Who thinks Legolas is H.O.T in the FotR ?

[Legolas_sheila]

Is Legolas (Orli) Hot?

1. 100% (Oh Yeah! He's a hottie!!)
2. 75% (He's kinda cute)
3. 50% (He is OK)
4. 25% (I've seen better)
5. 0% (He is ugly. Harry Potter is cuter...)

[Gamil Zirak]

You should have posted a poll, but since you didn't I vote he is 4. 25% (I've seen better)

[Aeglos_Ohtar]

I think that he is 100% hottie. :D

[Mormegil]

Yet another 'Legolas is so HOT' thread. Will they never end?

[Gamil Zirak]

I'm afraid they will never end unless Legolas's face is mutalated in TTT. I can only hope though.

[Legolas_sheila]

Well in my opinion, Legolas is H.O.T ok?
Don't make me cry, please...!!:(
Legolas isn't that bad, I personaly think that his face is not F***ed up, and maybe in your opinion it is.
Oh and, Legolas is the hottest in the fellowship, the others are not so hot...:D (no offence :o ):D
I WOULD DO AnYtHiNg TO HELP IF LEGOLAS' FACE GOT F***ED UP!!:rolleyes:

[Eomer Dinmention]

Do you know how many members there are, with the name of Legolas in front of it. Legolas Lover, Legolas Sheila, Legolas Lover 33 and all these I love LEgolas.

Do you know how many people claim to be the wife or girlfriend of Legolas.

Gees this is just rediculous

[Lady Legolas]

I can see some peoples annyance about the Legolas threads.Yes I'm a big fan of PJ's Legolas.But I'm a fan of Tolkiens work and books as well.Legolas was always my Favortie character before the movie even came out.

[Legolas_sheila]

I will never speak of it again...
I always thought Tolkien's opinion of Legolas described him as quite attractive. Also, the illustrations show it too, otherwise PJ's Legolas could have been this fat, ugly brunette with no sence or intelligence whatsoever (Not that he ever was or will be).
I am not saying that Orli/Legolas is soo hot just without the wig and the ears, really PJ's Legolas would be nothing. He is cute with the wig and the ears, I will never say that again though ...:o

[Thorin II]

I wouldn't be surprised if half his fans are male. Everyone want's to be able to stick someone with an arrow like that.

ROFL


Thorin the Second.

[Gamil Zirak]

I doubt half of his fans are males, but if they are, they don't post a thread about how hot he is. They post a thread about how they can or wish they can shoot a bow and arrow. It's strickly girls doing this. Besides, do you see any Arwen is so hot threads around here?

[Nenya Evenstar]

Hehe... this thread was very enjoyable to read. ;) I can definitely see why certain people would get annoyed by the non-stop Legolas talk. From a femail point of view, yes Orlando as Legolas is hot. However, I appreciate the books much more than that! I have read the books I don't know how many times and before I saw the special "Quest for the Ring" on TV before the movie came out I had a perfect picture of how I thought Legolas should look. Imagine my surprise when during "Quest for the Ring" the camera shows an elf for a second. My first thought was that has to be Legolas - he's just like I've always pictured him! The next thing I new, there was the same elf - named Legolas! He's the only person in the movie who fits the picture in my mind of the Fellowship. And perfectly. So anyway, for Legolas lovers, yes Orlando Bloom is hot, but Legolas is Legolas. He means much more to me than just another guy who is hot. He's Legolas. He exists. He always has existed and he always will. That's the great thing about books. :)

[Lady Legolas]

Hello Nenya welcome to the forum. Like I said before I've always been a fan of Legolas way before this I love Legolas stuff even started. Tolkiens Legolas always meaned more to me then the Actor Orlando Bloom even got casted as him.You are right Legolas is Legolas and always will be to me. But it's also cool that they picked a handsom guy like Orlando to play him. Not all the Legolas lovers just like the PJ's verson of Legolas , Tolkiens Leoglas might mean something to all the Legolas lovers out there. But I can tell you one thing speaking for myself I'm a Legolas fan all the way.I am also a fan of Orlando Bloom as well.

[Nenya Evenstar]

Hello and thanks Lady Legolas! Yeah, it is great that they had a good-looking guy play Legolas; but however, that's still not why I like him. ;) If I were to see Orlando (with long, blonde hair, of course) anywhere (before or after the movie) I would automatically think, "that's Legolas". He's just how I've always pictured Legolas. Maybe he's other peoples perfect picture too and that's perhaps why so many people adore him. The only problem is that the people who like him so much are mostly all girls...

