(I may get *ARROWED!* for saying this...) I didn't really like Legolas in the movies. Maybe it's his "Captain Obvious" moments, or the drastic change of character, but I wasn't too fond of his portrayal. The image I had was of a slightly sarcastic, smart-alecky elf, joking about bringing the sun down to melt the snow on Caradhras and waving at the two snow-bound men as he jogs off over the snow. MovieLegolas was... a bit flat, really. *shrugs*
*jumps in front of the arrows aimed Saphy's way* I agree with you on that. His portrayal wasn't necessarilly bad, but it was completely different (to me) than book Legolas.
