Re: OT - SPOILER - gollum discussion\'
well, i think the ring was looking for a weak, corruptable being that would take it back to sauron when he rose again. instead, it got gollum and even he knew not to take it to sauron. which is probably why it snared bilbo. why it didn't grab a goblin, i don't know.
if Tom really was a i think it starts with 'V', it would quite probable that the power balance between him and the ring was quite disparate - in his favor. remember, he was able to make the ring disapear while on his finger without disapearing himself, which it probably wasn't designed to and implies a great deal of control as someone pointed out.
i do think that any assosiation with it would be a risk for anyone who wasn't pure good.
