Aren't the elves from The Hobbit also a different group? It could just be that they are frolicking weirdos compared to Elrond's and Galadriel's elves.

It's literally Elrond in The Hobbit as far as I recall.

I think they're referring to the Wood Elves they encounter on their way through Mirkwood.

Well, Elrond was there in the beginning. Bilbo and the dwarves passed through Rivendel.

The playful, drunk elves of the Hobbit were wood elves; the stuffy ones were high elves

I think PJ made them a bit too up themselves

(Too stuck up, too snooty, too like the ideal British noble)
