I know he’s doing a bit, but having Arwen in that scene makes the story better: we get who she is, her power, and who she is to Aragorn almost immediately. Glorfindel is important, but not to the current plot.
The REAL trick is that they tried again at Helm’s Deep, recognized the error, and fixed it.
You know what, fuck it. Figure skating is now my favorite sport. Unless there’s another one that will let a competitor dress up in a silly costume and do all these silly jumps and wiggles and fall on purpose, IN THE OLYMPICS, there’s no contest
As a former figure skater I feel obliged to point out how technically difficult that little Chaplin patter would be. See the kind of speed he’s getting up to and then immediately moving into that “walk” - sometimes without even a brake manoeuvre. The momentum you build up when moving at speed has to get released somewhere so stopping like that is usually an easy way to topple over (not on purpose). In the true spirit of Chaplin he is making very hard and potentially dangerous things look easy.
For anyone who might’ve been searching for who the skater is, @jay42 found out ! The athlete is Petr Barna, from the 1992 Winter Olympics