[Legolas_lover12]

ok, first of all, i love tolkien's legolas a lot more than PJ's legolas. i'm just glad PJ casted a hott guy to play him. orli is just how i think leggo should look.
and if u don't like these threads ppl don't read them.
and about ppl having legolas in their name. gosh if i knew ppl would judge me like this just because i put legolas in my name, i never would have done it. it's like "oh, u have legolas in ur name so u r stupid and u care nothing about LOTR. u just like orlando bloom." when that is not true. ppl never give u a chance ...gosh ...
and everyone who was talking about having legolas's face messed up and us giving a finger to have it fixed. well i am so mad right now that i would give a finger to see ur face get messed up ...ugh ...

[Aerin]

Just to aggrivate some people, I'll put my two cents in. *weg*

I vote 0%. Not only is Legolas seriously ugly, but he was too blonde...*shudders*

And who says Harry Potter isn't cute?! He's an adorable little kid! ;) :D

[Legolas_lover12]

sorry, to u then. when most ppl say things like that they r trying to be mean. apparently you wre not like that. i do not wish ur face messed up anymore. ;) LOL.

[Gamil Zirak]

Ooh, Ooh. That was me!!!! I said something about his face being mutalated. However, I don't remember what it was and I'm too tired to look for it. But, I'll still claim it.

[Nenya Evenstar]

Hmmm... I really feel like I was the culprit in making Legolas_lover12 mad for some reason. I'm sorry if I said anything! I was just trying to explain why I like Legolas more than any other character in the movie and perhaps give some input on why so many girls like him. :D Seems like I ended up making a mess...

As for the The only problem is that the people who like him so much are mostly all girls... that I said, I'm one of those girls too! :p

[Legolas_lover12]

nenya evenstar - no u didn't say anything to make. u r cool. :D:D:D:D

[Lady Legolas]

Nenya and Confusticated I wasn't mad at you two,both of you are cool with me. What got me upset mostly was that the person that made this thread was new to the forum and some poeple just came in and bit her head off about making a Legolas is hot thread. I mean people are able to voice there oppinions here but what happened was a little uncalled for. That is all I have to say about this topic. I'm not mad at anyone.

[Nenya Evenstar]

Ok, we're all cool then. ;)

[Lady Legolas]

yes we are cool!!!;) :)

[Legolas_lover12]

we are all kool!!!! LOL!!!!:D;):D

[Nenya Evenstar]

Great! This is kinda fun. Cool, kool, cool. LoL :D

[ms Greenleaf]

Yes leggo is hot and I would give him100 but it isn't all looks I mean he and aragorn look like there dancing while fighting heck i would not know the diference if there weren't a bunch of bodies

[Legolas_lover12]

LOLOLOLOLOLOL. :D:D:D:D:D now THAT is funny!!!!!

[ms Greenleaf]

Well it is true besides that is how you are supposed to fight I mean Boromir and Gimli kind of hack at things

[Legolas_sheila]

I don't know what you are actually talking about...could you fill me in?:( :confused:

[Legolas_lover12]

well i guess right now we are talking about how "aragorn an legolas look like they're danceing when they're fighting heck!";)

[Melian Le Fay]

Ever heard of the expression "ELven Swordancer"? I read it in a fantasy book, and I'd say: Aragorn really does it! (this guy from the other book was also a ranger) But Legolas? No comment.

[Legolas_lover12]

what exactly do u mean "no comment"???:mad::mad::mad:

[Earendil]

Excuse me in the book adn as said by the actors (orlando) that Legolas's movements were graceful and balletic!!! and as for the pole here i think that Legolas is as hot as heck!!!!!oha dn by the way in the book they say that elevs are very lightfooted but in the movie you wouldn't know that legolas was until the part where they pass through the snowy mountaina dn hes the only one who doesn't sink in the snow!! i thought that was a great adaption!!!

[Legolas_lover12]

i thought is was absolutely hilairious!!! everyone trudging through the snow (which is up at least to their waists, prolly over the hobbits' heads') and then legolas just walking along right on top of it. LOL:D:D

[Earendil]

oh i know but i didn't even notice that until i watched it a second time...actually the second time i was like wow he moves fast when hes wants to...then the third time i was like omg!!!! he doesn't sink in the snow adn i remebered that elves are very light footed i was like awesome!!!! I LOVE LEGOLAS HE IS SOOOOOO HOOOOOT!!!!!

[Melian Le Fay]

Hey, don't be mad at me....:D
I ment he's sooooooooooooooooo great he doesn't need any comments!!!!
OK?
:D

[Melian Le Fay]

I wanna be an Elf when I grow up!!!!!!!!!

[Legolas_lover12]

LOL. we all do ...maybe ...

[ms Greenleaf]

About that I read in a book that if you have 1 pointy ear you are half elvish
two means you are a full elf
Of course i also read that means you were scrued up in birth some how i have one elf ear:p

[Legolas_lover12]

my grandpa had TWO elf ears!!!!! i think he is an elf!!!

[Melian Le Fay]

I think OB's an elf! No man can move that way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:D :D :D :D
They just masked him AFTER the film, so he would look like a man...Hmmm...smart, smart......

