>The eagles are the same type of immortal, near-divine beings as Gandalf and Sauron
>They didn't just beat Sauron's ass effortlessly as a team because....?

The mythology of Tolkien makes everything so lame. Just the fairy tale logic of The Hobbit where things like magic rings and dragons and werebears exist as a matter of fact stirs the imagination so much more.
>>

You're too dumb. Go read Harry Potter or GoT

they are noble animals

>>214536229
The Maiar are limited on their power on Middle Earth. This reduces the Eagle clans to being big birds, the Wizards down to being conjurers of cheap tricks, and the Elves down to being human cock socks unless Eru says so. This anon is right >>214536315.

They don't have thumbs

>>214536229
>because
Because they're weak as shit just like Gandalf and Sauron

That's why none of them do shit in the movies

eagles were a mistake

>eagles aren't a fucking taxi service

>>
>>214536229
Because the movie would've been 10 minutes long and rich faggot shares in production company stocks wouldn't go up.

Its almost like god is manipulating the whole situation and could end it and any point he likes. But is trying to make a point to mortals.
>>
>>214536229
No they aren't immortal like maiar. They are servants of maiar.

Gwaihir almost died from a single poisoned arrow before Gandalf saved him. They are very useful, but not invincible.

Also side note, carrying the ring to Mount Doom gives the strategy away.

Quit sucking your own dick nigga.

Why not just take the ring to Valinor, I'm sure the Valar there can destroy it easily.
>>
>>214536229
Because its not their problem, its the problem of moral men.
>>
>>214536229
They're more powerful, Thorondor bitch slapped Morgoth. Even if you consider Third Age eagles to be much weaker, Gwaihir would easily bitch slap Sauron considering he is a massive downgrade from a Vala as well.
>>
>>214538582
>bring the most corruptible thing ever to a land where it can corrupt on the undying forever and ever and ever to the point where the Valar will be forced to end the universe earlier than planned and start over
It's the exact reason Morgoth is banished, it's more effort than it's worth
>>
>>214538582
not really,the ring has the definitive magic on it.
it can be destroyed only where it was forged.
they hit you in the head constantly about this fact in the movies and books.
And the supreme god isnt going to destroy it,just like the christian god doesnt appear into our world to do magic tricks and solve all our problems at once.
>>
>>214536315
??? it's the same world
>>
>>214540065
>God doesn't just solve all our problems at once
yeah, it's s convenient copout for Christcucks to hand wave all the things that could easily be fixed by omnipotence. The worst decision the early church did was to define God as both omnipotent and omniscient.
>>
>>214536229
God hardcoded the Ainur to cause nuclear explosions when they fight (see Beleriand) "for the lulz" as they say
>>
>>214540065

>Eru doesn't just solve tricks okay he just doesn't
>sinks Numenor
>trips Golum so he falls into lava with the ring
>keeps sending wizards to defeat Sauron
>sends a host of archangels to rampage around defeating all evil in sight

yeah okay buddy, keep using that shit excuse
>>
>>214540311
to be fair it was the bitchy pussy valar that forced eru's hand.
Dude was quiet and chilling on his throne when those whiny fags were going be culturally enriched by numenor.
>>
>>214536229
Eagles are predators. Why didn't they eat the hobbits?
>>
>>214536229
It makes sense if you consider they might be autistic
>>
>>214540192
>Christcucks out of nowhere
Mindbroken.
