he didn't look like orli in fotr either. when he was on graham norten and they held up a picture of him as leggie all the audience seemed kinda shocked!!!

[squirrel]

yeah cause I think Orli looks a little spanish sometimes and Legolas.. well does not look any spanish

[Tar-Ancalimë]

this should go in cast chat as youre talking about, well, a cast member lol

thank you :)

[lourdelia]

i think you can tell he is orlando but more legolas.....the facial expressions....the mouth...and this sexy look he gives in all these pics i have lol....the frowning/baffled/im hot look!
then theres that shy am i doing this right look that i love lol
the only thing that
throws me off is the blond hair blue eyes, and the almost always serious note in his voice
( Shall i decribe it for you?...or should i just find you a box) that wasnt so serious but hey...he was talking to gimlie at helms deep...not scared or anything!

I didn't even know who Orlando Bloom was until I saw the FOTR, fell for Legolas (was the eyebrows and bone structure that did it for me) and then when I got home, logged onto the internet to find out who played him. Got the shock of my life finding out he'd really got dark hair etc... It disturbed me falling for a long blond haired fella as they're not usually my type so I was relieved to see that he really had short dark hair. :archer:

[Woodland Gal]

i no i was like orlando who?...but now im like yes orlando...yes i know who orlando is...yes i love orlando...thats orlando

I dont know why, but I kinda seperate the two. There's Orli (my love) and then there's Legolas (nice to look at). I really don't think of them as the same person. I think it's the difference in the voice, not so much the physical differences. :archer:
