The Ring of Power (the One Ring) had been in Gollum's possession for about five hundred years, and then it was stolen from him by Bilbo Baggins of the Shire.
In the best of cases, people are resentful of thieves, but the Ring was Gollum's 'precious'. The Ring had turned him away from sunlight and the wilderness, even kill his best friend for it, and as a part of its power made him love it. He was bound to the Ring, which is nigh impossible to give up willingly.
Bilbo Baggins stole this Ring from him -- though Bilbo realized the Ring had been in Gollum's possession, he chose to keep it and escape. While this thievery is understandable, Gollum's hatred for him is also quite natural.
The ring was not stolen, it was found. Bilbo later guessed that it was what Gollum had lost, but he did not take it away from Gollum, But he didn't give it back, either.
Gandalf does not hate Pippin. It does not say he hates him anywhere in the book or the movies. Gandalf gets frustrated with Pippin in the beginning of the story as Pippin causes trouble and does not understand the seriousness of whats going on. by the end of the book Pippin has matured greatly and Gandalf respects him greatly
if Bilbo loses the riddles contest Gollum intended to eat him and take back "his precious" or the ring.
Bilbo feels pitiful about Gollum whereas the goblins and trolls want him dead
Bilbo recognized that Gollum used to be much like him, and that he had the potential to become just like Gollum. He knew the pull the ring had on Gollum.
They have to wash all the dishes at the party.
In the movie, Merry gives Pippin the last of the Longbottom Leaf they salvaged from Isengard. This is contrary to the book because Merry actually gives the last of his to Saruman. In the book, there is no exchange.
They were close to him, and knew that something was afoot, but not knowing what that was, they had Sam spy on him. (In the book) In the movies, they knew because Sam was roped into it without a choice by Gandalf, and Merry and Pipin knew only beause they ran into him, and desired to help when the saw that danger was following him.
Frodo Baggins (hobbit) Samwise Gamgee (hobbit) Peregrin Took (hobbit) Meriadoc Brandybuck (hobbit) Gandalf the Grey (wizard) Aragorn, Son of Arathorn (man) Boromir from Gondor (man) Gimli, Son of Gloin (dwarf) Legolas from the Woodland Realm (elf)
No, Sauron is. Addendum: This is explicitly stated in Rivendell. After Frodo recovers from his shoulder wound, he is greeted as "the Lord of the Ring" by Pippin. Gandalf, who is also present, immediately rebukes Pippin for using that term and states that the only lord of the ring is Sauron. Frodo might be able to resist the power of the ring, but ultimately, he could never master the One Ring.
