Well... (if you're willing to ignore the uncanonicity)

As long as I count as one.

For a scene like that, I'm willing to forgive PJ & co one or two of their minor blunders. Is that from the Extended Edition? Quite nice... if only we could have seen more of the like.

(On second thought, however - Wood Elves? Wood Elves??? Hrrrgnnn...

OK, I'm done foaming at the mouth. But seriously - what would have been the problem with having Frodo say 'High Elves'? Same word length, same number of syllables, wouldn't have taken any precious screentime from Aragorn snogging with his horse. Except that it would have been correct. I guess that had to be avoided at all cost.)

There, there *passes a virtual cup of tea*

And yes, it is from the FotR EE (back when the Extended Editions were all, "Here, book fans, have something closer to canon" instead of "I didn't have time for this in the theatrical version!"). The song (which I love) is also available on the complete soundtracks, along with the "Frodo does the chicken dance" track.
