- The cave where it all occurred!
- The cave has a powerful, ominous vibe to it and the writers tried to take advantage of that!
For the cinematography they wanted everything to feel like "moonlight blue." They shifted colors from "blue" to "orange" for an effect that brought the scene to life, showing audiences how they brought everything together!
The Balrog & A Sacrifice
These filmmakers worked hard to show just what "King Durin" (played by Peter Mullan) had been through in this episode. The amazing part about this moment, and why many are touched is the way it showed this ruler really did care about his people! They gave his sacrifice meaning!
The creators talked in the "Deadline" interview about this special, heroic scene and how they were so proud of the show. The episode came at a price!

- For "The Lord of the Rings" fans, the battle in the "Mines of Moria" with "Gandalf" and this awesome "Balrog." will come to mind.
What happens next? It appears there is something much, much more ancient about this amazing creature that will have a greater presence. If "The Rings of Power" takes its cue from those original stories the creators had an incredible idea for season 3 and to make things worse, this was created after "Durin III" was searching too deep and too greedily for a special ore in the cave!
