Orlando Bloom

I know Im not one of "Keira's Girls" but I am taking the liberty of posting here what I think of Orlando Bloom. I think he is a shitty actor. Every role he has been in he has over acted. In the lord of the rings trilogy his Legolas wasn't noticable bad in the first movie because he wasn't even close to the main focus. But in the other two movies I wanted to slap him. He always puts that serious face on and embarasses himself. Which you'll see what I am talking about in Pirates of the Caribbean. Only scene I believed he was Will Turner was when they were on the boat looking at their new crew. Other than that a wooden board with a face painted on it would be better at the part. Troy......Troy blew so excluding Eric Bana everyone in that movie sucked ass.

He does tend to be overly dramatic. "THEY'RE TAKING THE HOBBITS TO ISENGARD!!!!" But, as it's been said before, he IS still young, so he can learn.

He is a horrid little girl. He shouuld be beaten into submission and never allowed to appear on the silver screen again. if you disagree, i dont give a flying fuck. have a happy day! Oh, and orlando bloom looks like a wet linsay.

what pray tell is that?

I think he looks like a rabbit, and although I don't mind him, I'm not totally impressed with his acting.

I don't really care about him actually. I only like him and Kate Bosworth together.

[Julespaxton]

basically a total twat.

is that from a book? with a green cover shit. its got this girl in a plaid skirt on the cover. like a journal type book? sex god? something?

I don't think Orlando can act that well, poor bloke. In LOTR his only facial expression was a look of concern, and (did anyone else notice) every line he said was stating the obvious...for example...

"They're taking the Hobbits to Isengard" - where else would they go?
"You look terrible" (to Aragorn) - we can see that, he's just been down a cliff
"A diversion" - when Aragorn had basically fully discribed what a 'diversion' is
"This forest is old" - big trees = old wood, weeny tress = young wood, therefore, we know!
"The Ring must be destroyed" - um...duh!
"We must go. We cannot linger" - When in potential mortal danger....yes, that would be a good idea...
"The horses are restless...and the men are quiet." - I'm sure Eomer has eyes and ears and can see/hear for himself, lol.

Has anyone seen Ned Kelly?! Its not all that good, though I think it might be if you know the story to start with. Orlando's accent is bad (he has an Irish accent) and he moves after he dies, haha! And in Troy he was totally eclipsed by Eric and Sean who were brilliant!

well blame pj fran walsh and phillipa boyd for the lines. the delivery is all orlandos though

You can't blame Bloom for those stating-the-obvious-remarks because he doesn't have control of what to say. The screenwriters, director, producers, etc. have that power. Famous actors could possibly have some influence, but Bloom was relatively unknown at the time so it would have been difficult for him.

I don't see how Bloom could have said those bad lines any better. As for his acting, it's not great or bad either. Perhaps, he'll improve. Who knows.

Sorry, I'll try not to intrude.

Yeah, I know. Blame the script writers! I don't think his acting is bad, just that next to some of the other actors I didn't think it was all that good. But it was his first role, so you know...have to forgive him and look out for his next film.

yeah i found it on the floor of the girls locker room during my calc final, highly amused by what i read.

[*Surfer_Dudes_Rok*]

I think he's ace i don't know why people give him so much stick....he has probably worked real hard to get where he is and to be in good film like LOTR which was fab! Sure he might not be upto Jonny Depps standard but give the poor guy a chance and anyway he will be richer than any of us so who are we to judge him when soon he will probably be a millionaire....and look how many fans he does have (mainly girl's i know but hey....i'm one of them) he's hott but yeh he can improve and i wish him all the luck in the world....go get 'em tiger! Raaaa!!!!

[Julespaxton]

i think that people only find them attractive beacuse the'yre secretly lesbians. and the gay men that love him are secretly straight.

I guess I can add a few lines here since I used to be obsessed for a short period of time. It might also add to my obsession with Cliff.

The only thing really great about him for ME, was that he's just a ball of charm. It's that British thing, that if your already British, then he's nothing special.

He's handsome, has got a hot accent, and the *potential* to be an ok actor. It's almost a shame that he's actually been through acting school and isn't good already. But hopefully within a few years, it'll improve.

Whats this "British thing" that people always go on about? Is it the accent, the attitude, the look...???? Or am I the only one who dosn't know?

It's the fact that he's nicked Cliffy's middle class accent

Its an accent from North London. Its taught in acting schools as recieved pronounciation (RP). Like Patrick Stewart who is from Sheffield but lost his accent at drama school. Same with Peter O'Toole (who is from Ireland). Its the 'posh' accent that all British baddies have in films, lol. Its probably his normal accent anyway, he hasn't nicked it. Lots of people have that accent naturally.
