Gollum was threatened with the torture of playing the new game "The Lord of the Rings: Gollum". He quickly confessed.

"Tharanduil never was very good at keeping prisoners" lolol his failures literally defined both the Hobbit and LOTR plots! Never thought of that until now

I get the feeling it will be a disaster for the usual reasons.

It's crazy to think that such a valiant fighter and leader as Aragorn gave up almost 20 years for the search of Gollum. But it was not in vain.

Hopefully the studio heads come to their senses, and turn The Hunt for Gollum into a trilogy, with the middle entry being a two and a half hour long, 100% CGI barrel riding sequence!

Just imagine Gandalf's frustration when he finally remembered that the One Ring had no gem, and could be identified by fire. All of Middle-earth must've heard that facepalm.

"Thranduil never was very good at keeping prisoners." That made me laugh out loud.

Let's not feel sorry for how they treated Gollum. Man was creeping through windows, snatching babies.

I vote for Robert to record an audio book of LOTR

When you are an immortal being who has been wandering the physical realm for several thousands of years, 16 years may seem like a blink of an eye. Gandalf could probably spend entire weeks or even months just contemplating and pondering stuff, not caring much about what mere mortals would perceive as an enormous amount of time for such a thing.

The passage about Gollum creeping in dens to find young and through windows to find cradles is one of my favorite passages in all of Tolkien's work. Genuinely scary stuff

Your ending was perfect. Reminding us that, though not perfect, they both rejected the ring when offered. And, though good, this story shows that they are not perfect. Let all of us remember that when we falter, we are not forever marred or that being less than perfect takes us forever away from our own identity of ourselves.
