Theory One: Frodo Lives in the Undying Lands The dialogue continues, where it does not in the book (borrowing words from elsewhere in the book):įrodo: We set out to save the Shire, Sam. I will not say do not weep, for not all tears are an evil.” Here at last, on the shores of the sea, comes the end of our Fellowship. His lines are slightly different in the movie: Go in peace! I will not say: do not weep for not all tears are an evil.” Gandalf says, in the book: “Well, here at last, dear friends, on the shores of the Sea comes the end of our fellowship in Middle-earth. He also says: “I am wounded, wounded it will never really heal.” This suggests that remaining in Middle-earth- living-is too difficult. It must often be so, Sam, when things are in danger: some one has to give them up, lose them, so that others may keep them.” I tried to save the Shire, and it has been saved, but not for me.

The Lords of the Rings Trilogy: domestic and global box office revenue 2018 The Hobbit, which Tolkien had written as a children’s book and which is much shorter than The Lord of the Rings, was adapted into a trilogy as well and turned out to be equally successful in cinemas. There have been other adaptations of the trilogy, for radio, stage, and television, but none were ever that successful.Īfter the immense success of The Lord of the Rings, Jackson then decided to also adapt the prequel. The third part in particular, The Return of the King, was very popular. The ages of his characters differ wildly Gollum is almost 600 years old, while Elrond, the elf, is several thousand years old, and Gandalf the Grey – and later the White – is immortal (for display reasons, both are thus not mentioned here).Īlready an established literary success, the 2001-2003 The Lord of the Rings movie adaptations by Peter Jackson were also extremely successful at the box office and even won several Oscars. Tolkien not only invented a whole universe, he also did not adhere to known age structures when he wrote The Lord of The Rings.