[Nenya Evenstar]

LOL! That's a great philosophy! It really makes sense...

[ms Greenleaf]

Hey according to my theory I am half elf, maybe i know him and just cannot remember.. oooooh I am going insane eh:D

[Nenya Evenstar]

LOL! That's not surprising - I'm insane myself. I believe that a good deal of people are insane... I was born with a bent ear - but my mother straightened it out when I was a wee little thing, so I can't claim to have pointy ears anymore. Why'd she have to do that?

[ms Greenleaf]

maybe so you would not know your past cause she was a dwarf thiss would make a great story

[Nenya Evenstar]

Hmmm... I wonder! :D Yeah, we should make an RPG out of this...

[Lady Legolas]

I think you guys should go for it!! :D It does make a good story.

[Nenya Evenstar]

What do you say ms Greenleaf? Should we start an RPG?

[Nenya Evenstar]

Just noticed.... It's Legolas_lover12's birthday today! Happy B-day! Enjoy your day and do something extremely LOTRish on it... Hope you had a great day - it's already 10:30, so you had better have... :D

[Earendil]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! oh guys i wanna be an elf soooooooooo much you don't even know thats why i learned elvish to feel more like an elf!!!hehe!!

[Nenya Evenstar]

Come be in my RPG - you can be my long lost parent or something like that and be an elf all you want.

[Legolas_lover12]

well, i didn't really do anything LOTRish because no one i know likes LOTR. they won't even watch the movie w/ me. but i can be with u guys today (the day after mah B-DAY) and be LOTRish.:D:D:D:D:D

[Nenya Evenstar]

Ok, well, I guess that works too. Did you get any LOTR presents? I know exactly what my X-mas wish list is going to look like... :D

[Legolas_lover12]

LOl. no i got lipgloss, eye shadow, walmart card, JC Penneys card, money, horsie bookends, and chocoalte. LOL

[Nenya Evenstar]

Nice! They all sound like great presents! Here's my present to you:

May you have time to read "The Lord of the Rings" again, and may you enjoy to it's fullest potential! :)

[Legolas_lover12]

THANK YOU!!!
and i will. as soon as i read HoMe an these vampire books I.am.Smeagol is telling me about ...

[Nenya Evenstar]

Vampire books? Hmmm... LOTR sounds better... ;)

[Earendil]

i wish you bestest LOTR wishes adn i hope you had a very wonderful b-day!!! I don't have many friends that like LOTR too...i have seen it with firends in the theartres but they just wanna watch it for Legolas...me too, but i liked the story and i love LOTR and Legolas as well! hehe...oh adn by the by i was just now reading the posts at the beginiing of this thread and i just wante to say that i LOVED Legolas way before the movie came out yeah sure i think that PJ's Legolas is DANG RIGHT HOTTTT!!!!! but i will always loook at him/orlando as Legolas and nothing else. and some legolas fans only liked him after the movie came out but i fell in love with Legolas when i was reading the books!!! i even started to learn elvish after i read the books adn i know it suonds crazy but i sometimes write romantic dialogs with Legolas and me in Sindarin much like in the fellowship witht he romantic scene with Arwen and aragorn...don't laugh at me ok?hehe:p

[Lady Legolas]

I wouldn't laugh at you!:) I loved Legolas from the book way before Orlando was even casted as Legolas. But I also think Orlando did a great job as Legolas in my oppion.

[Nenya Evenstar]

lol - don't worry, most of us (including myself) do things almost equally the same. You should visit the thread in the stuff and bother forum titled "is this sad?" I really think you'd enjoy it!

[Diamond Took]

I'd give him a 75%. Orlando bloom is a good looking guy. :)

[Melian Le Fay]

Sure you think so, you wouldn't put his pic as an avathar!!!!:D :D
(Nobody blames you.........he he he)

[Nenya Evenstar]

lol is all I can say! This thread really makes me laugh! :D :D I'm going to have to share your theory with some other people...

Yeah, millena, come join us! I've got to get it started and stuff first, and right now I'm really bogged down with bunches and bunches of posts to answer, so as soon as that's all done I'll start thinking about the RP. What fun... BTW, you're the only person who has said that they really want to be in my RPG yet... :( Anyone is welcome!

[ms Greenleaf]

Yah we should make an rpg something like that aah by the way what is that and how do you make something like that? I am sorry i am clueless

[Nenya Evenstar]

lol - I see, that's why you didn't answer... :) An RPG is a Role Playing Game. You get to be a character and you basically play along with other people (who are the other characters) and you get to be in a different world and make up a story. It's a LOT of fun! Check out the Role Playing forum and you'll get a better grasp of what it's like.

[Legolas_lover12]

well just tell me when u sa=tart an RPG and where it is and i will come join it.:D:D:D:D

[Nenya Evenstar]

Ok, I will - it should be soon. I need some major help getting started as I've never started an RPG before...

