Oh come now, Elrond couldn't have given Isildur a shove any more than he could have made Frodo volunteer to be the Ring-bearer. Tolkien never considers the possibility that Sam could have shoved Frodo in, either. It completely goes against the principle of free will, one of Tolkien's most cherished throughout all of his writings.
But then, that's not really a matter of the movies, just a side issue.
I think the whole telepathic communication thing is kinda dumb, and I'm not sure it's really that necessary. But whatever...
