Hey folks, Tar Elenion is right [ as usual] There is absolutely no way that the 2 legolai are one.

and all speculations to his age are based on more or less accurate and/or plausible inferences. again, T-E's points are relevant.

The movie guides arbitrary age is just that, it has no greater canonical authority than any one else's.

As a personal opine, Legolas acts like I would expect a man prince in his early 20's. Elf wise I would be inclined to place him at less than 1,000 yrs.

but that is pure and useless speculation on my part.
