The Burden of the Ring
|
Can't Post
|
|
While watching the Fellowship of the Ring recently, I noticed how when Bilbo drops the Ring, it is similar to the Palantir in that when they are dropped, they do so with a profound weight that serves as an example of their dark nature. Any one else remember if there were any other instances where the weapons of the enemy or any other dark symbol were introduced or portrayed like this as evil, but in a subtle way? Just wondering.
