A big thing to remember is that not everybody has read LOTR, and nobody will ever make a movie out of the textbook like Silmarillian (which is one of my favorite books ever). They had to do things different and they could of done things much worse. They have only so much time to get the story across and they didn't want to make any confusing references that only people who have read the Silmarillian would get. The movie was made in a way that people who didn't read the book could still enjoy it. There is one huge glaring Elrond mistake I dislike and that is the scene with Galadriel asking Elrond if the elves should help the Humans. Like Galadriel would need to ask permission of Elrond for anything. I posted in another thread that I overheard a person talking about how Elrond was king of the Elves and that just ran all over me, They gave the wrong impression with that scene.</p></blockquote><p></p>
