You're out of your mind if you saw that and thought "sparks." Check 3:49, the Balrog is still bleeding out even after Gandalf withdrew his sword for another slash. Then at 3:53 he clearly stabs his sword into the chest of the Balrog. I don't give a shit what Gandalf "said," though actually, he didn't say that. He just said the Balrog was a foe beyond any of their power to defeat. Not that it matters, since his sword clearly cut into it. And Glamdring is a magical sword regardless. And I think Gandalf can destroy the sword with his shield and proceed to cut his head off.At least try to stay consistent. First, you say Gandalf's sword could not wound the Balrog, now, all of the sudden... It can? And no, Gandalf that time dealt it no wound, and it didn't roar in pain, it reeled back after Gandalf parried its blow. He's been fighting it for days. Gandalf can physically fight the Balrog. He's proven this. Stop denying it.
Does it matter if its sparks or magma? I paused it as 3.54 and it looks like sparks to me, but whatever, it doesn't matter. If its 'bleeding' then how come we can see its chest 6 seconds later and nothings there. Uh, yeah he did: 'Swords are no more use here.' 1.14 And this is backed up by what I've pointed out, Gandalf stabbing it and not causing any permament damage.
What? How the hell did you get that from what I said. Gandalfs sword clearly causes it pain, not wounds. And seriously, you think Gandalf parried its blow with what is clearly a two-handed swing hard enough to send it reeling backwards? That isn't how swordfighting works Nemebro. The Balrog doesn't even have a weapon, if you look closely you ccan see it try to punch him. Did he parry its fist? Its fist which is clearly on the ground when Gandalf attacks. Look at 4.44 and you can see that what you're saying makes no goddamn sense.
He fought it off-screen, so you have absolutely no proof that he was fighting it blade-to-blade all that time.

According to the movie he certainly is.
Your delusions are not the movie Nemey.

You're right. It's much better.It let out a grumble in pain and looked shocked that its sword was destroyed.
Because clearly a metal sword is going to react the same way as a magical sword formed out of intangible fire, amright? (hint: no)
Prove it was pain.

Stop being deliberately obtuse. He has shown superhuman attributes. Stop denying them.
I was impressed by his ability to take a punch. He's probably slighty superhuman in that regard. Just not enough to make a difference here.
Although I'll note that:
YouTube video
At 2.38 Gandalf starts bleeding from being telekinetically punched in the face. The blow thats only strong enough to make him pratfall is enough to break his skin. Consistency! Lulz.

Chad isn't human, hes Mexican.
Whats your point with it? You said Aragorn was superhuman, and I said yeah, cuz hes a Numenorean. How does that relate to Gandalf?