[kazren]

Yes, I'd have to give the guy a 100% - the way he moves in the films, and the overall look. Maybe I'm predjudice because I loved Legolas long before Orlando was even born!

You know, if you like photos of him, there are several places. There's the quintessentialwebsite that has the books by chapter with photos (and Fran is very good at art-sy-ing out print that might otherwise ruin a photo) Quintessential (http://www.quintessentialwebsites.com/lordoftherings/home/index.htm)

then there's my humble work in progress - this is directly to Legolas Page 1 (http://www.spaceports.com/~albion/legolas1.html)

and not to be forgotten: Council of Elrond New Pictures Beware of Spoilers (http://www.council-of-elrond.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=117&perpage=30&pagenumber=1)

I can't get enough of this stuff!
Here's a nice one from the Quintessential site:

[Lady Legolas]

Kazren your work is going good in my opinion,keep up the good work.

[Earendil]

OOOOOO so thats what it means hehe...anyways when you start i definatley wanna join hehe! it suonds so funa dn we cold get alot of laughs!!! anyways yeah Kazren your work is going better than alot of sites ive seen...I LOVE THAT pick of legolas on that horse he looks so couragous!!! like how i imagine LEgolas!!hehe:p

[Nenya Evenstar]

Uhh... could I have another head person of this RP? Just someone who has done an RP and knows what they are supposed to do... I could figure it out, but I'd rather have someone else helping me. Anyone?

[kazren]

Well,NE, I was heavily into a RP-er, but I'm kind of a Tolkien purist, and when people starting having little Anime characters flittering about, it really was ridiculos. And then there's the teen boys who wanted to play the bad guys and hack and slash everything. You will need to set firm ground rules and monitor posts that really trash the storyline people are trying to write.

[Nenya Evenstar]

Thanks kazren! I'll keep that in mind! But did you see the start of my story line? I'll make sure that this one goes into the Lighthearted section. Uhh... and elf who was kidnapped and whose new mother (a human most likely, but it was a dwarf) bent her ears so that she didn't know she was an elf? Pretty pathetic - it was just a spur of the moment thing. Probably something that people will have more goof-off time that not. Maybe we should change the story line! :D

[kazren]

Thanks to Elf Lady I've found another new Legolas photo - it may be to promote Decipher, I'm not sure - it's on this page:Legolas page 7 (http://www.spaceports.com/~albion/legolas7.html) - look near the center above the animated file I made with Legolas and Gandalf and Shadowfax.

[Melian Le Fay]

Hey, Nenya, I just disovered that "Evenstar" is Arwens necklace, the one she gives to Aragorn! (in the film, I guess Galadriel gives it to him in the book)!
So, I don't think "Evenstar" means the same as "Undomiel"...
Correct me if I'm wrong!
And as for FRP, definitely count me in!!!:D

[Legolas_lover12]

it's RPG;)

[ms Greenleaf]

Hey rather than taking characters from the LOTR why don't we make ourselves into characters that resemble others--- oh wait we might argue over the same guy(legolas) and the purists will not like it but hey it could work --- But I agree no anime and not to much haking

Okay, let's get this straight from the books. "Evenstar" is the same as the Elvish Undomiel - it's what they call Arwen. In the book she gives the necklace to FRODO at the very end and indicates it will help him with the pain of his wounds. And it does.

I don't understand why those who love the movies and the characters don't read the books. Could someone explaine?

[Nenya Evenstar]

Ugh! kazren! Don't just jump on people because they are not all that familiar with the books - besides, I can see why Millena would think the way she does. Not everybody is as into the books as lots of people are, and that's perfectly ok! Some people don't find Tolkien interesting (I don't understand this myself, but it doesn't bother me that certain people feel this way), and therefore like the movie better.

Millena here's a quote:
So it was that Frodo saw her whom few mortals had yet seen; Arwen, daughter of Elrond, in whom it was said that the likeness of Luthien had come on earth again; and she was called Undomiel, for she was the Evenstar of her people.

Also:
"A gift I will give you [to Frodo]... But wear this now in memory of Elfstone and Evenstar with whom your life has been woven!" And she took a white gem like a star that lay upon her breast hanging upon a silver chain, and she set the chain about Frodo's neck. "When the memory of the fear and the darkness troubles you," she said, "This will bring you aid."

Also, Millena is right about Galadriel giving Aragorn something in Lorien.

Then she lifted from her lap a great stone of a clear green, set in a silver brooch that was wrought in the likeness of an eagle with outspread wings; and as she held it up the gem flashed like the sun shining through the leaves of spring.
That's the gift Galadriel gave Aragorn. ;)


Ok, now about the RPG: Yes, you HAVE to make up your own characters - that's a must. :) I don't really think it would be any fun to have a bunch of Legolas's running around... But anyway, I'll get it set up ASAP in the Lighthearted RPG section. I'll let you guys know when I set it up, and please join! Just one question though - do you guys think I should keep the story line the same?

