How? After getting the Ring, Bilbo stopped aging; Gollum lived for more than 500 years. This means: They stopped aging. Why would Frodo look old, then.? He had stopped aging as well, as we are told...

Makes perfect sense, Inziladun. Perfect. :)
You said "Sam observes" Frodo's transparency; in the book, when Sam sees the LIGHT in Frodo, he says that Frodo's face looked "old and beautiful."...

Yes, that's what I meant in my previous post! I just said he didn't "die." His death also means that his "human (or Hobbit)" part died with the destruction of the Ring and Gollum's death. All those...

Yes, I understood what you were trying to say by Death. But the Morgul-blade wound made him like Glorfindel instead of making like a Wraith. He'd never be the same again. True. But because of the...

I liked that scene. But I won't say that it surpassed the book's. It was Touching and beautiful scene. Hobbits reactions were awesome. :) I also liked that look on Frodo's face. As if he was feeling...

As previously said: Fate. Also, Boromir's temptation became the reason for many other things that affected the quest greatly. Gandalf and Galadriel, perhaps, knew this, and felt this. For some...

I'd agree with your comment that Frodo started living in both worlds, but cannot agree that he 'died'. We all know, his wound was spiritual more than being physical; and this is why his spirit was...

Gandalf might be referring to the future Frodo would have as the result of the quest. Though, I feel, the comment by Gandalf has more meaning than it appears to us. Gandalf, Galadriel, and Elrond's...

No, no. Tolkien portrayal of Eowyn is, I believe, the strongest one. When she confronts Witch King she not only defies him, but KILLS him. This Shows she does not have to be with someone to survive....

As someone said on Tolkien's forum you're not going to get "yes," and I agree with him/her. I haven't read the books, but I myself Cannot see GOT books better than LotR. Tolkien was a perfectionist...

I agree with most of the posts here. When Frodo finds out about Boromir's death, there must be many thoughts inside his head. He was being interrogated by the brother of the Man who tried to seize...
