Darkside has just left Hobbiton.
Tar-Palantir, I completely agree with the 'grand unveiling' idea. I loved the exchange of glances that Tolkien wrote about. Peter Jackson could have still done his little 'love scenes' and Arwen wouldn't be the Little Warrior Princess. And I wouldn't have had to hear that dreadful "If you want him, come and claim him" nonsense. <P>This would also bring Glorfindel back into the flim. I don't quite see how he would be confusing to people. "Elrond sent me" or something like that would establish enough of who he was. And I also don't quite understand why he would have to show up again. Characters can, and do, have minor (albeit in Glorfindel's case, not so minor) roles to play without being in the entire film. I just don't think it would have been so difficult! <P>Sorry if that was a bit wordy. In a nutshell, I prefer Glorfindel to Arwen.
