Analysis Of The Book ' We Must Go '

When the dwarves finally arrive at Lake-Town, the men of the town treat them like kings. The men give them food and hospitality, and they also help them get up to the Lonely Mountain. The help from the men of Lake-Town allows the dwarves to be rested and ready to face the dragon. The group works as a team to find the hidden door into the mountain. Bilbo can only get into the door with the help of Thorin, the group's leader. Thorin unlocks the door with the key. Without the joint effort between Thorin and Bilbo, the group wouldn’t have made it into the mountain. Once the door is open, Bilbo walks in, but Balin goes with him, because he wants to make sure Bilbo is safe. “‘Who is coming with me?’ asked Bilbo. He didn’t expect a chorus of volunteers, so he wasn't disappointed. [...] The others made no pretence of offering- except old Balin, who was rather fond of the hobbit” (Tolkien 213). This shows that the group cares about one another, and are working together to complete their quest. The group is also helped by the men of Lake-Town and Thrush. Once Bilbo finds that Smaug has a bare hole over his heart, he tells the other dwarves about the dragon’s weakness, and Thrush overhears. Thrush relays the information to the men in Lake-Town. Later that night, Smaug leaves his lair, and attacks Lake-Town. Many people shoot at

Gollum is, “...as dark as darkness, except for two big round pale eyes on his thin face.” (Pg. 82) He is a lonely fellow, and believes that Bilbo’s fate is sealed. Gollum underestimated Bilbo’s expertise, and promptly challenges him to a high stakes riddle contest. If Bilbo fails to answer Gollum’s riddle correctly, he becomes Gollum’s lunch. If Gollum loses, Gollum has to tell Bilbo how to escape. Bilbo thinks on his feet in an effort to gain his freedom. In the form of a riddle, Bilbo asks Gollum to identify the object in Bilbo’s pocket. The cave is extremely dark and Gollum can’t see what is in Bilbo’s pocket, so Gollum cannot know the answer. These circumstances parallel with the scene between Bilbo and Smaug in chapter

Frodo, the protagonist of The Fellowship of the Rings, is given his call to adventure at the Shire. It occurs when Gandalf realizes that Bilbo Baggins’ ring is in fact the One Ring of Sauron, the dark lord. This ring contains great power and evil within it. Gandalf realizes the artifact’s true danger, and realizes it must be taken from the peaceful Shire. He entrusts the task of its transportation to Frodo Baggins, the nephew of Bilbo, calling Frodo to his adventure. Hobbits such as he are ideal for this mission due to their natural aversion to power. Coupled

Bilbo encountered Gollum in a cave located in the depths of the Misty Mountains near Goblin-town. Gollum was a Stoor Hobbit of the River-folk. He wasn’t just a test, but also an enemy of Bilbo. Gollum had a riddle battle with Bilbo, which both Bilbo and Gollum would have to solve alternatively. If Bilbo wins, Gollum would tell him the way out. Prior to that, Bilbo obtained the Ring; this Ring helps Bilbo escape from Gollum. Gollum called the Ring his “birthday present.” Gollum realizes that Bilbo stole the ring, and would get it back at any cost. Bilbo didn’t know what the ring did until he wore it, it made him invisible. Bilbo quickly escaped and found the way out. But he didn’t realize there were goblins. Bilbo also eluded them, but little he knew, the dwarves were there too. He finally reunited with the dwarves and Gandalf; they were so pleased to see he was alive. When Bilbo told his mates about how him being a young hobbit, succeeded to escape Gollum. Everyone began to praise him. The dwarves started to respect him a great deal more after he said to them that he dodged all the guards and escaped Gollum. This test showed Bilbo how

After a few more obstacles the group makes it to Rivendell; the Elves kingdom where they find more information to add on their map for the quest. So after receiving the information the group passes over the Misty mountains where they encounter another obstacle; the Goblins. While the group are fighting off the goblins, Bilbo gets separated from them and is lost in the tunnels. While searching for a way out, Bilbo finds a shiny gold ring and meets Gollum. Gollum agreed to show Bilbo the way out if he could solve his riddles if he can’t solve them then he will die.

