Lord Of The Rings The Fellowship Of The Ring Essay

The men and elves and dwarves are about to wage war on each other in front of the mountain when Gandalf shouts that the goblins are coming. Everyone forgets their quarrel about gold and jewels and join together to fight the goblins and wargs in a final battle of Good and Evil. This battle is later referred to the Battle of the Five Armies.

Aragorn, also known as Strider, is a friend of Gandalf and as such, knows that Frodo carries the ring. Aragorn is instrumental in helping the hobbits reach Rivendell. Without him, the hobbits would have gotten murdered in their sleep at Bree. Aragorn insists that they not sleep in the hobbit rooms, but instead sleep in a dining room. When they go to their room the next morning, they find it trashed and the beds where the hobbits were to have slept ripped to shreds. Aragorn also guides them through the wilderness, helping them navigate towards Rivendell. When the Black Riders catch up with them and give Frodo a dangerous cut, Aragorn is able to find a plant to soothe the pain and help Frodo continue on to Rivendell. The hobbits would have met a rather untimely ends without Aragorn to guide and advise them on their

It would possess him" (70). After having said this, he tells Frodo how this ring of doom originated. Clearly, Gandalf is wise enough to know that behind all that power lies weakness and evil. Even if one might first use the ring for something good and meaningful to others, it will eventually possess that person and make that person the slave to the ring. Galadriel even knows this quite well. Frodo offers her the ring, since he believes she deserves it the most and also knows how to control it. When Frodo tells her this, Galadriel seems to be strongly tempted to take the power offered by Frodo. She tells him, "For many long years I had pondered what I might do, should the Great Ring come into my hands, and behold!" (431). The exclamation point reveals to us how Galadriel might be really taken in by the thought of power at this moment and how raptured she is in this thought. But, she too is wise as Gandalf is. In the end, she even tells Frodo, "We will not speak more of it" (431). She knows that even speaking about such power can bring about destruction. Interestingly though, Galadriel seems to be almost crazy at this moment, presenting herself to Frodo while relating to him what "good" she could bring to her elves. The ring is so alluring. Too much of a good thing cannot last long. She is

Like all archetypal heroes, Frodo begins in an ordinary world. He lives in the Shire with family and close friends. He does not seek adventure, and he is content to sit, smoke a pipe, and tell stories. He receives his call to adventure when Gandalf shows up and asks him to carry the ring to flames of Mount Doom. The ring has been causing a disturbance in Middle Earth, and Gandalf believes Frodo can handle the challenge. Frodo is reluctant to answer the call. He is comfortable and happy, and the journey

Three Rings for the Elven-Kings under the sky, Seven for the dwarf lords in their halls of stone, Nine for mortal men doomed to die, One for the Dark Lord in his dark throne. In the Land or Mordor where the shadow lies.

Frodo Baggins is one of the main characters in this movie. He was given the ring from Bilbo when he announced that he was leaving the shire. Bilbo trusted Frodo to get the ring and since the focus of the story is on the ring, that makes the ring-bearer our main character, known as the hero. Frodo is a hero because he always tried his best to follow the directions he was told, even when it was tempting to do otherwise. The ring is very powerful, and his mission was to destroy the ring before Sauron and his men could get to it. By taking charge of this mission, he is a very heroic character.

“One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them,” (55). The One Ring controls Gollum, Bilbo, Boromir, and Frodo in attempts to return to Sauron, Its Creator, the Lord of the Rings, and the utmost evil present in J.R.R. Tolkien’s novels. But the Ring never achieves Its goal because each character possesses a unique set of skills which resist the evil temptations of the Ring. Gollum is the first victim of the Ring, with no knowledge of Its powers or guidance away from Its control. Bilbo is the second ring bearer, with an almost complete knowledge of the Ring’s power still has difficulty resisting the Ring’s temptation. Gandalf guides Bilbo to constantly resist the evil of the Ring.

Their journey will take them into the Wild; through dangerous lands swarming with Goblins, Orcs and deadly Giant Spiders. Through the journey of reclaiming the lonely mountain, Bilbo has found himself a ring with unique powers. A simple gold ring that may change the fate of Middle-earth in ways Bildo cannot begin to

After Bilbo hit his head he woke up in this cavern it was pitch black. When he realized he could not see he decided to feel around. After a while of feeling around he noticed the feeling of a ring. He had found this ring. He had met a creature that he played a game with if Bilbo won Gollum had to show him his way out.

Thus, Frodo becomes more crucial to the plot than in Tolkien’s work. He is ultimately the individual that keeps an open mind in very abstract situations. Another example that demonstrates Jackson's compromise between the characters is in the same scene. As Tolkien originally wrote,“He stooped and picking

Frodo Baggins begins his journey to save Middle Earth from Sauron and his army. In this journey, Frodo must first go to Rivendell to be part of the council meeting with his 3 hobbit friends. Before his journey, Gandalf tells him to stop at Bree a small town in the middle of Rivendell and the Shire. On his way, he encounters the Nazgul, Sauron’s strongest warriors. Sauron sent them to find the ring and bring it back to him.

"Three Rings for the Eleven-kings under the sky, Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone, Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die, One for the Dark Lord on his Dark throne, In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie. One Ring to rule them all, One ring to find them, One ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them, In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie(Tolkien)." Master of storytelling J.R.R. Tolkien continues the lives of the fictitious creatures that he introduced in The Hobbit, in his modern classic The Fellowship of the Ring. He artfully illustrates the truths of the evil that plague the hearts of man. He tells a story of greed, destruction and how mortal men are enslaved by

Galadriel is a kind and generous elf who is the Lady of Lórien. During the Company’s stay she is tempted by the Ring but decides to reject it. Galadriel shows great hospitality to the Company when they arrive from the Mines of Moria; she gives them clothes, supplies and gifts. While the Fellowship stays in Lórien Frodo offers the Ring to her. Galadriel states that she has wondered what she would do if she had the One

The most appealing character in the movie The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), directed by Peter Jackson, was the Ring of Power. Once greater attention is payed to the Ring, there are many hints at it’s consciousness, from the statement that the ring has a will of it’s own to the hints at Sauron’s very soul being part of the ring. With it’s will to dominate and direct alliances to Sauron, it’s obvious why the Ring is so enticing as a character. The One Ring is an extension of Sauron himself, having a certain duality with Mordor’s dark lord. While Frodo and Gandalf were speaking in Bilbo Baggins’s house, Gandalf stated, “The spirit of Sauron has endured. His life force is bound to the Ring and the Ring survived … Sauron needs only this Ring to cover all the lands in the second darkness.

The book I am reporting on is The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. The setting of the story begins in a place called Middle Earth. The story begins in Began where Mr. Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit lives. Bilbo, thirteen dwarves and a wizard travel to Rivendell, Misty Mountains and finally Mirkwood. The book was set before the Lord of the Rings but it is unclear exactly when. The story is a fantasy so time is not important.
