“Doomed to Die” is an interesting sister episode to season one’s “Udun” The episode is almost entirely about the dread inevitability of a thing you know the outcome of.

The action, for the most part, is fantastic, playing with familiar scenarios in interesting ways.

Doomed to Die’ was smart to play this moment with some agency for the forge master.

It gives the battle unfolding around them the dramatic weight it really needs.

Owain Arthur is the show’s MVP here, as the scene with the two friends reuniting at these darkest times for each other.

The battle itself is largely an empty spectacle.

The final episode of Lord of the Rings is a reminder that things have to get really, really shit before that glimmer of hope sparks through.

Adar stabs Arondir out of nowhere during the melee, he batters down Elrond and takes Nenya from him.

Gil-Galad rallies the remaining elves to face down Adar ’s encroaching second wave.
