I feel like the "Legolas problem" stems from wanting every single character to have development that maybe they don't need. Legolas is almost 3k years old, i'm sure he's had enough character development by the moment it all takes place, and his little change of heart with Gimli is all that we need, so we can focus on other great more important character in the story.

Correct. He and Gimli are side characters despite being in the fellowship. Frodo, Sam and Aragorn have the biggest arcs, next would be Merry and Pippin, then Boromir, then Gandalf, then Gimli and Legolas. At least in my opinion.

Viggo Mortensen wasn't a trained swordsman nor was he familiar with Tolkien's work. His son Henry knew enough of LOTR and convinced his dad to take the part. Mortensen read LOTR Trilogy while on the plane to New Zealand. In short, he arrived pretty much clueless and his first shoot was the swordfight on Weathertop. His trainer later said that in his career of training sword fighting, Mortensen was the best swordsman he trained and the fastest learner he had ever known. Mortensen stayed in character as much as he could and took his (extremely sharp) sword everywhere with him He was stopped on the street in Wellington while still in Aragorn's more seedy costume because he was carrying his sword and practising his fighting as he walked. The police thought he looked dangerous and arrested him. Indeed, by the end of two years, he considered that sword as his entry into the character of Aragorn. After this piece of narration, I found another video to watch. If one represents oneself as an expert enough to make a video giving information, you have to be an expert or you can simply make yourself look stupid.

I love how people call The Lord of the Rings the "Star Wars" of our Generation. No, they have it backwards. Star Wars was the "Lord of the Rings" of theirs. There is absolutely no comparison in the depth of the characters, races, legends and lore that Tolkien poured into this story. It seems like actual history not fantasy. It's impossible and fascinating to imagine any actors being anyone else than they came to be, especially LOTR. Vigo actually had never used a sword before this. One of his first scenes happened to be the sword fight on Weathertop. Lows of the Rings? What are those?

LOTR is not the Star Wars of the 2000s, nor was Star Wars the LOTR of the 70s... That's a post-Hobbit interpretation that is supported by literally nothing, neither the context of the movies's pre-production and filming which is different, nor by the movies's themes, tone or structure... Star Wars works as a space opera, a mashup of genres and varied cultural archetypes of heroes and villains, which allows the main thesis of Lucas's worldbuilding, which is derived from Joseph Campbell's theory of the monomyth, to come through... In short, it's purposefully simple in its execution and themes, but elaborate in its visual worldbuilding which aims for something tonally very complex, a little shakespearian in the way it sometimes juxtaposes the eccentric (R2 and D2 being like secondary comic relief characters in a shakespearian play reacting to the main plot) and the highbrow with the more serious scenes that involve Jedi lore... LOTR is a novelistic work of fiction which is not trying to blend a lot of genres together to conjure up its mythical implications... It's pretty much a classical epic poem in the tone of The Iliad or Beowulf, and its more modern touches lie mainly in the novelistic structure which owes quite a bit to 19th century adventure novels, like Ivanhoe or the Three Musketeers, which are still examples of epic literature, with slightly more emphasis on character development... It's thoroughly highbrow epic fantasy from start to finish... Star Wars is a saga about stories and myths. The Lord of the Rings is a mythological story.

As time passed, I have grown to appreciate Orlando's Legolas (in the original trilogy at least). Since he didn't have a lot of dialogue, I think it shows that he did put a lot of thought and effort in his physical performance. He nailed being a Tolkien elf, approachable and present but there's a certain aloofness to him. It makes me think a lot of Finrod in The Silmarillion. In fact, his is my favorite elven performance now, with Cate Blanchett and Marton Csokas as Galadriel and Celeborn coming in second. Also, Frodo IS the chief hero. That should have been clear as early as when he decided to set out from Bag End to bring the Ring to Rivendell. Tolkien talks about this, and while I don't agree with a lot of the decisions PJ and co. made with Frodo's character, I still think they did good in conveying just how incredible Frodo's heroism is. Letter 246 tells us Tolkien thought quite the opposite. Sam might be the most heroic character, but the main hero has always been Frodo. You need to take into account Frodo's arc and its importance to the overall story compared to Sam's arc. It's a bit of a revisionist idea to say Sam is the real hero, and I blame the movies for that. Lastly, "the chief hero" Tolkien is referring to is Aragorn, not Sam. You need to consider what comes before that sentence to understand the actual context. That quote is comparing Sam's rustic, simple love to Aragorn's grand and noble romance. That's not to say Sam wasn't one of the chief heroes, because he is, it's just that that quote was used incorrectly and does not actually support the argument.

The weird thing about cutting Christopher Lee from the Isengard scene is that this is the only time his character was Meant to appear. (Outside of the 'Scouring' storyline which everyone accepts is too much for films). There were two films of Jackson-invented dialogue and scenes for Saruman and Christopher Lee was a life-long fan off the novels, - to cut his only scene where he actually acted a scene from Tolkien's novel may have cut harder into him than people realise.

Y'all Legolas is good in the movie. Stop nit-picking. You can obviously see the emotions in him at the right times, you can see the respect he has for Aragorn, you can see the friendship between him and Gimli grow. Sure Orlando Bloom isn't the best actor. But don't be a d*ck. Even a child can see Legolas' emotions and relationship changes. Being able to see this on screen with the little dialogue and scenes he has, is very skillful on the whole team's part.

He only didn't drop the ring at the end because the power of the ring in its birth place is so strong that NO ONE would be able to willingly drop it. Not even Sam. Did he need help and support along the way? Absolutely. Is Sam A hero? Definitely. But shoving Frodo aside like so many people do these days shows a great lack of understanding of his sacrifice.

The late Robin Williams would have been a great Tom Bombadil. Amazon's ROP didn't do a great job depicting him.

I always liked that Lotr didnt spend lots of time for the romance between Aragorn and Arwen. Sure you get it, it is subtle, but the main emphasis is friendship and brotherhood. 99.9% of movies in the history of movie-making is more or less about a love story. Its boring.

Some people hated Arwen actually doing things instead of just being an incubator for the same reason they hated Rey and Rose doing shit in Star Wars instead of just standing there. A shame if the filmmakers actually changed it because of misogynistic assholes because I think it would have strengthened one of the weaker spots of the movies. Their initial instinct, that they needed to be on screen together more in order to full sell the romance, was correct.

I do not think that Arwen and Rey should be put in the same category. I am not a huge fan of Rey, especially in the 3rd film, because she is a Mary-Sue (I have nothing against the actress playing her, just to be clear), however, I liked Arwen having more agency. I think it made the love triangle between her, Aragorn and Eowyn a bit more dynamic. Also it's important that we see Aragorn and Arwen interact as a couple, this way Arwen is more than just a pretty "ornament" or a prize for Aragorn to win. I also believe (I have no proof for this) that one of the reasons why they gave more agency to her is to be able to keep some of the plot points (such as the ride to the river), while being able to remove characters who barely show up and might never be mentioned again, like Glorfindel.

I always got the impression that the issue with Rey and Rose was their actual existence... But yeah, about Arwen, I wholly agree with the good person above me.

I need Jackson to release an extra extended edition that's 5-6hrs per movie because I need MORE and all the extra scenes like Arwen at Helm's Deep.
