Last episode really put up the steadiness of the show. But today it got slow again. I like the slow growing of charcaters til we get familar with all the happenings, but it shouod be steady too. The old stranger man is a bottle of hidden gems. Everytime he suprises you in ways you never think of. Oh, for sauron to born they have to make a sacrifice with that ancient knife. Kinda wild. Maybe the old man has to be the sacrifice. For men, we have to answer the call. We are not our ancestors. The things they did wrong doesnt mean we will too. Only if we hold true to overselves. Politics is always something which ruins ever good thing. Truth will set you free. The hidden agendas wont. The balrog fight should have been little bit longer. Durin is weak. But the elf really grows to his character. Orc lord is another interesting character. It is easy to side with the evil but is it worth it? Everything is about to rip apart and fall. We just have to wait and watch.
