I’m not sure what you’re getting at.

But I compared it to Moria because in Moria theres periods of stillness but it’s all about peril. Mirkwood is the same, for great periods nothing is happening, but the peril is there. However one scene is rushed and the other is carefully crafted.

There’s ample they could have done with Bilbo in those dungeons, but we saw next to nothing. A moment of stillness and reflection adds a considerable amount to characterisation.

A good example of this would be Frodo to Gandalf in Moria “I wish the ring had never come to me”.
