I actually really LIKED the Bilbo transformation, really helped bring home the shock of the moment. However, I did NOT care for Galadriels, for the reasons that have already been stated. <P>As for the Balrog, you didn't see him do much, because he and Gandalf were not having a PHYSICAL fight, there fight was beyond even the means of mortal men to really see. That's the way I always felt the book conveyed it to. Job well done there.
