I saw this a while ago, and I've spent the whole time since then explaining hopelessly why it WOULDN'T have worked.

-> By the time Frodo made it to Rivendell, there was no hope of reaching the eagles in time to make any kind of plans with them.
-> The entire purpose of the Fellowship was to remain hidden from view of the most powerful Evil in the world. Bringing 3-5 gigantic eagles across Middle-earth bearing The One Ring would have made it, oh, about 30 feet without Sauron noticing and sending the Nazgul out immediately on fell beasts. The eagles wouldn't have made it all the way to Mount Doom, the Ring would have fallen/been lost again and nothing would have resolved.
-> That quick of an approach to Mount Doom would have accelerated the corruption of whoever bore the Ring. They'd have gone nuts and claimed the Ring.

There are some more points I could make. I realize you weren't asking for a harsh rebuttal; it's just that I've been waiting a long time to make my case before other LotR-savvy individuals. Yes, I'm a hopeless geek here.

good lord man it was a funny cartoon. Get a sense of humor and don't try and find sense in everything you see :up:. Had it made great and flawless sense it wouldn't be funny.

Oh no no no. I think it's hilarious too (just like all the other "How it should have ended" videos). I'm just saying that I've had to deal with my non-so-into-LotR friends saying stuff like "That makes perfect sense! Oh man it ruins the whole book!" that I couldn't help but 'vent' a little here.

I've got a sense of humor, buster. Don't make me challenge you to a Humor Off.

I read some other reasons somewhere...
1. Sauron can influence the weather around mordor....
2. have to get over some real high mountains
3. you can't just drop it in the top, have to go in a specific chamber, which sauron could stuff full of trolls/orcs/whatev other baddies
