Yes, they didn't make them completely comic relief, they did a fair job with the more serious parts of their character arcs, too. Pippin is awesome :)
Well, they could have had them in the first movie, in the council or something, so that people would know who they were... I suppose Elrond is still a better known character, but it might have worked.
[Exhausted and getting up early tomorrow, so I'll have to call it a night, I'm afraid :/ we'll have to talk LOTR some other time! :)]
