Indeed, I'm surprised no one has mentioned this before... [In reply to] Can't Post

I always thought it strange they omitted the Green Dragon meet up - instead we're supposed to believe Bilbo can run fast enough to catch Dwarves on ponies in the middle of the Shire. I guess there was only one path they could have taken, but how did he even know what time they left, or how far ahead they'd be?

******************************************
The audacious proposal stirred his heart. And the stirring became a song, and it mingled with the songs of Gil-galad and Celebrian, and with those of Feanor and Fingon. The song-weaving created a larger song, and then another, until suddenly it was as if a long forgotten memory woke and for one breathtaking moment the Music of the Ainur revealed itself in all glory. He opened his lips to sing and share this song. Then he realized that the others would not understand. Not even Mithrandir given his current state of mind. So he smiled and simply said "A diversion.”

I also missed the scene, but there is nothing hard to believe about what was done. The mounted Company is moving slowly at this point and Bilbo is running. If he had had much farther to go to catch up with them then that might have been more problematic.

"The Great Scaly One protects us from alien invaders and ourselves with his fiery atomic love. It can be a tough love - the “folly of man” and all that - but Godzilla is a fair god.

"Godzilla is totally accepting of all people and faiths. For it is written that liberal or conservative, Christian or Muslim or Jew, straight or gay, all people sound pretty much the identical as they are crushed beneath his mighty feet."
- Tony Isabella, The First Church of Godzilla (Reform)
