[Elladan and Elrohir]

Well, as a book fan, I'm perfectly fine with the warrior aspect of Arwen only showing up in FOTR. As a movie fan, the possibilities are a bit intriguing.

I think this again highlights how difficult it is to adapt this work to film. PJ basically had to expand Arwen's character the way he did in FOTR, but for him to have her fighting in Helm's Deep in TTT (in order to give her more screentime with 'Gorn and round out her fighting character), was "too far" outside the book for Tolkien fans. Including me.

Maybe I should save this for the TTT discussions, but does it strike anyone as awkward to have Arwen and Eowyn both at Helm's Deep? Not only would it be a huge change to the book in the narrative aspect, but it would have far-reaching implications for the Aragorn-Eowyn relationship, which they ended up choosing to keep faithful to the book.
