I will not stand for any more Frodo slander. People seem to forget that Frodo carried the Ring like 90% of the entire journey while it slowly draining his life away. Most people either succumb or nearly succumb to the Ring's corruption in a short span of time. And Sam was no exception. Don't get me wrong I love Sam but saying he carried Frodo through the whole thing is like saying the one dude who was in charge of presenting the school project did all of the work.

oh I was not referring to the LOTR story, I was referring to Sean Astin carrying Wood through the filming of the movies. Man was basically his butler

Frodo only got carried through like 70% of it of course :)
