Yes. Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings books explicitely say that if Smaug was alive, he would have surely join with Sauron.
Sauron allied with Smaug and intended to use the dragon's powers against the people of Middle-earth. But before that could happen, Smaug was slain by Bard the Bowman.
Sauron was immune to Smaug's fire as Sauron has control over fire and had adapted to it. His Magic was too much for Smaug to battle and due to Sauron being a brilliant stratagist, and how powerful his Army and Realm is, it was very likely that Sauron would bring a Black Arrow if he was to face Smaug.
He was only worried about finding the Ring, and he already had plenty of servants to do that for him. So, in short, the power that Sauron would have gained by recruiting the Balrog wasn't worth his time.
Smaug's dragon-fine would not have been hot enough to destroy the One Ring. The malevolence that Sauron put inside of the Ring could only be destroyed in the Cracks of Doom, so Frodo was compelled to make the journey to Mordor.
Although both the Balrog and Smaug are creatures of fire, and Gandalf is able to match them thanks to the power of his fire ring, defeating the Balrog takes far more spiritual prowess, which is why Gandalf is able to essentially 'level up' and comes back as Gandalf the White, whereas defeating such an immense physical ...
Smaug is portrayed as being arrogant, greedy and a loyal servant of Sauron, having an unquenchable desire for gold, and not caring who gets in his or the Dark Lord's way for more. He appears to possess a rather sardonic sense of humor similar to his lord, mocking Bilbo darkly while they are talking.
Ring-maker
Sauron, in disguise, deceived Celebrimbor and the smiths of Eregion into making Rings of Power, and then secretly made the One Ring to gain control over all the others, and so dominate Middle-earth.
Answer and Explanation: Yes, Sauron knew about the balrog in Moria, as did Saruman, Sauron's lieutenant. However, Sauron did not attempt to recruit the Balrog to his side. The Balrog is a supernatural being who is on a similar level with Sauron.
No, Balrogs do not serve Sauron. Similar to Sauron, Balrogs are Maiar, powerful spiritual beings second only to the Valar themselves. They were corrupted by Melkor's evil before the first age and were made into Valaraukar (Demons of Power). They very strength and wills were bound to Melkor.
So, one glimpse into Smaug's eyes and the Balrog falls under the spell. Even if it's just for a second—a moment of hesitation or distraction, it'd be enough. Smaug would snatch up Durin's Bane and gobble him up with his sword-sharp teeth (and we know swords can kill Balrogs).
First of all, Godzilla is much larger and heavier with a proven record of being tough as hell. Second, Godzilla has experience fighting other monsters while Smaug has been defeated twice by mortals and likely has never fought another monster.
Smaug is a hell of a lot bigger than Drogon, and significantly more intelligent. He takes the vast majority. Smaug would waste all three of Dany's dragons at the same time. He exists on a totally different scale of size, strength and power on top of being intelligent.
He decides to go back down to Smaug and see if he can find his weak spot. Bilbo is invisible because he is wearing his ring, but Smaug can smell him. They talk about the treasure-trove and the dwarves' intent to reclaim it.
In the conversation between Smaug and Bilbo, Bilbo calls him "Smaug the Tremendous", "Smaug the Chiefest and Greatest of Calamities", "Smaug the Mighty", "Smaug the Unassessably Wealthy", "Lord Smaug the Impenetrable" and "Your Magnificence", and later Bilbo refers to him as "Smaug the Terrible" and "Smaug the Dreadful ...
Tolkien stated in his Letters that although he did not think "Absolute Evil" could exist as it would be "Zero", "in my story Sauron represents as near an approach to the wholly evil will as is possible." He explained that, like "all tyrants", Sauron had started out with good intentions but was corrupted by power, and ...
In January of 3019, the Fellowship of the Ring travelled through Moria on the way to Mount Doom. There they encountered Durin's Bane at the Bridge of Khazad-dûm. The Elf Legolas instantly recognised the Balrog despite having never seen one before.
In the end Tolkien stated that there were probably "at most" seven Balrogs: In the margin my father wrote: 'There should not be supposed more than say 3 or at most 7 ever existed. '
In The Silmarillion, Tolkien tells us about this brief period, in which Sauron was regretful of his servitude precisely for knowing the fate of Morgoth and wanting to avoid it for himself. He served Eönwë, a herald of Manwë, the chief of the Valar, but eventually refused the call to Valinor to be judged and punished.
It is therefore unlikely that Galadriel would have been able to save him or turn him towards the light if she had agreed to rule beside him. She even tells him this herself when she whispers: “No penance could erase the evil you have done.”
Sauron Tries to Seduce Galadriel to the Dark Side
They discuss his dagger and Finrod informs her that his task was to ensure peace, a task that Sauron also sought to complete.
She already feels an outcast after Gil-galad tried to send her back to the Undying Lands, and she fears that if she reveals what she has done, it will be the final nail in the coffin. Instead, when Elrond pulls her from the river Glanduin, and she races back inside to Celebrimbor's forge, she chooses to stay silent.
Sauron feared Elves the most (hence his machinations to corrupt and control them) but he hated Men the most, not least because of the Numenoreans, who foiled him on a few occasions.
Sauron feared her
The author said that she was the “last remaining of the Great among the High Elves” in the Third Age, and consequently was the one person Sauron must have feared most among all his enemies in the War of the Ring.
In revenge for the theft of the Arkenstone, he destroys the town of Lake-town (Esgaroth). The complete destruction of the town and the displacement of men, women, and children is depicted as characteristic of Smaug's irrationality and evil.
