I hear that Legolas shows up in the new Hobbit movie for some reason. Seriously, dufuq?

It actually kinda makes sense, the way they justify it.

His father has long been established as the King of Mirkwood, and they added a LOT of stuff to the Hobbit movies that weren't in the books. It's seriously the only case I've seen an adaptation of a book where there's more in the movies than there is in the book. Pretty cool.

But Legolas actually seems like he fits well in the narrative and he's such a dick this time around, it's kind of an interesting change. XD