[Melian Le Fay]

I don't think I was wrong!
And you can say it as one word - FRP!:)

I don't understand why those who love the movies and the characters don't read the books. Could someone explaine?

First of all, I read the books some time ago, and can't remember all the details (I've read it once so far), and I've seen the film just reacently, so I guess it was much easier to remember that scene!
Second, I read the books in Serbian, which means that "Evenstar" was translated, I guess into "the evening star", so I couldn't quite understand the expression "Evenstar"
Third, I DID ask Nenya (or anyone else for that matter) if I was right or wrong!!!
And as for last, you can't jump to conclusions just like that! some peple DO like the film, and DO like the characters and have actually READ the books, but not for 10 times or so!!!


And Nenya, thanks a lot for defending me!:D
That's what the fellow Mithril Knights should do!:D


And as for everyone : I LOVE THE BOOKS AND TOLKIEN!!! Why do you think I would be here, anyway...

[Nenya Evenstar]

Hey, you bet Millena! I'm proud to be a fellow Mithril Knight with you! :D

[Melian Le Fay]

Nenya, are you planing on making some FRP (RPG, whatever)? If you are, you have to count me in!!! I ADORE FRP, and really miss playing it...all of my friends have no time...or just don't want to play it...And I love the D&D system...And is there a better world than this?!:cool:
We played once FRP in Tolkien's world with a pool-table... why the pool table? Well, don't you think that Saruman was bored in that big tower of Orthanc, all alone... He had something to do with that pool-table... I wanted to put a pinball machine, but everyone looked at me with strange faces...I wonder why...:confused:
But, they at least let me put in a pool-table for poor, bored Saruman...:D :D :D
I promise I won't do anything like that anymore!;) :D

[ms Greenleaf]

use tyhe idea i mean lots of people have thought of it---i think besides I like my ideas--- cocky me I know but hey what can i say we are geniouses;)

[Melian Le Fay]

Of course we are geniuses! It would be very silly even to think otherwise!
;) :p :D :D

And above all we are quite modest! :p

[Nenya Evenstar]

Ok, maybe it'll be a lot longer than I was expecting before I get the RPG up and running - I don't know what I'm doing yet, and that's the truth. But, I will post back here once I figure it out. I'm confused and trying to brainstorm!

[kazren]

Well, Nenya, I didn't think asking why people didn't read the books was 'jumping on people.' I think you're reading into my words intentions I did not have. What is offensive about that? There are people out there, I know some are friends of mine, who swear they loved the FOTR movie, but have never opened the books and have no intention of doing so, and when I ask them why, they can't really say.

So I am curious. That is not the same thing as 'jumping on people.' Have any of you read "The Four Agreements"? One is not to make assumptions. I try not to do that, I ask questions instead.

[Nenya Evenstar]

Sorry that I jumped on you kazren! :) I guess I misread what you were saying, and took it all the wrong way. Your post just seemed a little, well, blunt and not very nice. No, I haven't read "The Four Agreements". Anyway, sorry for biting your head off! :) Peace!

[ms Greenleaf]

how about we start the rpg by using our original conversation? About elf ears and being an elf

[ms Greenleaf]

Another thing i liked about elves (yes this is off topic) is
there yearning to go to the ocean, I mean if you have
ever been to the open ocean (harbours and bays do not
count) and see the breakers it really calls to you (me
anyway) Ps if middle Earth is europe then the elves went
to Canada

[Nenya Evenstar]

I've got a problem about starting the RP soon because I found out that you can only be in two RP's at a time. I'm already in two right now, and I've got one that is on the way. One of them is almost done, but then I've got one that is just starting and one that is somewhere in the middle. So, when I get finished with these RPs I'll do this one. :( I'm sorry guys... it'll happen someday though. :D And yeah, we'll keep the story. :) I guess we're just going to have a lot of time to brainstorm!

BTW, ms Greenleaf, I'm guessing that you're from Canada? :D

[Melian Le Fay]

That's strange, I could'n help imagine Elves sailing to Canada... Weird, right?
But their love for the sea is what amazed me when I was reading the books! It's somehow, you always imagine Elves in forests, loving trees, etc. I guess that's how they're portrayed in mythology... But elves and the sea?!!! So unexpected, yet so beautifull....

