I think of Rivendell more as a manor house than a city. It's a place for Elrond to entertain royal or otherwise esteemed guests.
I'm not saying that's what it necessarily is in the books or any other media, but that's just how I think of it.
Did you know the entire city was basically created with CGI? They didn't build a single thing IRL. All you hear is people sperging about on location shots and practical effects etc., but Hackson cut so many corners its ridiculous.
Olivia Wilde would have looked far more elf like
Tyler's features are too round and her face is too weak looking to really sell being an ethereal being beyond the threshold of man
Since they are in tune with nature to a totally bullshit degree they can probably acquire all the food they need with a minimum of hunting, gathering, and farming. Legolas’s dad the Elvenking of Mirkwood actually got his food and drink from Laketown, although I’m not sure where he had the money to pay for it.
Lembas.
Who farms the wheat?
They import from various Dwarf and Hobbit farms. You think an elf would farm? They'd get way too dirty.
What goods do they offer in exchange? What is their tax policy?
Nothing. It's like a Bug's Life grasshopper vs. ant situation.
I dunno magic shit? They probably have a small flat tax on goods to help with administration.
>Dirty, sweaty farmgirl Elf
My fricking dick.
Not happening.
emwama (human slaves selected for docility over 10000 years)
what's lembas
The rolls you get from Texas Roadhouse.
This is true. One a day is all I can possibly eat.
Pingas
Lembas is only kept by and given out by an elvish Queen, i don't think it's something elves eat often and not a part of their daily diet
One bite is enough to fill the stomach of a grown man.

my dumbass thought for a second
>why they're all manlets
>Click on the thread
>not disappointed
That's wrong btw, lembas is just for travel.
They're elves. They have magic bread and magic salads and shit. They take like three bites and they're good.
Lembas.
It's magic they ain't gotta eat shit

American "food" makes me nauseous
>burgers and scrambled eggs?
>AHHHHHHH I'M GOING INSANEEEEE
And much like the magic in Middle Earth, these too have passed as all things shall.
Woah they really nailed the themes of lotr with this one.
nice of them to provide a hobbit scale balcony with knee high railing
Ass
Fricking hell.
The point of that scene was the confirmation that it was Gollum who threw the bread out to frame him.
Arwen's butthole. They take turns.

They managed to find a literal elf to play Arwen.
God, she was so beautiful.
Olivia Wilde would have looked far more elf like

Yeah, frick off, she’s perfect.
fish, vegetables and fruit i would presume
also wine

Mirkwood elves were selling wood and pelts
