Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai  

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.

I don't even remember who that is.

Unsurprising, since he is only onstage (so to speak) briefly in The Hobbit, and the characterization is, well, not much like the Elves of LotR. Thranduil is Legolas' father, the king of the Elves of Mirkwood.

If I were a true Tolkein geek, I would be able to tell you of what type. I do know he's not Noldor, though. Okay, upon reviewing Wikipedia (here), he's Sindarin, at any event.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Compassionately intolerant

I can totally see Lee Pace as an elf. His bone structure = perfect.

But they're going to have to assign an eyebrow shaver specifically to him.