[Legolas_lover12]

well, they could've gone to the U.S. too!!:D:D:D

[Nenya Evenstar]

That's exactly what I was thinking, ll12. :D But actually, the elves went somewhere else - remember how the waterway to Aman was moved and bent so that only elves could find it? I believe that elves still exsit somewhere out there in Aman, and if we were like Earendil with a Silmarill strapped to our brow we might just find the path and see the mountains of Taniquetil shining in the sun with our own eyes. :)

[Melian Le Fay]

I'd say I'm a pretty much a logical person (thank you very much, Mr. Spock!), but, while I was reading Tolkien's books, I somehow felt like he was talking about our own world, about things that happened long, long time ago, so long that our memories of it do not exist anymore...
Every legend, myth or story has a small part of truth in itself. Everything starts from truth. And all our myths about elves, and wizards... Where do they coma from? Logically, it can be explained that these myths are personifications of our wishes and desires, and some primitive explanations of the world around us... But the world or our psyche are not always logical...:rolleyes:
Who knows?
I guess the dreamer part of me wishes there might be something in all this... But logicity demands that such things do not exist.
But logic is boring.
And dreamers go where no man has gone before...

OK, OK, I've been wathing the Star Trek just a while ago, but still, I mean all I wrote!

[Nenya Evenstar]

Well, I've been thinking a little over a day now about how I should reply to Confusticated's post. To tell you the truth, I never even thought about what I was writing - it just came out. I found out with a shock yesterday after reading your post that I have basically begun to believe that Valinor really does exist. I never believed that before, but I have begun to now. This belief has just crept into my very being, if you will, and I don't think that I can stop it now that it has started. Confusticated, I'm glad that someone else is out there who is obviously as insane as I am. Oh, where has my sanity gone? :)

Now I must be logical, for as Spock says, "Jim, life is not a dream". My logic says that no, there is no Valinor, but my will and my heart do not say that, and I don't think they ever will. I am in fact getting a little afraid of my thoughts here because I do not want to think any other way. I really, truely want to believe in a Valinor and in elves. Oh well! What can I do? I've been completely infected by this idea, and I'm proud of it! :D

[Legolas_lover12]

i have always believed that everything in ME used to exsist!!! and i'd rather be a dreamer than listen to my logic:

When we believe in our dreams, they can carry us to the stars

[Melian Le Fay]

But maybe there are two worlds, two dimensions: the one we perceive with our mind, logic, and the other inside ourselves... And everything we imagine, becaomes a part of that world... some philosophy, huh?:rolleyes:
And, Confusicated, could you explain yourself a bit more...?

But girls, i think we may have strayed off the topic a bit, don't you think?

So, let's go back to it!
Who thinks Legolas is hot in the FOTR?
I do!!!!!;) :p :D :D

[Nenya Evenstar]

Ok, yeah yeah, Legolas is hot. What's new! :D ;)

Confusticated, wow! I can see how much harder it would be for you to really believe this stuff. I'm a Christian and already believe in a God, so it must be a whole lot easier for me to believe in Tolkien's world than you. Isn't Tolkien amazing how he really, truely makes us believe this stuff? What would the world be like without him!

[Nenya Evenstar]

Ok, sounds good. Perhaps a thread where we can see how many other people are beginning to believe in Tolkien's wonderful world as well. See you over there! :)

[Melian Le Fay]

Hey, I want to go there too!!!
Tell me how to find you!
:) :) :)

[Legolas_lover12]

well u really weren't bothering us but u can go to the sil section. tell me when u find a good thread!!:D

[Melian Le Fay]

Sorry, LL12, but I don't think I understood you....who's bothering who....what new threads....what Sil sections.......aaaaaaaaaaaaahh......help!!!!:confu sed:

[Legolas_lover12]

no one is bothering me
u guys sed u were gonna go find a thread in the sil section so i sed tell me when u find it.

K??

[Melian Le Fay]

K ;) :p

[ms Greenleaf]

aBout why I think the elves went to Canada, Number of reasons
yes I am CANADIAN
I do not think the Us cause its too commercial.
Canada is very scenic and the land and oceans are wild. There are lots of trees
i have to beleive that I am part elf ( I know I am insane)
There are a lot of natural reserves. It would be damn useful to be able to walk on snow if you live in Canada.
To live in minus 40 degree wheather we must be magic.

Oh and I know a lot of people with the ear thing happeneing.

also....... there is alot of wild life

and---- some more ideas people i am running short


Hey I know what I am going to do I am starting a post on where the elves went





;)

[ms Greenleaf]

good pun but honestly i think it makes a good argument

[Nenya Evenstar]

I've posted it!!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally posted our thread. It's in The Hall of Fire forum under the title of "Do you really believe?"

BTW, Confusticated, thanks for the great laugh.

[ms Greenleaf]

noone answered my question (teaar) sigh:( :(

[Nenya Evenstar]

Well, I'm not Canadian, so I don't think I can help you out much there as I would have wanted the elves to come to the U.S.... But they are somewhere else - you know, on the bent sea path.

[Melian Le Fay]

I believe it is the STRAIGHT sea path...

[Legolas_lover12]

yah .............that's what i thought ......................