Tolkien, The Hobbit, page 178). In the midst of the battle against the spiders, Bilbo told the dwarves this. He sacrificed himself in order to save the dwarves from the spiders. After they escaped from the grasp of the spiders, they were locked in the elves kingdom- except for Bilbo. On page 194 of The Hobbit the author states, “Then in crept the Hobbit. Very soon the chief guard had no keys, but Bilbo was trotting as fast as he could along the passage towards the cells” (J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit, page 194). Once again, Bilbo used the advantages of his magic ring to save the dwarves from their predicament. Later on, Bilbo conducted an escape plan and saved the dwarves. Finally, on page 230 of The Hobbit, Thorin states, “Now is the time

"No great leap for man, but a leap in the dark. Straight over Gollum's head he jumped, seven feet forward and three in the air; indeed, had he known it, he only just missed cracking his skull on the low arch of

Mr. Baggins’ hidden sneaks and quick thinking is one of his qualities in his transformation. Arranged in the story, Bilbo challenges a creepy, glutinous being called Gollum whose purpose was to demolish him. In intention to carry out time, Bilbo played a riddle game with the creature, approving if Bilbo held the victory, Gollum will companion him outside. Nonetheless, if Gollum held the victory, Bilbo’s significance is enclosed as Gollum’s next meal. After discontinuous uncountable riddles, its Bilbo’s saying that dominated. Challenging “What have I got in my pockets?” (Tolkien 78). This left Gollum speechless making him to discharge Bilbo. Similar to Bilbo’s encounter with Gollum is his hostility with Smaug. Unexpected to Bilbo’s agreement with Gollum is with Smaug. Yet,

In chapter 5 Bilbo is trapped in a cave with Gollum. Bilbo and Gollum agree to play a game of riddles that could mean life or death. When they get to the last one gollum says to ask a question. When Gollum does get Bilbo's question wrong he remembers he lost his precious. Then Gollum led the way out without knowing he was being followed.

Throughout chapter five, Bilbo finds himself gaining more bravery, but also more self-confidence. Once Bilbo opened his eyes in the dark cave he "could not think what to do; nor could he think what had happened; or why he had been left behind' or why, if he had been left behind, the goblins had not caught him" (26). Bilbo gets the confidence to get up and start moving around even though it's basically pitch black. While making his way through, Bilbo "crawled along for a good way, till suddenly his hand met what felt like a tiny ring of cold metal lying on the floor of the tunnel" (26). The tiny cold ring is what started his encounter with Gollum, and it was a "turning point in his career, but he did not know it" (26).

Being a hobbit who's lived his entire life in a comfortable hole in the ground, he's very reluctant to adventure with Gandalf and the dwarves. But when Gandalf leaves the group, Bilbo's heroic instinct kicks in. With the help of his invisibility ring, Bilbo rescues the dwarves whenever they happen to run into trouble, especially throughout Mirkwood, when they run into the spiders or the elves. The bravest thing Bilbo ends up doing, however, comes when he and the dwarves reach the Lonely Mountain. Being the first individual to enter the dragon's lair, he meets the infamous Smaug, discovers a weakness in its armor, and smoothly talks his way out of being eaten by the gargantuan

In the action adventure film The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, Peter Jackson uses a variety of conventions and cinematic techniques to explore and amplify the emotional intensity of particular scenes. The film follows a traditional action adventure plot whereby heroes defeat villains in a battle where good triumphs over evil and disputes are resolved by physical force or violence. It’s the story of a young, ordinary hobbit named Bilbo Baggins, who lives a peaceful life at Bag End, until Gandalf the wizard pays him a visit where he accepts to set out on an unexpected quest with 13 dwarves.

His friends give him courage. Without his friends in the Barrow, he might have fled in fear, instead of standing up with courage against the barrow-Wight. They are not aware of it yet, but these tiny hobbits will fight in legendary battles against absurd odds, but they will not be alone, they will have friends beside them to help each other out. They will use each other as a crutch when facing debilitating fear. None of them could do it alone, and luckily, they don’t have

Being known as a hero is a hard thing to comprehend. Whether you are risking your life to save the world, or you are a high school kid trying to deal with the pressure of being a star athlete, you are always under pressure. Throughout the end of the novel The Two Towers Frodo and Sam are led by Gollum to the gates of Mordor. Along the way Sam and Frodo meet Faramir, a man of Gondor, who gives them a place to rest. After their time with Faramir Gollum leads Sam and Frodo to the stairs of Cirith Ungol, a secret passageway into Mordor. Once up the stairs, a spider-like creature named Shelob attacks Sam and Frodo. Sam escapes, but watches as Frodo is captured by Orcs and taken to a cell. True Legend starts off with a boy named Drew Robinson, who

Frodo who is the fundamental hobbit in the Return of the King, has acknowledged the enormously risky undertaking of taking the Ring up the inclines to the flames of Mordor, from where it had been made and where it must be crushed. Closer to the end of the astonishing arrangement, the Ring gets to be an incredible load on Frodo. He battles with its energy and steady allurement all through the book. Anyhow, he has an incredible companion who he inclines toward through the book. Frodo says this to Sam after the ring is obliterated. (1) "I am happy you are here with me. Here toward the end of all things, Sam" (Tolkien 250).
