In interviews did Ian Mckellan (who plays Gandalf) ever talk about what it was like working with a Balrog on set? Did they have personalised trainor for it?

I was totally fooled. I thought for sure it was real and not a dog.

They found a hunk of amber with a mosquito frozen in it. It apparently had fed on a Balrog before it was trapped. Some cross genetic experimentations with some West African frogs, and boom, instant Balrog.

They spent all that time wondering if they could that they never asked themselves if they should.

Someone got the idea to catch Garey Busey on fire.
May have been Gary Busey who suggested that.