[Nenya Evenstar]

I don't know what it is literally called because my dumb mind is all hazy about that! I forgot too much of what I read in the Sil! But anyway, you know how the Valar bent the world or whatever so that there was no longer a direct path to Valinor? That's what I meant! I am reading the Sil again so that soon I won't have problems like this. Yay!

[ms Greenleaf]

no but it would make a great argument i meen really they could have gone to China for all we know so come see the Thread<<Please>> It was pretty good I thought but I am biased so hey. ps if the elves went to Canada they may have migrated over tto the us

[Legolas_lover12]

yah. cuz we all know how much elves love to play baseball. LOL. really they do!:D:D:rolleyes:

[Legolas_lover12]

well ummm, i'm gonnas be honest with you. it needs some work. but it is still very good. i problably couldn't do that well. my specialty is animals. LOL> but, no offense, it does scare me a little bit. LOL. :rolleyes:

[Nenya Evenstar]

:eek: I couldn't do that.... I thought it was pretty good - the hair is perfect! I can't draw people for the life of me.

ms. greenleaf? Where is this thread you are talking about? I'll come if I know where it is....

[Melian Le Fay]

I can help you a little with this bent-stright path....
Once the world was "streight" (I don't know wether he ment literally, or not), but Men couldn't reach Valinor because it was hidden. Well, Earendil could, because of the silmaril, you know that. But, when Numenorians tried to qonquer Valinor, both the Valar and God destroyed them and Numenor as well (it sank), and God made the world round, and put lands in the west, but those were just ordinary lands, which men also explored while trying to reach the place where Numenor once was. But Valinor was set also in the west, except that west was something like "another dimesion", and only the STRAIGHT path led to it, while the other, "ordinary" west could be reached by a curved, bent path, since the world was made round.
And Elves and some others could only reach valinor, they were the only ones who could sail the straight path....and thus they sailed into legend... :(

hope this helped!

and as for the Canada - USA debate...well, guys, as you can see it, your lands stand on the bent path... but valinor is there somewhere, above you...in other circles of the world....

[Nenya Evenstar]

Yeah, that helped. Thanks for the memory refresher. I just read the part in the Sil. about the Valar hiding Valinor by placing the enchanted Isles between ME and Valinor. I agree with your whole last part - that's why I'm so sad that elves aren't here anymore. :(

[Melian Le Fay]

It's very interesting how people can't help comparing (at least geographicaly) ME to Europe, and Valinor to America... I've also compared ME to Europe, but for me America, no matter how beautiful it is, is always some ME-like country...
Should I go to the "where the elves went" debate and shatter their dreams of ever meating elves...?;) :p Nah...that'd be cruel...

[Nenya Evenstar]

Well, you know, it's only in fun. Of course the elves didn't go to either America or Canada! That would completely contradict everything that I believe and everything that the Sil. says. Oh well! It's fun to do "What if's"!

[Melian Le Fay]

Well, maybe we Europeans should make a thread "where Mirkwood is"... We might dig out some Elves here , too!!! :p :D :D

[Nenya Evenstar]

And then those people from New Zealand who think that NZ is ME would argue that they have the whole thing and Europe has none of it....

[Melian Le Fay]

But then Australia would be Valinor...:confused:
Or maybe... ME is in another dimension, paralel to our own!!!!:rolleyes: :p :D

[Nenya Evenstar]

I like that idea better than any yet... Planet Earth can't be ME now, can it because ME still exists! :p

[Melian Le Fay]

That's part of my fantasies about ME... If it really were there, and you somehow, by some strange cosmic chance, entered that world...Ahhh!!! To be a plainswalker! ;) :o So, maybe Tolkien secretly entered that world and that's how he explained it so well!!!;)
(this I should write in your thread)
But, of course, it takes only good imagination to invent such world... Imagination, or being in such world!!!! ;) :p :D

OK, OK, I should stop with this...:rolleyes:

[Nenya Evenstar]

lol - go ahead and post it in my thread! It's kind of dead anyway and could use some revival. That way we wouldn't have to bother this sacred thread with such frivolous chatter that isn't at all on topic. Hehehe... My thread is waiting! :D

[Melian Le Fay]

Sacred thread... LOLOLOL
Don't worry, just once in a while mention that Legolas is hot, and no one would be angry with you!;) :D :D

[ms Greenleaf]

No Millena go I like arguing any way Nenya you found it did you not? ookay I think that one of you university lit students should write an essay on it that would be so intriging it really is an adiquit argument cause everyone has their own veiws. Some people take the books too literally

[Melian Le Fay]

uhhh... I'm sorry, ms Greenleaf, but I don't quite follow you...:rolleyes:
could you explain what exactly you mean...?:)
And WHO takes the books literally?!

