Yes, I pretty much go along with your thinking on this too, HC. I wonder though whether the scenes with Anduril being reforged and Arwen telling Elrond that the King must have his sword will be done by flashback, ie whether they took place before Arwen left Rivendell.<P>I am not sure that I would like it if it turned out that Arwen had decided to leave for the Grey Havens following the discussion with her father in TTT. The fact that she even considered turning her back on Aragorn would seem to me to be rather a betrayal of him, even if she did change her mind and come back.<P>So, I wonder whether, when we see Arwen leaving Rivendell in TTT, it is after having agreed with Elrond that he will take Anduril to Aragorn, while she takes refuge with her grandmother (presumably because he would not be in Rivendell to protect her).<P>Edit: It's a nice touch, given that it now seems almost certain that Elladan and Elrohir will not be in the film, to have Elrond take their place, although doubtless he will not travel the Paths of the Dead with Aragorn or fight at the Pelennor. I agree that it seems most likely that he will return to Lothorien having deleivered the sword reforged to Aragorn.<p>[ September 26, 2003: Message edited by: The Saucepan Man ]
