It doesn't necessarily make it any less sad, but it's worth noting these events are several decades later. I'm pretty sure Balin made the most of his life before his death in Moria and he must have been getting pretty old given his apparent age at the time of the Hobbit. If I recall correctly he was around 170-180 during the Hobbit, so give or take another 50 years and with their average lifespan around 250, he was likely pretty old. That said, it's also apparent that Balin and the others in Moria have been dead for some time once the Fellowship happens upon them. There may be some details I'm missing but I'd hazard a guess that it wasn't more than 10 or so years for Gimli to have not heard of what had happened.
"They have taken the Bridge and the Second Hall. We have barred the gates, but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes... Drums. Drums in the deep. We cannot get out. A Shadow moves in the dark... We cannot get out... They are coming." Chills.

Had Pippin not accidentally knocked that skull down the well, Gandalf wouldn't have become Gandalf the White in time, because that would've likely greatly helped them in avoiding the goblins and the Balrog altogether. Sooooo.....Pippin just saved the entire Trilogy with that mistake.
Every character, clever, stupid, brave, cowardly, has something to offer to the story, a role to play... “Frodo: 'It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill Gollum when he had the chance.' Gandalf: 'Pity? It's a pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play in it, for good or evil, before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.'
It's funny because he's been around for so long an knows all the hobbit families and the Tooks were the bravest and most illustrious of families, which just highlights his frustrations with Pippin. - side note I don't think Gandalf ever calls him Pippin but always uses his full name when referring to him

@@Glebati111 In the books Ori was a scribe, fluent in Elvish and Dwarvish writing, he and Oin went with Balin to Moria with Ori serving as Chief Journalist for the expedition. Then things went bad, Balin was killed when Orcish reinforcements arrived, Oin died trying to lead an escape through the Western Gate and found the valley beyond flooded with a monster now in residence, and Ori made it to the end, making a last stand against the Orcs in the Library of Mazarbul. Gimli and Gandalf recognized Ori's handwriting on the final pages, he would be holding the book to the last.
Even though this is one of the smaller scale fights we see in the series, the close quartered cornered nature of this fight makes it one of the most anxious for me
At the time of Lord of the Rings Legolas is 2,931 years old. He's not just incredibly experienced, but incredibly humble in that he is willing to defer to the leadership and judgment of Aragorn who is only 87 years old.
How are the odds that you have to cast such a variety of different actors for such iconic characters... and they nailed it for every single of of them. Imo Sir Ian MacKellen, Sean Bean and John Rhys Davies stick out but that's not taking aways anything from the other 6. it's just that their performances throughout the trilogy are 100% and the others maybe at 99.9%. Unmatched in cinematic history.
On the way into moria.....cool wind in my hair. Warm smell of the uruk-hai, rising up through the air. Up ahead in the distance, I saw a glowing red eye, my ring grew heavy and my sight grew dim, I had to stop for the night.
This was one of my favorite levels in the LotR Two Towers game, I'd run this level back just for fun It's also pretty much the only battle where you get to see all nine members of the fellowship fighting together, which is cool
The first time I saw this scene in theaters as a kid, my mind was blown away. The sound effects were unreal (still unmatched even today) and frantic energy of the battle in close quarters was completely felt.
Not only that, but a mythril chain vest that was originally gifted to Bilbo from Thorin.

Saruman wasn’t wholly wrong about Gandalf. He isn’t the most sentimental being when it comes to those who have died. Saruman thinks it’s because he’s a cynic like himself, but Gandalf was aware of the eternal nature of all beings in Eru Iluvatar, so death to him wasn’t the tragedy it was to others. Or, so I imagine.
Todavía recuerdo como si fuera hoy el día que fui al cine a verla, fue algo indescriptible , disfruté muchísimo y lo mejor es que quedaban otras dos, la espera cada año no se me hizo larga , fueron una de esas cosas que te suceden en la vida que te marcan para siempre ❤
@@mellifont96 definitely a bad show. 99.9% of viewers will agree. Like amazon didn’t even care to try. It’s got no plot or crispy dialogue. And is just a bunch of actors playing fantasy dress up with the lotr branding behind them. If you search for clips of the show, there are hardly any. No memorable scenes, not even memes or viral content.
@@Scriptum_1 I tend to agree with you. I can form my own opinion, I don’t need people telling me not to watch something. But this, they were right about
You know one of the reasons why this fight works vs anything in Rings of Crap? The actors all convey the right emotions of the situation. The Hobbits all look terrified. Aragorn, Boromer Gandalf, Gimli, and Legolas, all battle hardened veterans, each display both anxiety and nervousnesses for the incoming fight. They all convey that they could be killed in the next few minutes. Morfydd Clark looks like she goes into every battle, no matter what she’s up against, like she’s about to order a fucking pizza.
