Okay, but why didn’t they send Tom Bombadil dressed up as a UPS driver right into mount doom?

After reading the books I realised they did a lot of characters dirty.
But I also realise a series of walks and nice suppers with various characters wouldn’t be as good of a film.
“My dinner with Tom Bombadil”
deleted by creator
He ain’t leaving that forest he don’t give a fuuuck.
But if memory serves, whatever magic shenanigans he has, only works within his forest.
Elrond suggested it, but Gandalf vetoed it as Mr. Bombadil wouldn’t likely leave his forest, especially not to go to Mordor. And while he might hold onto the ring for safe keeping, Gandalf worried that he would not understand the need and would toss it aside somewhere and forget about it. Making him a unsuitable keeper of the Ring, despite it having no effect on him.
It’s my book, and they’ll walk if I tell them to!

Lol that was completely unexpected
lolll yes. i don’t know though it’s still a valid question. but i have to say, reading the novels, i didn’t really question it. however once i saw the films, i couldn’t help questioning it.
I’ve always read that it was because the eagles were way too important to be a taxi service.
What was stopping Gandalf just opening a portal straight over the lava of Mt. Doom and tossing the ring in?
I blame Elrond. He should’ve drop kicked Isildur’s ass right into the volcano.
Because Aperture Labs didn’t open until the 1950s duh.
How come the dwarves just dig a tunnel under Mordor straight into the lava tubes of Mt Doom?
