i didn't think all the other ring-shots were nessicary, but the one when he's about to leave in the boat was needed. i think it's showing him think of all that's happened to him and his fellow hobbits since they still lived in the peaceful Shire. it's really hard to explain, but it seems as though he's thinking also of all he's leaving behind, and all he's going to be faced w/ in the future. that's what always make me cry at that part. how sad and scary it is for the hobbits. i dunno if that made sense, but in my head it does. lol
