Visible crew/equipment: After starting their four day journey through the long dark of Moria, a few shots later Gandalf pulls on his hat brim, and just as he walks (with Legolas close behind) to his left (towards the viewer's right), up some stairs, the black electrical cable leading from the staff to under the robe's left sleeve is visible.

Gandalf falls into darkness in Khazad-dum with the Balrog, but the rest of the Fellowship decide to continue on without him. Boromir, who tries to take the Ring from Frodo, dies protecting Merry and Pippin. They are then captured by Uruk-hai, so Legolas, Aragorn and Gimli follow them to try and save them. Frodo and Sam head for Mordor, and Mount Doom, alone.
Trivia: Viggo Mortensen was convinced by his son, Henry, to take over the role of Aragorn.

Answer: The temptation of the Ring is directly proportional to the power and ambition of the bearer. To someone like Gandalf - a mighty wizard who wants to save the world - the temptation would, over time, prove to be too much, and he's realistic enough to understand that about himself. With an ordinary hobbit who only wants a nice meal and some peace and quiet, the Ring has a lot less to work with.
