Best Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit Characters

The Top Ten

1 Legolas Legolas Legolas is a character in J. R. R. Tolkien's legendarium. He is a Sindarin Elf of the Woodland Realm and one of nine members of the Fellowship of the Ring. He has been portrayed by Orlando Bloom in the live action movies.

The best though. He has so many cool fighting scenes and is hands down the most savage character...besides Thranduil. I don't know how Thranduil himself got so low on the list. Only 30? Top 5 for me. Same with Sam. Only 13?! He's the emotional support hobbit! But still...Legolas is literally the best. His archery skills are fantastic. And he's also incredibly flexible. He's also played by Orlando Bloom which makes him so much better, because he's is an amazing actor. I just wish Glorfindel was in the LOTR. Also one of the best characters in The Silmarillion and is replaced by Arwen in the scene in the river. They should make a Silmarillion movie directed by Peter Jackson. I really want to see that. It's sad though that he's considered ugly in Elvish standards, which he isn't. I mean, who else can do fight orcs while keeping their hair completely flawless?

Oh boy loads of fangirls

Legolas is AWESOME! Seriously. Alright, I wouldn't say he's da best (Aragorn is! *-*) but still, he's pretty good. - Ash_lovesLOTR

SO HOT

Also he’s really powerful, he only gets wounded twice in the whole thing!
