

why didn't saruman just tell gandalf to take the ring somwhere vulnerable and send the nazgul there?

Because the Eagles could not fly in mordor where the skies were patrolled by the nazgul ...
They all die when the the ring is destroyed

Are you implying that Frodo had a right to the eagles' labor? That's just slavery, with extra steps. Eagles are sovereign citizens of Middle Earth and are not obligated to fly halflings around everywhere, as if they don't have their business to attend to. Why don't you fucking use your brain next time, socialist faggot.

Magic motherfucker, don't need to explain shit. If the ring has a willed to be destroyed rule then it has it.

>why didnt voldemort use a gun to kill harry

Because childrens books dont have to make sense.

Why didn't hobo just tell Gannalf to piss off and then fucked Rosie's cotton?

Why not just eat the ring? Can't influence you to wear it then and you can just jump into the magma to end the madness.

they're not a taxi service, that's why.

>Why didn’t the eagles just carry them to mount doom?
Because then three books wouldn't have been required to tell the tale.

>The ring must be "unmade" which means an individual must go inside mt. doom and will the ring to be destroyed. If they just throw it into the magma the ring would just sink and not melt
Incorrect. There is no canon that says this.

>Because the eye of Sauron would have spotted them and burned them down
They might've at least dropped them off closer.

>Real talk: the birds were susceptible to the rings power.
The eagles were uninterested in the politics of men. The ring did not affect them at all.

>Why didn't anybody go pay a goblin to steal some mordor lava and bring it to the ring?
I don't think goblin technology existed to keep it liquid that far.

>why didn't saruman just tell gandalf to take the ring somwhere vulnerable and send the nazgul there?
Saruman wanted it for himself and intended to defeat Sauron with his own army and the ring.

but the nazgul were sent to fetch the ring anyways?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

why didn't Tolkien just die in the trenches?
OP you are indeed a faggot and teen...kys.

Saruman would not get to keep it for himself if the nazgul got it.

yeah but the nazgul were sent to fetch the ring anyway even before saruman had his uruk hai (btw how do they know what menus are?) for the ring

Come off it. They intervene loads of times. They could've flown the shit to Mt. Doom and saved themselves loads of work. I read the books and no it's not addressed because it's a fucking plot hole. At no point does any character nor does the narrator expound upon why this would not work. Neckbeards ITT damage control for Tolkien like he'd give a shit

tolkien was a kike lover and no doubt if he was alive today he would 100% be behind LoTR getting more "diverse"

Good thread.

>implying physics
A lot of the things and creatures in those stories clearly break the laws of physics and/or Galileo's square-cube law. Fellbeasts without feathers? C'mon man.

Just accept magic or GTFO.

Why couldn't Gandalf encase the ring in stone and have Frodo get on one of those Elves Gone Wild party boats and just throw it overboard in the middle of the sea?

very Jow Forums

Because they were not hired as private tactical bombers.
Or maybe they are doing only civilian/humanitarian transportation or something like that. Like Red Cross.

The politics of the LOTR trilogy are important.

But how is any of this politically /incorrect/?

>tolkien was a kike lover
Proof of this?

being against the invasion of orcish hordes in middle earth is politically incorrect

trust me dawg, pure gut instinct here refined from years of browsing /pole

>That's just slavery, with extra steps

"Fly, you fools."
Gandalf wanted to take Caradhras pass, the shortest route to the Eagle's Eyrie. Everyone else pusses out in the snow and Frodo decides to take Gimli's stupid suggestion.
Balrog rape ensues.
Gandalf tries to tell them, but fucks up because he is a vague cunt.

Fucking faggot jannies slow as fuck

The more powerful your race, the stronger the corrosive effect of the ring has on you. The eagles were one of the strongest and therefore more susceptible, just like how gandalf wouldn't take it. He intentionally left in in the hands of a hobbit, one of the weakest races in middle earth.

>"Fly, you fools."
kek'd audibly

Saruman in the books was allied with Sauron while secretly trying to build himself up as a new power. He sent the Uruk-hai to capture the One Ring for himself and would not have willingly returned it to Sauron.

The movies just make it seem like he was Sauron's servant.

Memeflag bullshit

Yep i fucked your mother

Both Sauron and Saruman had scouts watching the sky therefore they would have seen the eagles coming from miles away and would be able to prepare for it and they would have had to fight the all the 9 nazgul on their dragon hybrid creatures not to mention Sauron could probably just mean mug them to death as the evil eye. An eagle probably couldn’t look at the eye of Sauron without being affected or paralyzed thats why you stupid cunt.

well shit that's the best explanation i've heard

Attached: 1523305053181.png (461x583, 2K)

Because that would have been too high profile and they would have been ripped to shreds by Sauron's flyers.

the eagles didnt want to get involved, read the books.

besides, the eagles would have taken the ring, it corrupts all sentient creatures to its will

>Source: Dude trust me

This is the most simple explanation.

Gandalf couldn't take it. Galadriel couldn't take it. But somehow the eagles wouldn't have had a problem carrying it, and that's a plothole? NO!

the nazgul

GOD DAMMIT! He's right, but he's a fucking memeflaggot. Go fucking kill yourself, you god damn nigger. Repost what you said with your nation's flag, and I'll get behind you. Until then, I hope you get herpes.

>they would have had to fight the all the 9 nazgul on their dragon hybrid creatures
These didn't exist until their ground mounts drown.

he based the dwarves on jews. sure they dwarves are greedy fucks but they're also honorable and brave warriors, which is giving jews way too much credit.

