[Quiet Man Cometh]

If it was an original movie the scene still would have bothered me. (It's the river crossing scene the the whole *drama* bit after "let him me spared blah blah blah" I'm talking about).

I can understand expanding Arwen's part, but it's like they couldn't really take the time to establish a proper character. They had from the magical glory elf and horse scene to the end of the river crossing to establish her character and scrunched it in.

She's mysterious! *glowy slo-motion horse scene,* She's adventurous! *fleeing to river,* She's brave! *crossing river defying the Nine,* She's tender and self sacrificing! *spare Frodo! (cry).*

All done! Love story time.
