Fun fact: While many book fans were miffed over Jackson's decision to replace Glorfindel with Arwen, it was one of economics - rendering Glorfindel's massive goddamned balls would have consumed WETA's entire budget.
It made sense story wise as well. While Glorfindel is obviously extremely consequential in Tolkien's extended texts, the movies weren't going to go into all of that. So this dude just would hasn't showed up and then been gone.
This also gave the chance for Arwen to be more than just a love interest, upping the women of note in the entire trilogy to a whopping three.

Probably why Bakshi introduced Legolas at that point, because even in his film Glorfindel's balls would have been out of place.

How do you even adequately portray those massive testes via rotoscope...
