I was heartbroken when I realized that Haldir died. In the two towers Elves do not go to Helms Deep (the book). Can anyone tell me why this happens???????I love Haldir and Legolas!!!!!!!!

Well. Awhile ago, I remember watching the Extended Editions with commentary/extras and I remember Peter Jackson mentioning that he wanted to show that elves can die, even though they are immortal, they can still succumb to death in battle.

Probably because it fit into the storyline.

That's the magic of making a movie out of the book; you can change pretty much anything you'd like.

Yeah, but that annoys people (like me) besides, why kill a blonde Elf, in fact why kill an Elf at all? I always pick characters who die, ugh!

What does his hair color matter?
I actually like it because it clearly shows that though elves are superior in a lot of ways they aren't impossible to kill. I.e. they're unable to die from old age but not truly immortal. Besides, as far as I know elves don't technically die; not the way humans or other creatures in Middle-Earth dies. So, it doesn't really matter if he does or not.

His hair color does not matter at all FYI, I just like blonde Elves better, (Galadriel, Legolas, Celeborn, Haldir,etc.

It was just a question, since you did say "why kill a blonde Elf" and I was wondering what the hair color mattered. Had it been better if a brunette elf had died?

But elves don't really die, not like we would, so I don't find it that sad. Though it was hilarious when I told Craig Parker about how at the cinema when Haldir died I raised my fist and said "NO" and his reaction was laughing and saying "That is kind of dorky". Score. xD
