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

A dick huh? Now I'm interested... thank god for context.

I wonder if they're gonna come up with a plot reason as to the change in his demeanor between trilogies.
