Randomly, I realized that after the whole archer Avengers/Hawkeye/Hunger Games/Katnis debate that LotR never featured in that discussion. A quick google shows Legolas with what seems to me to be correct arm stances. In a way I didn't expect less from a dude with microvision (although I don't hesitate to question his macrovision).
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
They released the appropriate "Wow, that actor can really hit some targets, even if we CGI his shots in the movie!" anecdotes about Orlando Bloom. Still, Jessica Biel wins, IMO. I didn't hear any about Renner.

Here is something about Legolas and his technique as an archer.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, that's a good analysis. Orlando did great.

In what movie did Jessica Biel use a bow and arrow?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

In retrospect, Blade 3 was sort of a precursor to Blade the Series, in that the two main sidekicks ended being far more interesting than the main character in both.

Thrive to spite them
Not just the camera lens but there was protective gear aroound the camera men and the camera except for a 2"x2" space.
She was 30-40 feet away and three stories up. The director told her to shoot at the camera figuring she'd miss and they would CGI.
Instead she shot right into the camera lens and destroyed the camera.

I am shallow enough that I will forgive a lot of transgression for one expensive bullseye. And you can't really charge back for that--unless you bill the PR department?
