I love you orly,you’re such a nice guy and cute
omg for a moment i said: “he broke up with the cabbage patch” oh but no! =(
He looks really good in those Levis!
Such a hottie. ;)
And Amber is adorable.
It looks like the cast really gets along well.
No not yet….however you have to admit….that the dinner date looks an awful lot like most of Orlando and Miranda’s.
Been preparing for the role for about two years now. What’s with the strange look on his face though? It’s the same evil look he gives paps when he’s on a date with Miranda. Gee I wonder why.
Can’t seem to get out of character can he.
and all cops have mustaches.
He’ such a one-dimensional actor.
…….I knew the Delphi loonies would try to twist a scene from a MOVIE into some conspiracy theory……and of course they can tell exactly what Orlando is thinking and feeling from a photo…..talk about delusional!!!
Go Orly you look great .
Ingrid: You are right abot him him being one dimensional but he is really trying to improve himself, you can’t say he isn’t
My God he should wear jeans that FIT and don’t hang down around his knees more often!! Lookin’ pretty sharp there guy! And yeah, I love Amber Tamblyn too. She’s such a cutie!
cool .. didn’t know she was in this .. looking forward to the movie .. orli is hott
The jeans are his costume for the film, dummy. Notice in 2 of the pictures he and Patricia Clarkson are being awed by being in the presence of Colln Firth. Now there is a star.
…in those baby blue jeans - same color as his girlfriend’s eyes! If they haven’t already - bet he rushed back to the hotel after today’s shooting to celebrate her bd! What a beautiful couple!
Uhmmmm, who said that they weren’t?
Must be awful to go through life filled with such nastiness.
*sigh*
Orlando…
What a handsome man.
“Must be awful to go through life filled with such nastiness.”
Yes but “looking great…” post # 13 - seems to do it so well, and so often….
I think that orlando is the hottie in u.k. and i think i would faint if i met him he is really hot i want to kiss you orly.
There are just certain actors that kill a movie for me. Not that they’re untalented or underserving by any means; it’s just a personal thing. I find them so uninteresting that they suck the movie dry. Amber is one and Casey Affleck is another. I also don’t think Naomi Watts is all that gifted when it comes to range. She’s usually portrays misery or outrage quite well, but that’s about it. JMO.
I’m sorry, I don’t wanna be negative, but actors are in the public eye so everyone is entitled to their own opinion…and I think he has absolutely no range …and is one of the ugliest actors out there…
Amber reminds me of your typical “girl next door” type She’s not gorgeous, but she has this sweet sort of innocent quality about her -. and I think she’s cute. She and Orlando Bloom should make a pretty well-matched on-screen couple.
Ugly? I can think of a few actors who might fit that description, but not Orlando Bloom, at least not in my opinion. I can appreciate that you don’t think much of his acting talent - but I certainly can’t agree with you that he’s “one of the ugliest actors out there.”
The guy chosen to play Legolas, a character described by Tolkein as “fair of face beyond the measure of men” is ugly???
The guy chosen to play Paris of Troy who was so admired by the gods that they fought over his favor is ugly?
Sure, you don’t want to be negative.
*rollseyes*
Amber is a good actress. Good luck to her!

His looks have suffered over the years. Time, life, stress, personal health choices or lifestyle choices, too much jet setting or air travel, the industry in which he works, as well as his own inner self (or true nature) seeping through may all be partly to blame. The Legolas you refer to, #22, can still be seen here, in photos taken from a time *before* Bloom became Hollywoodized and turned celebrity:
75895041.jpg
75659867.jpg

