In the book, Elrond sang at Rivendell. Arwen was not in the books save for a brief mention in ROTK. In the books, Aragorn was older than Viggo Mortensen portrayed him. In the book, Frodo got drunk and stood on top a table and sang at The Prancing Pony in Bree. No, I'm afraid the movies were horribly incoherent with the books, and the majority of Peter Jacksons changes to the story were degrading to the plot. It's depraving people who don't read the books and just watch the movies. I am sad and dissatisfied.
