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.

Maybe now we can get a definitive answer to this question: Was Arwen at Helm's Deep?

Here's a couple more if you have a minute.

Is Arwen relegated to flashback/forwards only? Does she steal another character's place in this movie (i.e. Glorfindel)?
