Legolas's role in TTT just seemed bigger because there were a lot more battles in that movie than there were in FotR. [as I see it,]Legolas was in the Fellowship primarily to do sniper duty. Therefore, when there are more bad guys to see/kill, Legolas gets to do more stuff. Or maybe PJ wanted to give Legolas a bunch of scenes before he gets overshadowed by Aragorn in <I>Return of the <B>King</B></I>!!!! The 3rd book <I>is</I> named for Aragorn, so hopefully PJ will pay more attention to him. And the hobbits too. If their stories aren't done right I'll kill something...