[Nefmariel]

100% deffinatly! I like him in all movies I have seen him in

[Finduilas]

Ye,that's a thread for me:D
I somewhere mentioned that Legolas was hot and everybody jumped on me.But now I'm safe here.
Oh,Gil-Galad just come...:D :D :D

[Lossengondiel]

I think he is 75% cute...Strider edges him out of first place by just a little teeny bit, but he still is hot :)

[Finduilas]

You know what?your Strider is ugly!:mad: :mad: :mad:
He can't be before Legolas because he is not prettier.

[Nóm]

So folks, but Elrond is the hot one of the movie. :D

yay we're friends thats good but Viggo is the best looking...

[Finduilas]

You know we can go on with that for ages.........and I still won't think Viggo is hotter........:D :D :D

[Lossengondiel]

and i still wont think Orlando is hotter...

[Nefmariel]

I'm siding with Finduilas on this one. Legolas/Orlando is HOT! he also (atleast in articles) seems to have a nice personality. but Strider/Viggo is nice looking too.

Come on , all of you enlighted students or people <you can't be both> and let's write an essay on why are Elves so attractive!!!!
Does anyone agree with me?

[ms Greenleaf]

Okay can you Arragorn lovers look at a pic of Viggo MOrtensen out of Character he is only "Hot" in Character

[APagorn]

he's got long blond hair. His hair may be straight but he isn't

[annalovesviggo]

are you implying he's gay?

anyway- i think he is pretty gorgeous, and I do have3 posters of just him in my room, but i think aragorn (viggo mortensen) is fitter- hence my name.

apagorn- i get the impression ur female, and if you don't think legolas is fit, I must ask u- r u gay?

[spirit]

[i]apagorn- i get the impression ur female, and if you don't think legolas is fit, I must ask u- r u gay? [/B]


ohhh ohhh! i feel a fight commin up. gotta say... they r both georgous but in real like bloom is better that viggo

[Firawyn]

Yes Legolas is very cute, in costume. I personally think Frodo is a babe, OUT OF COSTUME. Anyway, I've seen better.

PS......Harry Potter is dumb.

lol.

[Ol'gaffer]

How can you people say that a person without a shred of personality like that orlando bloom portraying very badly (yes!) Legolas is better than Harry Potter who actually has some interesting features! Orlando bloom only got chosen for legolas because no one else wanted to prance around in stockings for 3 years than him! :mad:

[spirit]

if you are reffering ot the scar...it is just a scar and that is not that intresting, but what is intresting it how he got that scar actually.

[Ol'gaffer]

I'm not referring to any scar! I'm referring to the conflicts that he has to go through that contain issues like loyalitiy and friendship!

[spirit]

who actually has some interesting features i thought you meant appearance wise. sorry. lol
yea i guess it all that stuff can be intresting. when is the 5th book comming out neways?

Orlando bloom only got chosen for legolas because no one else wanted to prance around in stockings for 3 years than him! maybe he dint know what he mite have to do :confused:

I'm so happy!:p Glad that I'm not the only one who stands up for what they believe in!

[spirit]

lol. If you stand up for what you believe it can SOMETIMES cause problems. but comeon admit it...it is not the greatet book in the world!!

Ya I know standing up for things can get you in trouble. But who said I wasn't looking for trouble! I'm a little rebel!!
But for everyone's sake, I'll try to be a good girly-tomboy!!:p

[33Peregrin]

Wow..... Tolkien's books just mean so much more to me than who is hot. Yes, I think Orlando is a good looking guy, and a good Legolas, but really, I see nothing really spectacular about him. Sorry. Elijah is a lot better to me.:)

[ladyoflorien]

orli is not just a good looking guy, he just plain gorgeous!!! geeze i love that man! i just think he is one of the hottest guys in the world. i think elijah is really cute and adorable. lij is just a different kind of good looking than orli. lij is cute, orli is hot!

[ms Greenleaf]

Actually acting wise aragorn and Gandalf and Gimli outshone Frodo and Legolas...Legolas said little mind you...unfortunetly I do not see people out wooing Gandalf...JMO mind you if you want him... anyways HARRY potter is a good book not as good in my opinion as TLOTR mind you the movie of TLOTR is also ALOT better than Harry Potter partially cause older actors have a easier time associoating w/their roles because they can use situations in their lives to relate to,

[Elf Goddess]

He is hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

[ladyoflorien]

couldn't say it better myself!!!!!!!! he is frickin' fine!

[e.Blackstar]

If you really think he's hot, go to www.full-bloom.net/images/legolas.html :D

[ladyoflorien]

i know! i love those pics. i think i have probably seen every orli pic ever taken!!!!!!!!!!

[lotrobsession4]

I say he's 100% hot! Even though he's very good looking, I agree some people do go a little overboard with it sometimes. I have seen a lot of threads and websties that are "ga-ga over leggy". No offense or anything tho! my friends do I say I too talk about him a little too much :D :p
