But see, the thing with that is that tight-rope walking, no matter how uncommon it is, is still, technically, a modern day thing. I think this one is over looked because of the fact that after the snow walking thing (which I really don't like), everyone thinks that Legolas can do anything. That was the impression I got. I think the other thing is that PJ wanted to develop the Elves a little more than they were described in the books. In the books, Elves are described as being light footed and agile. All of the stunts in the movies show this characteristic of the Elves. The ones in the Fellowship more so than the ones later on.

Saucy, I agree with you about Legolas's little twirl onto the horse. I thought it was cool at first, but now it just bugs me to the point of death. I hate it when he goes and defies the laws of gravity!!
