My fan theory is that the ring hates itself and has a death wish and commits suicide

I think this is the only way the LOTR movies make sense, note this is a movie theory I don't give any shits about the books so book nerds frick off with whatever part of the book contradicts this.

But think about this the ring is supposedly so powerful and seductive yet at every turn it falls from the hands of more powerful to someone less powerful until it finally gets destroyed. It starts out in Sauron's hands who it clearly hates so Isildur JUST HAPPENS to get off one lucky shot that severs the ring from Sauron. Now Isildur has it and Elrond's there but instead of tempting its way into the hands of the even more powerful elf it stays with Isildur. Then Isildur loses it and it manages to get itself into the hands of fricking Gollum. Then it chills out for several hundred years doing nothing until it gets sick of Gollum and works its way into the hands of Bilbo. Then instead of getting taken with Bilbo to the elven lands where it could do some damage it stays with Frodo. And at the same time the IRRESISTIBLE RING doesn't tempt Gandalf into putting it on and instead stays with Frodo. Then they come up with the quest to take it to Mount Doom and again everyone including the queen of the elves resists putting it on and Frodo keeps it. Finally Frodo gets to Mount Doom and the ring can't make them throw it in because it's a drug so it makes them fight over it like r-slurs until it falls in. The ring suicides and gives Sauron the finger as it dies and gets release from its horrible stupid existence. The end.
