What I mean is that after Gandalf "falls in to shadow" the plot requires Aragorn to take the lead .. I don't think that that would have happened if such a powerful elf-lord as Glorfindel had been there. I think the Flight to the Ford shows that Glorfindel would have taken the lead. Also I think different decisions might have been made and maybe an elf lord revealed in his wrath would have changed the events during and following the orc attack. He might not be able to storm the road to the fire but he could probably make an impression on a gang of Uruks....

Anyway, I'm still waiting for a mud wrestling contest in the extended dvd
between Eowyn and XenaArwen (of the FOTR movie) over Aragorn.
Loser gets Faramir as a nice consolation prize.
Psh... I'd lose on purpose. I don't need a king.
