Can't help but wanna see this overlaid on a mall map: these hobbits had to get to JC Penny from the Books-A-Million. A harrowing journey of many months.

I knew it. Florida is (mostly) in Mordor! That makes so much sense!

So Bilbo took I-88 but got to the border of New York, said nah I'm good, then went back the way he came.

Frodo & Sam took a wrong turn at the Indiana border and then got lost until they wound up in Florida.

if they really had to go to Florida they would've jumped in after tossing the ring

Worse, Jacksonville.

Wait, I'm dumb, what's the blue line?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The one that says "Bilbo"?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

After checking a few more times I see the blue text “Bilbo” under the blue line, just right from the red one.

I need to sleep, but thank you internet stranger.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

You're welcome!

I was honestly confused and thought I was missing another blue line :D

Says something that frodo and Sam travel to the bowels of mordor, but they draw the line at Mississippi

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Pfft, that’s like 2 days’ drive, tops.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 month ago (1 children)

When you think about it, they basically walked twice as far as that since they’re so small.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

they walked 500 miles and 500 more

Mordor being in Florida checks out.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

Yup. Just outside of Jacksonville. I knew it.

Ah, so not a scene from the books. (I don't think?)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

No, Frodo never rode the eagles in the books.
