Gneh. Ditto that. Good point about "just out of acting school" Orli, too.

Another line which is incredibly out of place, but I like as it's a little Morecambe & Wise, is that delivered by Legolas to Gimli on the walls of Helm's Deep:

"Shall I describe it to you or do you want me to find you a box?"

I love how Mr. Bloom has the same accent as a soldier, an Elf, and a pirate.

Gothmog: "The age of Men is over, the Time of the orc has come."
Funny how a guy mentioned in one sentence gets more screen time in ROTK then the Witch-King himself.

And it made it even cheezier coming from him, who knows that he even is an orc? I'm guessing it should've gone more like, "The age of Men is over, the Time of the orc & lumpy-faced pink things has come."

I love Orlando Bloom to death and I think that he has potential to be a really good actor (see Ned Kelly), but his lines in LOTR are pathetic at times. I agree with all of the things mentioned above, but the cheesiest thing that he says is in LOTR:TTT when he yells at Aragorn at Helm's deep about how they're all going to die.
Quote:
Boe a hűn: neled herain dan caer menig!
and
Quote:
Aragorn, men i ndagor. Hýn ú-... ortheri. Natha daged aen!
It's not that these lines are particularly bad, it's the way he prounounces them.

boy a hoon etc. cracks me up every time I see it.

Yes, I always wondered why Aragorn and Legolas would just switch to an Elven language once in a while, here and there, for a couple lines, didn't really make sense. I think they were really insulting Gimli .
