In principle, how is that any different from his exit halfway through FOTR and failure to turn up in the rest of the LOTR story? LR

He could even hand Gandalf his staff on the way out the door

There's a very brief shot of someone holding two brown staffs (staves?) in the latest vlog

I'm suretat you are aware of this, but just in case

I think the two staves are one and the same ...

I don't think the only reason to kill him off is because he wasn't in the trilogy

DanielLB

Aug 22 2012, 2:33pm

The answer is in the books

I like your idea, it sounds plausible...//
|
Gimli1252

|
Yup, I'd be more than happy with that.
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 9:45pm
|
maybe they should just leave it a mystery...
|
Sinister71
|
Aug 22 2012, 9:52pm
|
Yes, that would be fine, if they had done that in the first place (in FOTR)
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 9:57pm
|
I don't think I understand this
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:01pm
|
I was assuming that Radagast simply went back to his home
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:07pm
|
Nope - maybe it's me
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:11pm
|
Because it is explained! He's missing!
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:13pm
|
Well he's out when the scouts call
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:22pm
|
You miss the postman because you go shopping, or go to work.
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:27pm
|
Well that's one reading
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:38pm
|
They're pretty rubbish scouts if they just knocked on his door
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:47pm
|
Well don't worry
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:59pm
|
That's why epilogues can be good things
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:03pm
|
Well I kind of think
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:09pm
|
The general audience probably won't care at all what happens to Radagast, Beorn or Dain.
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:16pm
|
I think they would be presumed out, to me! NT
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:30pm
|
Even if you stayed overnight, on their doorstep, and they still didn't show up?
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:34pm
|
Eh?
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:45pm
|
The scouts went from Rhosgobel to the Redhorn Pass, and back to Rivendell
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:55pm
|
The ring is at Rivendell
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 23 2012, 12:07am
|
Because if no-one in Middle-earth knows where he is, then the reader certainly doesn't know where he is!
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 23 2012, 12:11am
|
Where does it say Gandalf or
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 23 2012, 12:17am
|
Because he was never mentioned again.
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 23 2012, 12:21am
|
This same logic would therefore mean that
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 27 2012, 1:07pm
|
yes the ring is Rivendell during FOTR
|
Sinister71
|
Aug 23 2012, 12:16am
|
Actually, it does say that Radagast was sought for...
|
Otaku-sempai
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:16pm
|
as it should be IMO
|
Sinister71
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:17pm
|
Yes, they should leave it as a mystery
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:21pm
|
Maybe they will show Gandalf and Bilbo stopping by on their way home after its all over and the place will just be vacant and empty...
|
Sinister71
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:25pm
|
Yup, that would be fine with me
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:27pm
|
Hmmmm . . .

You wan't to be more worried about whether Radagast was missing or not ;-) /
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 23 2012, 12:11am
|
Don't think I agree with that.
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:24pm
|
I never suggested that there was a large-scale search.
|
Otaku-sempai
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:35pm
|
No we don't know that.
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:55pm
|
Again, you assume too much...
|
Otaku-sempai
|
Aug 23 2012, 12:03am
|
Well they are the words in the book
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 23 2012, 12:15am
|
Well, there we are then.

Otaku-sempai

Aug 23 2012, 12:19am

I wasn't suggesting they were playing knock and run
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 27 2012, 1:02pm

That is your definition of 'searching'
|
Otaku-sempai
|
Aug 27 2012, 4:13pm
|
Not mine
|
Lacrimae Rerum
|
Aug 27 2012, 5:34pm

The text does not say they were seeking Radagast
|
Shelob'sAppetite
|
Aug 23 2012, 2:19am
|
Of course finding Radagast was of secondary importance (at most)...

The definition of missing

DanielLB

Why should he be expected to be at home?

|
I hadn't realised this topic was still going on
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 27 2012, 9:18pm
|
I don't recall them saying he "couldn't be found."
|
RosieLass
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:50pm
|
That's if you simply read the text as it is on the page
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:54pm
|
I guess I'm under the assumption
|
Sinister71
|
Aug 22 2012, 10:59pm
|
I'm not disagreeing with this
|
DanielLB
|
Aug 22 2012, 11:06pm

they could play it off as something I am sure

Quint's mention of the likeness of Radagast to St. Assisi must've reffered to his affinity to animals

Not exactly Assisi, more like the Flying Nun. //
