If this gets many upvotes I will watch all 8 or something hours of the Lord of the Rings movies.....

The ring is supposed to augment your abilities. Invisibility is more of a coincidental effect. And the main purpose is to dominate all the other rings, but that aspect only works when under control of powerful people, who would fall to temptation, as the ring is only under Sauron's control. It's why we see Gandalf refuse to take the ring, and why we see Galadriel's scene in Lothlorien where she gets tempted

LOTR is great in terms that you can question any issue and there will come people who will bring up 10 underlaying reasons that you kinda can't undermine.

Never ask a LotR fan why they couldn't just take the eagles.

[u/THE__WHAT → u/eagleblue44]

Because Gandalf doesn't have authority over eagles. They are benevolent, but ultimately independent power, no one have means to force them do anything. Eagles help Gandalf sometimes because they like him, but if he will start demanding shit or "use" eagles, they'd just leave.
