    Anon didn’t read the books.

    Samwise goes to the undying lands after having a family, watching them become adults and a stint as the mayor of hobbiton.

      I respect the movies, but the further into the story they got the more incomprehensible and arbitrary the deviations from the book became.

      also Gandalf was the one who insisted he go with Frodo, after his dubious claims against ‘dropping eaves’.

      so why would Frodo be telling Gandalf about the person who Gandalf insisted on going with him?

      Yea but Sam wasn’t experiencing hardcore PTSD from the combo of carrying the ring and getting stabbed by a morgul blade

        I always thought that’s what Sam understood. The ring was fucking with Frodo and what Frodo was doing wasn’t normal so he stepped up. It’s like when your friend is tripping balls and paranoid but you’re still there to help.
