I voted Gollum! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY Gollum! Without him, none of the other things would have happened. And even if someone did find the ring eventually without him, Frodo and Sam wouldn't be able to do it without his help/occasional attempts at homicide.

I wouldn't say Gollum's a hero, just a villain who accidentally contributed to the heroes' success.
If Gollum hadn't found it, Saruman would almost certainly have found it centuries before the LOTR events, searching the area around Gladden Fields.

Gollum is the main character everyone hates, but without him, the story wouldn't even work. . .like Voldemort!!!

I wouldn't say the series wouldn't work out without Gollum but it'd certainly be lessened.

How so, Jacques? I think it's either totally with Gollum or totally without him.

He's an interesting character and definitely moves the plot alone but J.R.R. Tolkien was a genius, he could've worked out his series even without such a character.

Yes...with or without Gollum, Frodo and Sam could figure a way into mordor...maybe. Or Tolkien could've thought up a different guide 0_o

Probably. It's interesting to speculate on the various what ifs.
