Bilbo decided to throw himself in the middle of them to try to…

small and curious key. Here it is!” Keep it safe!” (Tolkien: Chapter 9-10).These words make us understand that Gandalf had great confidence in Bilbo as he gives him significant responsibility during the entire war that these dwarves have with the goblins. Gandalf is also the main character that brings in Bilbo as the hero by introducing him to the dwarves. “Don’t” be a fool, Bilbo Baggins!” he said to himself, “thinking of dragons and all that outlandish nonsense at your age!” (Tolkien 27).This…

Bilbo went through many trials during his journey. They first cross the Misty Mountains range. There, a bunch of goblins takes them the captive. Fortunately, Gandalf killed the goblins successfully and rescued all of them. Then, as the formula goes on, Bilbo will face his biggest challenge, his crisis--- play the game with Gollum.

It happens every time. The movie based off of the book is mostly always different whether it is ineffective or not. Between The Hobbit and the movie, there are more than just a few differences. Written by J.R.R Tolkien, and directed by Peter Jackson, The Hobbit is a miraculous journey and development of a small Hobbit named Bilbo Baggins. He faces countless life threatening situations in his journey to the fearless dragon, Smaug at the end who holds all of the dwarves’ treasure in his lair.…