That person is barely recognizable here:
80591332.jpg
79828774.jpg
79695898.jpg
I’m sorry if my opinions offend anyone. From my point of view, Bloom has lost his looks and his appeal. I do hope he works on improving his acting because *that* will carry him through long after his celebrity star fades and tabloids don’t bother to feature him anymore. In fact, it may well be that when his celebrity status and tabloid coverage end that his acting will improve.
Something is different in his face, his eyes…it’s hard to pinpoint, but it’s almost as if his very soul has changed, gotten lost somewhere, or as though he’s gone through some kind of metamorphosis, with the resulting inner changes manifesting themselves on his face. The Orlando Bloom of today is a totally different Orlando Bloom from years ago. The actor and person who played Legolas doesn’t exist anymore, in my opinion.
Some people are perhaps more vulnerable to Hollywood and its temptations than others, just as some people are seduced by bright lights and celebrity more than others. I think Orlando has what he wants and has gone after the things he values and believes in, and if he’s happy in his life and with his choices, then that’s what’s ultimately important. But I absolutely do NOT see the same reasonably good looking man in fairly recent pictures that I see in ones taken before his career really took off. It’s interesting to see the path that his life has written upon his face…
#25 here. Too bad the links aren’t working. The pix are on Getty. They speak for themselves.
a guy with a MOUSTACHE or WHISKER:
- loves to talk about himself.
- he thinks there is just one important person on this globe: HIMSELF.
- he isn’t really interested in social problems.
- he can’t deal with difficulties.
- money is everything to him.
- “status” you can buy.
- cars & houses are his love.
SHE STILL WANNA HAVE DINNER WITH HIM, folks?
He’s ten years older than when he played Legolas. Of COURSE he has changed. He has matured beautifully in my opinion. His features are losing that baby sofness, that he has carried for so long, which brings out his amazing bone structure.
You are projecting. Your beliefs have changed the way you percieve him, not the man himself. He still devotes a large amount of time to charity. He is still known for his work ethic and professionalism. He is honing his abilities by working in smaller productions, instead of going for the money. All of the things that have always seemed important to him, still are.
He goes to a nightclub once in a while. He often goes to dinner with friends. He smokes. He drinks. But he is nowhere near the partier that he could be if he had truly fallen into the trap of Hollywood that seems to beckon to most young stars.
He is still beautful, in my eyes.
Oh, and PS:
Hi Carmen.
What a load of nonsense, of course Orlando looks slightly different, it’s called getting older…duh!
He was 22 filming the first lord of the rings but looked like a teenager and now he looks like he should, a 32 year old MAN!
As for his personality, it’s only natural and normal that he would mature and grow up just like everybody else does.
Unless you know him personally there is no way to tell in what way he has changed or not changed, besides it’s his life and nobody else can tell him how to live it!!!
Oh well the Delphi loons are here what is new? They have no life
If the Delphi loons don’t care for Orlando anymore why do they
talk about him 24/7 search for every piece of informacion about him see every picture ever taken of him are on every thread that just jared has about him and talk about his pivate life non stop?
This is not normal than don’t get offended if people call you loons .
It’s the same way with Miranda…..
They “hate her”, they are “sick of her”, they are “tired of looking at her”, and my fav, they are “tired of having her forced down their throats”.
Yet they are the first to post on her threads, instead of ignoring them. Will continue to post on them, spouting the same bulls**t over and over (raising her hit count). And bring her name up in threads where she isn’t even mentioned.
They have no lives of their own, so they chose to hate people who seem happy.
Yes, they are….wit for it…
PATHETIC LOSERS!
“What a load of nonsense..”
That’s our Carmen, for ya.
The short hair and pornstache will never be my favorite look on him and those Dad pants with NO chance of boxer peekage…meh.
But the shirt and what it covers are droolworthy and that smile still rocks.
And best of all, HE’S WORKING!
I don’t know who “Carmen” is but it’s not me……..I’m just responding to the inane comment from 25!!!
I know, I was agreeing with your comment.
#25 is Carmen
A notorious fandom nut case that believes that Orlando is/should be celibate whilst he awaits his true love…..her.
Her posts always stand out in their ‘inanity’.
She may as well sign her name to ‘em. :)
“believes that Orlando is/should be celibate whilst he awaits his true love”
Just something I would like to add if I may.
Just as a general rule, not for any one particular person, celebrity or otherwise.
Anyone who expects the one they wish to spend the rest of their life with to either be a monk or a nun until they meet them, is a very selfish person in my book.
We don’t really know what is going on between Orlando and Miranda, or Orlando and anyone else for that matter.
I am not Carmen, but even if I were to believe that there may be a chance someday for me or anyone else, I certainly would not expect them to be celibate until they found me, no matter who they are.
If this Carmen person is looking for someone who is celibate before they meet her, then the words to describe her get very difficult to say.
Orlando is just a person, like anyone else.
Many “celebrities” prefer having someone to share their life with who is not in the spotlight. For the simple fact that, being with that person they are less likely to be stalked by the paps as much.
Whatever Orlando decides to do with his life, and whomever he chooses to spend it with, is his choice to make.
I wish him well and I hope that this movie he is filming does get made.
I just found out that it does not have a distributor yet, and it will be going to the Cannes Film Festival in order to hopefully find a buyer.

