I just don't understand.

Here's a question for all of you.

Why is it that Legolas, from the movie, gets made fun of on account of his good looks, his way of walking, and fighting, and anything else? I could see people making fun of Frodo or Gimli, both of who's characters they managed to butcher pretty well, but why Legolas?

I'm wondering because I have seen soooo many jokes about his hair and him walking like a girl, or being like a ballerina that it's ridiculous. Not to mention the fact that I don't get it. I'm not a Legolas lover, I'm not a fan of Orlando Bloom - I'm just wondering why - when there's nothing really wrong with him in the movie? (I actually think he was done rather well....)

Anyhow, there's my querry.
