Elvish. Hmmm... one of my many 'bugbears' about the movie is the flippant way that characters move in and out of languages, and the inconsistencies in providing subtitles. I realise that multilingual people often use more than one language in a conversation, but in the movies this gets pretty distracting. Why would Arwen and Elrond not talk to each other in Elvish the WHOLE TIME? And why do we get subtitles in some cases (Aragorn/Arwen) but not in others (Gandalf spouting Rohirric at King Theoden)?? It just bugs me...
