2. “You Shall Not Pass!” (The Fellowship of the Ring)

Gandalf faces the Balrog on the Bridge of Khazad-dûm and stops the creature from pursuing the Fellowship. His stand allows the group to escape but comes at the cost of his life. This moment leaves the Fellowship broken and unsure of their path forward. It is a turning point for the group and shows the sacrifice needed for their mission. Gandalf’s fall sets up his transformation into Gandalf the White and reminds everyone of the dangers they face on this journey.
