  • The Lord of the Rings: What if Bilbo Took the One Ring to Mordor?
    Nov 18 2024

    The provided episode examines the hypothetical scenario of Bilbo Baggins, Frodo's uncle, being the Ring-bearer in The Lord of the Rings instead of Frodo. It argues that Bilbo's past experiences and skills, particularly his combat prowess and familiarity with Gollum, would have given him an advantage in the early stages of the journey. However, the text also acknowledges that Bilbo's age and the absence of a companion like Samwise Gamgee would have made the latter stages of the journey more difficult and increased the risk of succumbing to the Ring's corrupting influence. Ultimately, the text concludes that while Bilbo might have been able to reach Mordor, Frodo's unique resilience and unwavering commitment made him the only hobbit capable of destroying the Ring.
