Arwen and Aragorn seem a lot maturer and more realistic, too. Also Arwen is someone I really feel for, even if she did rather imperiously scorn her husband's race as "wicked fools" until she learned what mortality was really like.
I suppose Beren and Luthien are more mythical - and more magically long ago than Arwen and Aragorn.
