I have noticed these differences as well, but I think that the differences are unavoidable. Any time you cast someone to be a certain character this actor is going to interpret the character and the way that he/she thinks is best. However, I think that although some of Frodo's more heroic moments are gone from the movies, I still believe that Elijah Wood did a fantastic job as Frodo, for me he became Frodo and as much as I try not to when I read the books and visualize what's happening in my head, I see Elijah's Frodo.
