For those who have seen TTT could you please share any info on the Arwen/Aragorn scenes? I have to be honest, and say that Arwen is my least favorite character in the movies so far, and someone a while back said that she "helps" Aragorn face down the Dark Lord when he sees Aragorn in the Seeing Stone. (Yuk) Was all that true? I'm also wondering if there are a bunch of "empty" love scenes between the two of them.......zzzzzzzzzzz. You know what I mean. Just putting them together for show instead of content. Although I AM impressed by what I've read of the clip showing Arwen later on having to deal with her decision on mortality. Any comments?
I'm planning on seeing TTT's on Friday, and I don't mind any spoilers, lol.

Wow! There sure are a lot of new visitors the last few days. I hope you guys decide to hang around and help us pass the time until RoTK opens up. ;^)

I didn't see Sauron seeing Aragorn in the Seeing Stone. Maybe that's in RoTK??? There's a couple of those love scenes. Not long like that extended thing on the bridge or whatever in FoTR. I didn't like that. I thought these were less irksome. Interestingly, for over 30 years Arwen has been one of my favorite characters in the book. With that history I guess I've let it slide that I was disappointed in her characterization. However, I was pleased that they included the small part in the film about Elrond's confrontation with her concerning her immortality and then foreshadowed the future of her dealing with it.

Don't know how much that helps.... or if its much of a spoiler, but I thought she was better in this one than the last one. Although it still could have used a little less syrup.

The scenes with Arwen were right and revolved around her decision to sail to the Grey Havens or stay. She is pressured by Elrond and Aragorn to stay. Elrond shows her that Aragorn would be leaving her anyway. I didn't mind the scenes. In fact... they kept the elves in the movie.

I don't think TTT will change your own feeling about Arwen. If you liked or didn't like her in FoTR, this will not change your mind. I need to see it again, but I think there was one scene too many dealing with Arwen and Daddy/Arwen and Aragorn. I am not sure which scene is the one that should have gone yet, because I really liked some of it. -But- it will NOT be the scene where she foresees Aragorn's death as an old man. That was wonderful.
