It was a living place where large numbers of dwarves worked. Most of us got hooked on to this idea of Moria because it is described as a city with extensive passages and caverns reaching deep and far under the mountains and into the earth. Like a sort of Ali Baba's cave but much wider and taller. When I read the books, I thought of Moria as a labyrinth like structure. I look forward to the scenery in Desolation of Smaug. Want endless? Look at that sea of gold! Even the gates that lead inside looked great IMO. The veins of mithril lining the walls of the earth and endless dwarves hanging down on pulleys and mining it. You almost seem upset that dwarves may have lived in such grandiose halls! Or is it you just pictured it differently? Especially from just "one camera shot." More of an "underground dwarven city" vibe if you ask me, for both Moria and Erebor. Also I did not get a Coruscant vibe at all from it. So who's not to say that should a huge light flare up, they'd be able to see the bottom of it just as they saw the ceiling for the pillars? And of course you could see the walls around you. I think it's a fair assumption that dwarven cities were massive in size and went deep into the ground.Īnd of course the "endless bottom" we saw in AUJ also lead into pitch black darkness. Mountain's are pretty big and go pretty deep.
No, it does not clearly say it's as big as the ocean, but it also doesn't say it's any smaller than my apartment's kitchen with the lights off. I'm like Brego, I interpret that, and other passages, to suggest Moria is beyond massive. I don't think, in any way really, that that quote sets in stone a specific size for Moria.
