The book fans think he should’ve been in the movies.

no I don't.

Gildor Inglorion, Barrow Wights and the Scouring of the Shire by Saruman would’ve been fine in the extended cut.Put Glorfindel back and Jackson at least had some sense to remove Arwen from Helm’s deep.

Didn't he physically touch the Ring when Frodo was hangin' out with him? I might be misremembing that.

>>213788044
It didn’t affect him.

>>213788044
I remember something about him being very unimpressed with the ring.

>>213787810 (OP)
I think he should've. He played an important role by being fairytale-like and allowing for the transition from that to something more serious when the Barrow-wights are introduced, and gave the Hobbits an early experience of an unexpectedly powerful and magic being on their journey. He's almost a herald of things to come.

>>213788044
Yes, Frodo gives him the Ring and he looks at it a bit, then makes it vanish like a magic trick, but then gives it back, without ever giving a damn about it.

Why? is to distracting?

>>213787810 (OP)
Soviet TV adaptation actually has this part. Check it out.

Oh, great... That means Tom Bombadil is going to be hanging around in Elf Heaven across the sea for all eternity. Just singing nonsense songs and acting crazy.

>>213789122
He’s too childish, whimsical, doesn’t advance the plot and messes up pacing. I loved Goldberry’s segment anyway.

and fucking all elf pussy there is

He’s good in the book but shouldn’t have been in the films. Only correct opinion

>DUDE, BOMBADIL WAS GANDALF'S TEACHER

>>213787810 (OP)
Yes you joyless retard.

>>213791621
That's the least ridiculous thing in Rings of Power.

>>213790893
I'm so sick of zoomers and this "advanced the plot" shit as if reading a book is the same as a TikTok on your phone, books don't have episodes you stupid faggot, you can stop reading and pick it back up whenever you want.

Wrong
Put Glorfindel back
>Wrong
Gildor and Glorfindel would be needless extra characters. Barrow Wights would be a good addition and could give Frodo something to do as opposed to being dead weight throughout all 3 moves

>>213791981
>Scouring of the Shire
>wrong
it's the most important part of their journey back to the Shire...

Goldberry is a high level autonomous NPC, so Tom is the Maia equivalent of a based volcel who exclusively dates waifu pillows
