I was kinda dissapointed with the way that they changed Arwen in the movies. In the books, she was simply the daughter of Elrond, and lover of Aragorn (not to mention Queen of Gondor!). But in the movies, she was some "Warrior Princess" that rescues Frodo, stands up to the Nazgul, and saves the Day!
Also, the Lothlorien Elves seemed VERY depressed when the fellowship arrived. And Galadriel seemed scarier in the movies.
Not to mention, the Kingdom of Rohan, as good as it was, seemed like a very insignificant Kingdom in the Movies. that's all for now!
