Yes. This scene, even more than others, made me grit my teeth. It is so wrong. When PJ made these movies he apparently decided that he could do away with the personalities of both Legolas and Gimli. He decided to make Legolas into an action hero/heart throb who, is apparantly unbeatable and almost to the level of a god (mummakil). And Gimli they reduced to the comic relief character (as if a Dwarf were anything to laugh at!).
