I for one always thought of the Elves as being perfect, even more perfect then they were portrayed in the books.

As for lack of fat humans, most of them had it pretty rough it seems and probably suffered from malnutrition, at least in Minas Tirith under Denethor.
Ummm I have to take exception to that comment. Where does Tolkien say he mistreated his people? Starved them?
