At least he and fly himself to Mordor to cast himself into the volcano. No need for the eagle debate
There was never any need for the eagle debate. In the books, the idea of the eagles is explicitly rejected by Gandalf because it would have been too obvious and too risky. Sauron would surely see them riding the eagles, and the eagles could have been corrupted by the ring's power.
I suppose you tell little kids that Sauron isn't real either
