I am all for the book Legolas. He is a fascinating character, and I really love the friendship between him and Gimli. Plus he's elf, prince, archer, and single. :P But no, I'm not a fan girl. The movie Legolas was really terrible. Okay, he was a useful character, especially when there was need of 'someone' to say something to keep the plot moving, but he really wasn't all that amazing.
I don't blame the actor for that, I don't blame the director, I blame Tolkien. I think in Legolas he created a character with so much personality and background, representing so much, and with so much to give to a story, yet so hard to portray in a few hours of screentime. It's kind of brilliant, in a way, despite the fact that it left some book-Leggy fans a little disappointed.
For me it just reinforces the fact that the books will never be replaced by screen adaptions, no matter how brilliant.

:) Great new opinions... anyways I vote for the first three, Legolas is just a well-rounded character [more in the books] he is a great and loyal friend to the fellowship, a proud prince of the woodland realm, and an strong warrior on the battlefields

i agree with you. i relly like him, he is everything, mysterious, handsome, wise... :duh:
and he really is a good friend..

I didn't vote at all.

Becaaaaaaaaaaaaaaause...

Combine these lines: Hot, warrior, and friend and you've started to scratch the surface of Legolas. You can never really understand him, but you can grow to know him a little bit. Add these things: He's sweet, he's good-natured, he's polite, he's confident, he's loyal...(rambles on and on)

I like him. *dreams about Legolas*

I used to detest the character Legolas when I first got into LotR, but now I really like his character. I voted for 'a great warrior', because he is equally matched in skills as Aragorn, and I think we can all agree that Aragorn is pretty darn good. ;) He is also a good friend, especially to Gimli, but he is very caring of everyone, which is a good quality to have.

I like Legolas more than they another in the fellowship becuse he are an elf, he are a amazing warroir and a prince.

I was disappointed when I saw Orlando in "Kingdom of Heaven" except his voice :P

<3 Legolas <3

hmmm it seems that I am not the only one who couldn't choose between wonderful friend and great warrior. I also think he is both. although is also a bit weird. but I think were all a bit weird. so, its a lovely character. I like him. (hmmm I mostly like all character but okay... :closedeyes: )
and ofcourse, no doubt, he is hot :-D

I think Legolas is many things, but for me, a great warrior and a great friend are at the top of the list (he's also hot, lol).

Great warrior- that's obvious. Give him a bow and arrows and he'll do wonders!

He's also a true and loyal friend. I'd be honored to have such a friend. It's evidenced by his devotion to Aragorn, and how good of friends he becomes with Gimli.

Book- Good warrior, didnt mind him. I preffered Aragorn more.

Film- Hated him with a passion. Smug Eejut. :annoyed:

I've actually found that as I've gotten older I'd have preferred to have Glorfindel go with the fellowship more than Legolas. Dont get me wrong I love Legolas but it's just how I feel about it. But then perhaps things would have been rather different!

For some reason I'm not much of a Legolas fan, unlike a lot of my friends. I think he's a great warrior, nothing more.

In book - he could be but rather not my type. I much preferred other Fellowship members. Of course he IS good warrior and good friend but...well.
In movie - I hated him with whole passion.
