Dwarf Lords in their own right, Balin and Dwalin are close relatives of Thorin. Beyond this, these brothers are two of his most loyal and trusted friends. An old warrior, Balin has lived through hard times and fought many battles, yet he harbors doubts about the wisdom of the Quest to retake the Lonely Mountain. Dwalin has no such forebodings - his belief in Thorin's leadership is unshakeable. A powerful and bruising fighter, with a natural tendency to distrust anyone who is not a Dwarf, particularly anyone who might be an Elf, Dwalin is not someone to cross lightly.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey comes to theaters December 14th, 2012 and stars Cate Blanchett, Saoirse Ronan, Orlando Bloom, Elijah Wood, Martin Freeman, David Tennant, Ian McKellen, Christopher Lee. The film is directed by Peter Jackson.

    It's amazing how they've made these grown men look so short, even when they're not compared to anything else height-wise in their surroundings.

    I'm actually really hyped to see the dwarves get a lot bigger role in these movies. The most we saw of em in LOTR was Gimli and his dead realitives in the tunnels. It'll be nice to see them fight and play a part in the story.

    but on the real...we all just wanna see Evangeline Lilly as an Elf. Make it happen already!
