I know about Thorin's hatred of Elves (and I've read the book) -- but that little look of disgust when he first heard "made by the Elves" was something I didn't notice in the first two viewings. I thought it was a nice touch -- the way they showed how it was almost instinctive how Thorin reacted to the word 'Elves'. It was quite subtly done too. They could have made him say "I would not have anything to do with Elves!" a few times more (like when he knew Gandalf was leading them to Rivendell), but I loved how they chose to convey it through these brief expressions :)

They're trying to emphasize the Dwarf vs. Elf friction.

There was an earlier thread where a poster got rather upset about reading something in the thread that he didn't know.
