They get a little more attention in the books. But the prospect of their potential corruption is something that movie-watchers should be able to realize even without reading the books. The Ring corrupts everyone. The more powerful you are, the more likely you are to be corrupted. And the eagles are quite powerful. Really, the confusion about "Why didn't the eagles fly to Mordor?" arises because people don't think of the eagles as sentient beings. They imagine the eagles to be more like airplanes or cars. Just vehicles that anyone can ride. But that's not the case. --- The owls are not what they seem. <cite>TheOnionKnight posted [p:985616787] in It's still...
