Legolas, but I think Haldir may have been my favorite Elf if we had gotten to know him more. You don't find out a whole lot about him and his backstory.

HAH! Legolas is not!!! a Loreal blond!! hah! We can't know what color hair has he got in the book, the moviemakers just decided to make a blond wig for Legolas. and I like his songs, especially the song of Nimrodel!

But in the books, the only race of elves that you could say were the average brunettes for the Noldor well generally. Blond was a normal colour for the eldar and since the book doesnt say, then it was reasonable to assume he was blonde.
And by the way, I did mean the film version lol.
Namarie!

Yeah, well, but if most elves are (/were) blonds, then there's no reason to call Legolas the only Loreal blond then there must be many others also

I think Maehdroa had red hair but in the movies orlando bloom is more concerned for his nails and his hair than for middle earth. Thta is the only real physical representation of him we ahve and also Tolkien was more about what a person does with their life and not whether they are a kings son or blonde or stuff like that lol....

I think Leggy should've been singing in the movies.. but maybe Orli's not a songbird.. lol I like all of Legolas's songs that are in the book. Wish Tolkien would've composed melodies for some of the songs!

Well, he was a proffesor of English and not a musician as far as I know. And Orli???? is that a pet name? * smirks a little*

For me, definitely Legolas. I just don't have the words to describe how cool I think he is. I'm thinking about making a long hair like him(and all the other elves by the way)but I still don't exactly know all about how to care for it.I hope I'll find help here

The song about nimrodel in lorien was a nice one, i must say. But still, Orli???

Yeah, what about Orli? It's a nickname.. abbreviation for Orlando. And I didn't mean Tolkien should've changed his profession to be a musician.. I said I wish he would've...!
