Come on guys look at the screen time she would have had if she didn't take some ones place.In FotR she would have had much less time on screen.Also unless I am mistaken she is one of the main charctors.How else could PJ have gotten that much of her story started with out putting her in there. Basicaly she need to have her story unfold as much as the rest of the charctors.Orther wise people who didn't read the books would be in total confusion. So they added a littel extra Arwen.To help the story line along.It doesn't change the fact that these are the greatest movies of all time.From how they where made to how they come across on the screen.Art is noting unless you have somthing to say.Good thing for PJ Tolkien had so much to say he couldn't even pack it into a 3 hour movie.So if he does things that arn't in the book.You have to understand.
