Heresy! Actually at lot of people didn't really get the point of Legolas, but he was there to represent the race of the Elves. Elves are in fact my favourite race ever, pointy ears, long life, long hair plus dexterity bonus in role playing games. Wasn't it cool how Legolas surfed down the stairs on the shield and not only managed to shoot arrows but to acutally hit? Have you read the books? See, another character who had no real point was Arwen, she isn't that prominent in the books, but somehow no one is ever complaining about Arwen in the movies! I like Legolas, I like Orlando Bloom, I like Elves and I rest my case now!

^^^ I have nothing against Orlando Bloom, the actor.... in fact, I quite like the way he played the role he played in the movie Elizabethtown... That was a really good movie... even if no one else agrees with me!!! I also tired of his character in POTC movies pretty much after the first one too... but I don't think that was entirely his fault... that was more down to the movies themselves!
I also liked the Kingdom Of Heaven movie... but then anything at all with Liam Neeson in it always will have my attention....

And OMG.... WTF was going on with him in the movie Troy.... Just don't get me started on the wimp he was in that one.... Oh I swear I pray each time I watch that movie that the ending will go down differently and that he dies instead of the brave Hector or the noble Achilles... but hey ho... the greek Gods don't listen to Smiley on these occasions....

Enjoy this Calena.... just for you.... [I'd sit down comfy with no breakable things beside you, before you hit the play button if I were you....]

This was on UK TV a while ago.... I laughed out loud then... funny.... truly funny....

BTW.... Johnny Depp is so in Smiley's bad books right now.... seriously, the cheek of him actually beating Jared Padalecki in Scream Awards... I hate him even more then Orlando does here... LMAO!!!!


Erm.... Back on topic.... what else is True Blood about? I am waiting for one of it's fans to come on here so I can find out more about the show... It does look like a show I would watch!!!

That's not entirely true, is it now? The lovely Liam Neeson, whom I like a lot, played my favourite Jedi ever, Qui-Gon Jinn, in Star Wars Episode 1 - The Phantom Menance. You never miss a chance to tell me how bored you are with SW movies and this paritcular one even made you go into labour!

ROFL. That's hilarious. Well, smiley, you have to at least admit that Orlando seems to have a tremendous sense of humour!

What!? Are you kidding? I thought he was super excellent.

Honestly, I don't really think he is the best and most diverse actor, but I think the roles he has chosen are the ones that best fit him, IMO.

I thought he did well in POTC, Troy, and Kingdom of Heaven. Wimpy? Yea, I can see where you can that from, but wasn't that the whole point? He was convincing, wasn't he?

I agree with you Calena he was convincing....but I don´t think that he is a great actor :S but he certanly know´s how to choose is roles on movies =)

About True Blood...to be honest...I started to hear my friends here in PT talk about thist TV show...after twilight whent to the cinemas...peolple here in PT are like "all crazy for twilight"..LOOOloool I realy dont get why...I mean..I read the books...and theyr great but the movie....not that good =)

Only 2 friends already watched true blood before twilight...and they talked about it with me...keep telling me to watch it...but I am not to convinced yet xD

Oh...and other funny thing that I heard...was that "true blood" was a copy of "twilight"...but true blood is also a book right? and it went out first then twilight right?

I dunno..... Orlando Bloom has made far too many movies playing the part of a meek kid like elf in the background.... I dunno if I really get him.... Ok... he's a great actor... but I'd really love to see him to a meaty Killer guy role for once ....
