First up, the Mines of Moria is already an awesome sequence fromLord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. But it’s made even more epic whenImmersion VFXhas all the swords are replaced by lightsabers. In fact, even the arrows shot from bows are given a glowing lightsaber tip. I’m willing to bet almost and battle sequence can be improved with lightsabers.
