Man that was lame in the LOTR books (and the movie too I think)… everyone's all like, hey Gandalf, Frodo went to Cirith Ungol - and he's all ooooh that's too bad and Pippin and everyone's all like huh? why? And Gandalf is all quiet and mysterious. Ungol is named after Ungoliant people, it's a spider cave! Why can we…
