And they tell us to throw it all away!

[The Only Real Estel]

Maybe they found the idea of a threatening female inconceivable.

I'm sure your PM box is showing you differently.

Why? Does this have any connection to Boyens, Walsh and Jackson deciding not to have Faramir say "I would not pick it up if it lay by the highway"?

I don't see a connection at all. I have no idea why Bakshi would think it significant to show that someone could resist the Ring; all that does is lend more credence to the 'Could Sam have thrown it in the Mountain?' argument. And PJ decided to show that not everyone could resist the Ring - though why he thought it was really extremely important is something I'll never fully understand.
