  • Many have asked, "Why didn't the Fellowship use the eagles to fly into Mordor?" In this video, I give my over the top take on why. Although walking into Mordor is never simple, it is more discreet.

    Moreover, LOTR made clear the threat don't always come from trolls and orcs but also from our own "weakness". Eagles are powerful beings and powerful beings are easier to corrupt for the Ring. The One Ring may not be able to fit an eagle claw (though it used to change size according to his owner's finger) but it can spread doubt in their mind and convince them to keep the ring "safe" in their home, rather than fighting the fell beasts. Even if fell beasts are no match for eagles, a spirit corrupted by the ring won't think rationally. Meanwhile Sauron's army will take over Middle-Earth and the ring will "leave" the eagles the same way it left Gollum. Then it will go from bearer to bearer until it finds his way to Sauron's finger.

      I love the idea of an eagle becoming corrupted by sauron and hoarding the ring on the top of a mountain like a magpie. I guess they maybe could wear it too given that in the Hobbit it's said that Gwahir was given a crown by the dwarves of erebor.

      Tolkien didn’t want to use the eagles as he considers them as a dangerous plot devices and kept them at Deus ex Machina when the narrative demands it.
      There was original 1958 script that had heroes using the Eagles early which Tolkien hated it.

    There he stood with his black horse, the Lieutenant of the Tower of Barad-dur, the Mouth of Sauron, savoring the peppermint lollipop that was the token of the favour of the Dark Lord, when lo! horns were sounded, orc soldiers were mustered at the cry, "Eagle alert! Eagle alert!." In the madness that ensued, he was toppled over by the scampering orcs, his lollipop lay at his side cloven in half. "Somebody will pay for this, the full price." He gnashed his teeth.

    Gandalf was planning to travel with eagles: when he escaped orthanc, he went to the eagles and made agreement that they will carry him, frodo and sam. He kept it secret, because surprise would be the best advantage. Suddendly the party was 9 persons, but gandalf thought there could be plenty of eagles. Eagles live in east from misty mountains. Gandalf planned the way over the mountains, but saruman ruined it... they had to take through moria. There would be so many orcs, that could report to saruman or sauron, so Gandalf's plan was in danger. When gandalf is holding on from the edge of khazar dum, he yells, hoping that at least one of the remaining companion would understand "fly you fools!"

    People seem to forget that even though Sauron possessed no physical form he still had some of his powers. If he ever caught of glimpse of the Great Eagles flying there, which I'm sure he would, then the Fellowship would be done. This video represents it very well with the frying thing, even if humorously. The whole point was to SNEAK the One Ring into Mordor, because even then The White Council was AFRAID of Sauron, rightfully so (every single person throughout Middle Earth's history who underestimated Morgoth's greatest servant suffered for it)
    The only reason he couldn't do anything to stop Frodo in Return of the King was because Sauron thought Aragorn had the One Ring, and everything that followed happened extremely fast: Frodo puts One Ring>Sauron notices it>Gollum bites his finger off>The Nazgul move to intercept>Frodo fights for the One Ring> Gollum falls.

    This is the canon reason why they couldn't just take the Eagles to Mount Doom. The Eagles wouldn't fly over Mordor while Sauron lived, because the orcs would shoot them down and the Fellbeasts would tear them apart and even if they survived that, the Eye would cast terrible curses at them.

    For those of you who think the Eagles would be the best way.
    1. The eagles are Manwë's acting force in Middle Earth after the Valar realized that their direct influence only ended in tradgedy. Gandalf wanted to return to Valinor, and after the Ring had been destroyed, he refused to help the Hobbits with chasing out the occupying forces in the Shire. He didn't want them to rely on him when he was gone. Maybe the same went for the Eagles. They only intervened when absolutely necessary. To save Gandalf, stop the Orcs in the Battle of the Five Armies, save Gandalf again and then once more before finally aiding in the battle of the black gates.
    2. The Eagles would most likely be exhausted by the time they reached Mordor, and even if they rested, the Fel Beasts would be waiting for them (with Sauron's Eye easily spotting them), and they could not fight with Frodo and Gandalf on their backs. And even if they managed to get past the beasts, they would have to land to get to the opening of Mt. Doom, because, you know, relying on Frodo dropping it at the exact time needed from hundreds of meters above is fucking stupid.
    3. The most important part. Frodo would not have thrown the Ring. By the time Gandalf told him what he was possessing, Frodo could not even throw it into a hearthfire. He had put it in his pocket before trying to throw it and realizing it no longer was in his hand. Without Smeagol taking the Ring so Frodo could come to his senses, he would have not have destroyed the Ring.

    People are always going on about why they didn't fly the eagles to Mordor, obviously never reading the books. Well there you have it! >:3