Of all things, what I remember most seeing these films in cinema was the intense anticipation as I was walking towards my seat before the Fellowship started
Crazy to think this is the tomb of Balin the cousin once removed of Gimli and also known as the dwarf with the white hair from The Hobbit series! He came to Moria to reclaim it from the orcs but the orcs prevailed this is what Everyone is seeing here.
Remember the visit of the first movie - and this scene - as if it was yesterday.. couldn't believe my eyes🤩🤩🤩 I left the theatre through one door and went instantly back through another
There’s no definitive origin for the orcs. One origin mentions that they did reproduce among themselves. It’s possible they care for each other/their orc families but due to Sauron/Morgoth’s influence and domination of them they despise non-orcs.
The loyalty and love in the look Merry and Pippin give each other before diving on the troll has always been one of my favorite parts of this battle scene.
That troll was sure strong, fierce, savage, and bloodthirsty that he was eager to kill himself a couple of heroes if he could get his hands on them with all those goblins running around. He did hit two goblins by mistake with his club, but I guess he doesn't care in the slightest.
Je n’avais pas remarqué mais la disposition des guerriers est hilarante: les archers sont devant au lieu de derrière, le nain est derrière donc inutile, il aurait pu taper dans les pieds. Et les deux sabres sont en arrière au lieu d’être devant.
That moment of tension when theyre all just holding their breaths, standing stock still, straining against the subsequent silence......... And then the collective silent gasp as the first drum beat tolls in the deep. It's all terrifying. My very specific trigger is auditory cues that signal an approach. The lights were out in one of the streets on my way home, a coyote was scampering around in the dark and was coming in my direction, i could only vaguely make out a shape and hear the paws coming closer so i just bolted. Same feeling i get when watcing this scene

Todavía recuerdo como si fuera hoy el día que fui al cine a verla, fue algo indescriptible , disfruté muchísimo y lo mejor es que quedaban otras dos, la espera cada año no se me hizo larga , fueron una de esas cosas que te suceden en la vida que te marcan para siempre ❤
Mithril. You're full of surprises Mr. Baggins.
Thorin's gift to Bilbo ends up saving Frodo's life....I think Thorin would be smiling on the other side to know that
How do you go from these masterpieces to rings of power……….
Guh-Reed
@@veo16 yep. I havent watched the rings of powers but its hard to fuckup tthe silmarillion and im scared to watch it.
@@mellifont96 definitely a bad show. 99.9% of viewers will agree. Like amazon didn’t even care to try. It’s got no plot or crispy dialogue. And is just a bunch of actors playing fantasy dress up with the lotr branding behind them. If you search for clips of the show, there are hardly any. No memorable scenes, not even memes or viral content.
Honestly I didn't care what fandom said about Rings of Power, I gave it a try but it was crap. Only watched until ep 3
@@Scriptum_1 I tend to agree with you. I can form my own opinion, I don’t need people telling me not to watch something. But this, they were right about
You know one of the reasons why this fight works vs anything in Rings of Crap?
The actors all convey the right emotions of the situation. The Hobbits all look terrified. Aragorn, Boromer Gandalf, Gimli, and Legolas, all battle hardened veterans, each display both anxiety and nervousnesses for the incoming fight. They all convey that they could be killed in the next few minutes.
Morfydd Clark looks like she goes into every battle, no matter what she’s up against, like she’s about to order a fucking pizza.
Also no allmighty women and no black people where they don't belong
It also looks like they're actually trying to kill eachother, instead of performing a nice choreography
Amen. Terrible actress, awful direction, shit fanfiction. that's it. that is the whole show.
Of all things, what I remember most seeing these films in cinema was the intense anticipation as I was walking towards my seat before the Fellowship started
I love how Gandalf casually takes the book from his dead friend Ori and doesn't even bat an eye
Crazy to think this is the tomb of Balin the cousin once removed of Gimli and also known as the dwarf with the white hair from The Hobbit series! He came to Moria to reclaim it from the orcs but the orcs prevailed this is what Everyone is seeing here.
Death can be cruel.
Few can appreciate the depth of the story and imagine it.
Gandalf's sleeve passes behind Sam at 0:15 !!!!!!
