Glorfindel

Even if you chose for us an elf-lord, such as Glorfindel, he could not storm the Dark Tower, nor open the road to the Fire by the power that is in him. '

Finally, I like Frodo being on the horse alone because there's that moment of hesitance and then Glorfindel speaking to Asfaloth, as well as the moment once Frodo has crossed when he says "By Elbereth and Lúthien the fair!" and draws his sword that were just really interesting to me.

I accept that for a movie, you kind of had to have a big exciting romance, but for me Glorfindel was such a significant character.

I think the movies combined Glorfindel and the other Rangers and stuck them inside Legolas.

I also think they could have done a really good job cinematographically of the moment where Frodo sees Glorfindel across the river as another wraithlike figure, but stronger - that's the moment in the book for me where the majesty and power of the Elves really becomes evident.

Though you get some of that from Legolas, it's greatly downplayed by taking out Glorfindel as well as any participation by Elrohir and Elladan and the Rangers.
