I have an interesting idea..What would your thoughts have been if Glorfindel had recieved the following parts?* Saving Frodo from the Ring-Wraiths instead of Arwen * Been present at the Council of Elrond * Replaced Hadlir in Lothlorien * Replaced Hadlir at Helm's DeepI think this would have worked very well, personally. What are your thoughts on this? We couldn't really care about Hadlir's death in the film, because we didn't know much about him, and could barely remember him from the FotR movie alone. Glorfindel would have been much more memorable, imo, because he had saved Frodo from the Ring-Wraiths. This would also help keep the story truer to the books. I doubt losing Hadlir in Lothlorien would have been a dramatic change to the story.[ September 06, 2003: Message edited by: Dynaviir ]
