Do you mean Mordor?
Also, in the book, when the Fellowship members hold their own counsil just before leaving Lothlorien, Boromir thinks aloud and says things that suggest that he wants to use the Ring as Gondor's weapon against Sauron. Although Sam was sleepy at the time, he could have heard and remembered the words, like he overheard Frodo's and Gildor's conversation in the Shire.
