I know for sure that they showed Aragorn wasn't wearing the Evenstar for sure, as me and my mates checked every scene after for a glimpse of it.

To me it doesn't make sense. Firstly it should've been given to Frodo. Anyhoo, it appears to be used through the film as a sign of Arwens 'immortality', so the breaking should signify her choice of staying with Aragorn. However Elrond says: "The Evenstar grows dim" (sorry not sure where/when); which implies that it represents her health as she is becoming ill at this time. Unless of course he was just calling her Evenstar. It is also used to show the future of their relationship, but then the breaking really doesn't make sense. Anyway, it's all too confusing and I don't understand why P-j thought it necessary to add.

It makes no sense what so ever, and I think the only way to find out what it's all about would be to ask the man himself.

Edit: What if it signifies Aragorns loss of hope? Or maybe his loss of confidance in himself and his ability to lead, or win the battles ahead of him?
