This Little Scene In Which Frodo Tries With His Last Forces To Climb Mount Doom Is Actually So Important

This little scene in which Frodo tries with his last forces to climb Mount Doom is actually so important to me. Even though his mind is obscured by the Ring and part of him doesn’t want to destroy it he still remembers why he has to do it: to save the ones he loves (especially Sam). It is love and the purity of his heart and soul that in the end defeat the power of the Ring.

So, you’re telling me that if it wasn’t for Bilbo’s little jump scare we would have looked at Frodo unbuttoning his t-shirt fully? Oh okay… I don’t really mind 😩🥹🫠

I never told you but I really fell in love with LOTR this summer. I watched it for the first time when I was like 7 years old but I was to little to understand it. What I liked about it was Frodo, I already had a little crush on him. So when this summer I rewatched the films I thought: “my crush is still going strong”

PLEASE SAMFRO LOVERS READ THIS!

I continue reading posts on tumblr where people gets angry because practically the majority of the LOTR fandom sees Samfro as a ship romantically.

I just wanted to say that of course everybody has the right to look at their relationship how they want, like in all things everybody can express their opinion. But I believe Tolkien didn’t mean to show them neither as a romantic couple nor as just friends.

Samfro really represents a kind of relationship that, unfortunately, in our world doesn’t exist between two people who aren’t related: who starts off their relationship as strangers.

It’s a type of love which is more powerful than any love between two lovers or two friends. It is really a love which doesn’t end, which comes from a feeling of belonging to somebody. It is a love that can overcome even the most powerful force of the world (the Ring). What really destroys the power of the Ring in the end? The love between Frodo and Sam.

And that’s because I don’t like to say they are JUST friends/ JUST lovers, because they represent something more powerful. Something that I don’t know how to call because it doesn’t exist in our world.

Let me know if you agree🥰

Do you ever think about the fact that he probably didn’t even know who he was anymore here. He didn’t remember the Shire and the only thing he saw was darkness. I still can’t believe he managed to survive. There is so much strength in him and he is the purest soul. He is so little but so big. God I love him so much.

Yes!!

He gives me courage
