I suppose I'm slightly dissapointed by this, but not much. Though a mega-epic battle would've been better than the chaining bit, Morgoth did enough damage and it had to end. His campaign killed many more great heroes than that of Sauron (Turin technically, Fingolfin, Ecthelion, etc). He had an epic battle with Fingolfin, who he killed eventually, and his various servants caused incredible damage. It had to end somewhere, and it did. Plus, he's gonna come back eventually.
