August 17, 2002

In the August 23/30 (#668/669) issue of Entertainment Weekly, there is a preview article on The Two Towers on pages 80 and 81. Orlando is finally mentioned at the top as a starring member, and he is even quoted! The snippet says: "Bloom, as Legolas, had to learn to swing a sword with elfin suavity, modeling his moves on Japanese samurai. 'When you see those guys fighting, everything is so precise,' he says. 'There's nothing loose or chaotic - they never even get angry.'"
