It's called "The Tolkien Edit" and it improves the movie (it's all one 4 hour movie) tremendously. I totally forgot that elf chick even existed until there was one scene where they couldn't avoid showing her.
It's like "The Phantom Edit" where someone went through and improved The Phantom Menace. Jar-Jar gets about two lines before being reduced to a character that stands around in the background for seemingly no reason.
There are more edits , probably a nice hobby for aspiring directors. The "Tolkien edit" is probably the most famous but was apparently made with great haste.
You could try some of the Hobbit recuts, to cleanse your mind