READ THE BOOKS, FAGGOT.

Gandalf tried to convince the eagles to help, but they told him to fuck off because they were tired of dealing with Middle Earth's bullshit.

I'm sorry what is the problem with this? How can any of those dudes who want it survive swimming to the bottom of a lava pool anyways?

>tons of times

I count count them on one hand.

>The eagles were one of the strongest and therefore more susceptible, just like how gandalf wouldn't take it. He intentionally left in in the hands of a hobbit, one of the weakest races in middle earth.
Nope. The hobbits had strength to resist the ring because they didn't seek power. The eagles were uninterested in the affairs of men, and unlikely affected by the ring as well. Gandalf would have been susceptible because he was a Mayar, same as Sauron.

But the orcs were winning the war, if the ring wasn't destroyed then the orcs would have destroyed the white race of Gondor.

>But somehow the eagles wouldn't have had a problem carrying it, and that's a plothole?
The eagles were simply uninterested in getting involved.

Yeah, remember reading an actual book instead of some faggots interpretation of a book, imagine that

Why didn't Frodo put it on his dick.

Tolkien always stated that the books were not allegorical.

You were in the lotr thread this morning with the long gif with retarded boromir and the catapult, weren’t you?

Why didn't Elrond just tackle Isildur into the volcano when he had the chance?

Because then the story would have been like three pages long and nobody would have made any money.

There are twenty people here saying the ring would be too strong for the eagles. They probably only watched the movies. The eagles were opposed to interfering in the affairs of middle earth. Period.

I assume something could go in lava. Balrog maybe, imagine if he was invisible.

It was already small. Invisible would have destroyed his self-confidence as a hobbit man.

>physics
>fantasy

Because they tried this shit with B-1B Lancers and they got shot down by orkish S-500.
And WW3 started shortly after that kek lol.
"Threads" and sheeet, Gigaton exchange, cities burning, hobbit's briton bunkers got deep bombed by series of 1MT nukes, mountains owned by Balrog's chemtroops, Mirkwood burned to soil by 50MT strategic sunburst and other funny things happened (because i don't remember anymore ME's fucking landmarks and don't care, fuck you).

And after that they all came from fallout shelters to clean the irradiated dirt off and started to reconstruct they shitty societies. No proposed "prolonged radiation effects" happened, except every single sputnik in the sky became a EMP-burned tin can of garbage.

it wouldn't fit. his girth is around 7 inches. you can't deny this

Hobbits are hung?

Like Sauron wouldn't roast them and carve them up for Thanksgiving. And why did they suddenly go
>you got the hard work done? Great, I'll rescue you and take you back to the elf dudes
At the end?

Sauron has spies in the air, and oh yeh, fuckin nazgul ridin' fell beasts to dumb idiot

I’m actually getting behind the eating it idea now.

That's not said anywhere that I recall.

Fly, you fools!

More than that the ring amplifies abilities of magical beings so Galadriel can summon storms and Balrog could probably summon volcanoes.

I literally overheard a Jew in my calculus class explain this to someone: Gandalf was telling them, “fly you fools!“ as in to fly with the Eagles which were at the top of the mountains at the exit of Moria. But idk.

This right here

>not Jewish
>but he wishes he was
I thought Tolkien was redpilled?

>Indestructible ring melts in lava
>Somehow make a box that won't melt with lava in it

>They might've at least dropped them off closer.
wouldn't have mattered if everyone in mordor knew exactly where they were.
>The eagles were uninterested in the politics of men. The ring did not affect them at all.
They were uninterested in the politics of men, but I don't know that the ring wouldn't have affected them. The only person it's shown having no effect on is bombadil.
he sent out the nazgul before he knew gandalf knew where the ring was. gandalf tipped his hand, saruman imprisoned him.
I don't remember exactly how it went down in the book, but iirc gandalf notices his cloak isn't actually white, and is instead made up of many colors so as to appear white, which tells him he's a liar and something something...

Saurons spies would have seen the eagles coming.

Then Sauron would have sicced a fuckton of these things on the eagles.

You need to sneak in to Mordor, that's the only way. If Sauron knows you're coming he's going to work out a counter pretty quick and then you're fucked.

Literally this.

Sauron has evil birds scouting and shit, they'll spot the beards and just put a lid on the volcano you fucking IMBECILES

Once with the fellowship, once with gandalf... maybe once in a battle? I seem to remember them dropping rocks, but I might be thinking of the hobbit.

What part of getting roasted by sauron would make the eagles more interested in getting involved. When Sauron was gone and no longer a threat, along with the armies of orcs who tried to shoot them, Gandalf was able to convince them to go help out the one that got rid of the threat. Just because the eagles didn't want to get involved doesn't mean that they also couldn't be killed by doing so. It's just another reason not to get involved.

>The only person it's shown having no effect on is bombadil.
>person

Because he believed Isildur could be saved.

>Balrog could probably summon volcanoes.
I gotta read the pre-Hobbit books. Which are the best to start with? My English teacher said Children of Huron is dull but the rest are pretty good. Which has the actual war where they cut off Sauron's finger?

>bombadil.
Funny they left him out of the movies entirely.

person is a reasonable term here. having a personality.
i didn't say human

>Children of Huron is dull but the rest
>pre-Hobbit books
The only official canon is the Silmarillion. Children of Huron was written by his son from his notes. Anything else that exists is probably on the same level. The Silmarillion was his last book, but is the history of Middle Earth.

They could just fly at night. Good luck shooting down an eagle at night faggot