Whoooa good eye dude😂🙌🏾
Wow, good eye! It's hard to find an error in these excellent movies
That’s awesome. Flaws in a wonderful spectacular trilogy. Love to see it but LOTR will always be a flawless story in my eyes.
You got eyes like a hawk. But do you have also an ears like a fox like Gimlis?
Oh, Boromir! Sean Bean is magnificent, Boromir, Odysseus, and Ned Stark.
Sharpe is his best role
Remember the visit of the first movie - and this scene - as if it was yesterday.. couldn't believe my eyes🤩🤩🤩 I left the theatre through one door and went instantly back through another
Seeing Moria at its Height in Rings Of Power makes this all the more sad, seeing it so desolate and Ruined....
It actually makes me wanna cry to seeing this masterpiece, and then having to watch the rings of power.
Sam with the Pan, when Heros become Legends
When I first saw this, I could've smacked Pippin for being so careless.😂
Remember these orcs have a wife and kids back home and are just trying to make a living
Oh no
Oh well I guess we will have to genocide them too.
Real
Ahahahaha
Bloody tourists camping out in their home, smoking, making a ruckus, taking souvenirs and moving the furniture around
There’s no definitive origin for the orcs. One origin mentions that they did reproduce among themselves. It’s possible they care for each other/their orc families but due to Sauron/Morgoth’s influence and domination of them they despise non-orcs.
The trilogy is a masterpiece but the mines of moria arc was what really stuck with me for some reason
This Gimli helmet sound 0:56 is better than all TROP 1 n 2
One of the best scenes in the Fellowship of the Ring
Gimli was ready to SPIN THE BLOCK! my KING!!
This movie had cliffhangers at every point!!! Peak Cinema
Seen the trilogy five times and it just gets more amazing each time😊
My youger sister just watched lord of the rings for the first time and she is just as amazed as i was the first time i watched it.
I never noticed before how Boromir comforts Gimli @1:27
He wasn’t a bad dude for the most part. The ring screwed him big time lol
Sigh...if only Galadriel was there. She would have defeated that troll with ease and the Fellowship would have been on their way.
and every goblin, and the Balrog too.
As well as Legolas from hobbit movies...
7:05 Frodo: Aragorn! ARAGORN! 7:06
7:08 Aragorn: FRODO!
INUYASHA!!!! KAGOME!!!!
Ah yes, the superior LotR visual production.
First the falling corpse, after some time the drums and distant cries, that was great!
The loyalty and love in the look Merry and Pippin give each other before diving on the troll has always been one of my favorite parts of this battle scene.
6:18 tv tropes: frying pan of doom
*Before Hobbit Trilogy*
Me: “Sad scene, but whatever.”
*After Hobbit Trilogy*
Me: “Look how they massacred my boys…”
I grew up watching two films harry potter and lord of the rings both was my favorite movies back in 2001 i remember that yeat..
They have a cave troll. Is still one of my favourite all time lines.
5:19 holy shit boromir was yeeted for real and his look right before was somehow hilarious
one of best movie scene i saw in my life!
Agree ! This is when the movie really took off !
3:07 “Dom Dom Dom went the drums”
Boromir's like the witty, cool uncle of the group. Love that guy.
That troll definitely still had enough strength to still get frodo with blunt force
That troll was sure strong, fierce, savage, and bloodthirsty that he was eager to kill himself a couple of heroes if he could get his hands on them with all those goblins running around. He did hit two goblins by mistake with his club, but I guess he doesn't care in the slightest.
The 4 hobbits grew up a lot during the time in Moria.
I can finally feel gimili lost due to the movies knowing the type of dwarf this scene hits hard
Je n’avais pas remarqué mais la disposition des guerriers est hilarante: les archers sont devant au lieu de derrière, le nain est derrière donc inutile, il aurait pu taper dans les pieds. Et les deux sabres sont en arrière au lieu d’être devant.
A timeless masterpiece for the ages. Hope they won’t think of a reboot 20 years from now.
I like that GIMLI doing some support chop axe damage to the Troll. 💪
Aragorn forever chopping heads lmfao
That moment of tension when theyre all just holding their breaths, standing stock still, straining against the subsequent silence......... And then the collective silent gasp as the first drum beat tolls in the deep. It's all terrifying. My very specific trigger is auditory cues that signal an approach. The lights were out in one of the streets on my way home, a coyote was scampering around in the dark and was coming in my direction, i could only vaguely make out a shape and hear the paws coming closer so i just bolted. Same feeling i get when watcing this scene
No matter how dark it gets. Reach for the light.
2:30 Gandalf, in his head: "YOU FOOO000GLE!"
