in peter jackson's "lord of the rings" movie trilogy (2001–2003), legolas was portrayed by orlando bloom. he is presented as an unstoppable fighter, performing various feats or stunts in battle scenes; in the book legolas's exploits in battle are not presented in great detail. the character's relationship with gimli is shown to have moved from brief hostility as seen in "the fellowship of the ring" to respect and friendship in "". this is first seen when éomer tells gimli that he would cut off the dwarf's head "if it but stood a little higher off the ground". legolas drew an arrow on éomer immediately afterwards, claiming, "you would die before your stroke fell." during the battle of helm's deep, the two engage in a contest to see who can slay the most enemies, as they do in the novel, though the films depict legolas constantly being at least one kill ahead of gimli. in "", legolas and gimli continue their friendly competition, which usually (and comically) leaves gimli on the losing side. due to technical mishaps involving bloom's contact lenses, in the films legolas' eye colour sometimes changes between brown, purple, and blue. (in the director's commentary of the extended edition, peter jackson admitted that they forgot to put bloom's contacts in several times.)
