Arwen or Glorfindel???!!!

I think the best way I can express my feelings is with these two words: It works. <P>The movie version of Frodo isn't all too defiant. PJ stated that the main point of FOTR was Frodo's relationship with the ring. So, the screenwriters chose to have Eli play Frodo kinda wussy, which is fine because IT WORKS. I appreciate and LOVE Tolkein's writing, but in the provided screentime, I don't think the audience would quite understand a live-action version of Frodo - he's too complex.<P>In the books, I love Glorfindel. He's a great character and provides depth, wisdom and presence in his book scenes. In the films, I like the Arwen scene. It supports the movie-version of Frodo and at the same time helps build character, credibility and the viwer's respect for the movie-version of Arwen. Even if that has to evoke a few oooh's and ahhh's.