Best Wishes Everyone!
So probably Orlando will also attend the Cannes Festival this May?
If so, the delphidians must somehow be happy cause Orly and their favorite model will maybe finally have the chance to meet in person LOL
ORLI you look cute!
“If so, the delphidians must somehow be happy cause Orly and their favorite model will maybe finally have the chance to meet in person”
I always liked Christie Brinkley and I’d be happy to have OB meet her in person, in Cannes or elsewhere.
Of course, CPK might not be so happy….
Yes indeed, Orlando IS aging - as in ‘growing older.’ Happens to all of us - if we live long enough. Imho he still looks mighty fine for 32. Depends alot on his hairstyle, his clothing and yes, the amount of ‘facial fuzz-ware’ he’s sporting on the day he happens to get himself snapped. To me he looks his most youthful and radiant when he smiles - and I’m referring to that amazing ‘open’ smile that extends right up into his eyes and lights up his entire face. Orlando’s one of those people whose feelings and general state of being show up clearly in his face - and especially in his eyes. When he’s happy and all’s right with his world it shows - and the opposite is true as well.
“I wish him well and I hope that this movie he is filming does get made. ”
Uhmmmm, it IS getting made. Do you not see the pictures?????

“I just found out that it does not have a distributor yet, and it will be going to the Cannes Film Festival in order to hopefully find a buyer.”
This is how it works for every INDIE movie. INDIE means no big studio. Indie movies are always shown at film festivals hoping for a buyer. This isn’t anything unusual.
ILOVEORLANDOBLOOM<3
he is beautiful & i think he is an amazing actor
cant wait to see te film !
He is a one-dimensional actor at best, and is no Josh Hartnett in the looks department.. Now THERE is a hottie!
“He is a one-dimensional actor at best”
Legolas, Paris, Joe Bryne, Shy, Balian and Will Turner are all the same character?
A fearless immortal, an outlaw, a couple of selfless heroes and a completely selfish and childish brat? All played with complete believability = one dimensional? Sure. If you say so.
*rollseyes*
“….and is no Josh Hartnett in the looks department.”
Thank goodness!
Orlando is actually good looking.
Really? IMO there have been times recently when Hartnett resembled a homeless derelict. I don’t think he’s a terribly good actor either, at least not in anything I’ve seen him do. Jake Gyllenhaal is better if we’re comparing actors in about the same age group.
Jake is better than Josh, bit I’ll never forgive him for those googly eyed expressions in Brokeback. IMO, he was supposed to act conflicted, not like a fan girl.
Lots of movies get made and are never shown. that is the nature of the business sometimes.
The movie The Fountain was filmed then cancelled because they lost their supporters. It wasn’t until later that it got picked up again.
Yes Main Street is being filmed, and I would love to see it in the theaters or even straight to DVD.
But there are films that get filmed and sometimes do not make it.
Getting “made”, and getting distributed are two different things.
The movie is obviously getting “made”.
I also hope that it will get distributed.
Wording makes all the difference.
That’s the problem with a lot of these small-budget ‘indies.’ Some of them simply end up going direct to DVD. That could possibly be the fate of OB’s other ‘independent’ film, “Sympathy for Delicious,” as well. I hope not but one can never be sure since there’s no ‘big studio’ backing.
met both today in Durham, both were beautiful, youthful and very friendly.
Did you notice if Miranda’s eyes??……everyone who meets her says they’re very blue and just beautiful!
Sorry, she had a sunglasses on. I wish I had seen her eyes
Orlando Bloom is dressed in blue as he and costar Amber Tamblyn film scenes for “Main Street” in Durham, NC. 4.21.09

Isnt one of Johnny Depp’s films going straight to DVD. I mean it has a great cast like Colin Farrell, Heath Ledger, Jude Law etc. I think it maybe going to Cannes.
But didn’t you know? The haters will always be haters when Orlando was on a break THAT HE ANNOUNCED the haters said
that he was done that no one would hire him that he was an has been .
Now that their lies are proven wrong given that Orlando is doing movies and is being OFFERED different projects they are saying he is only doing straight to dvd movies .The haters can never make up their minds . First of all Sympathy for Delicious just got made and these new movie IS STILL BEING FILMED how can we know when and how they are being selled to studios and when will they be out .
And secon of all being the economy as it is a very few movies will be for large distribution and a lot will not be bought and will go straight to dvd no matter the names attached to them.
If he does big, blockbuster movies, the haters say that he is a sell out for not doing smaller films to work on his craft.
if he does smaller films to work on his craft, they say that he is a has-been for not doing big blockbusters.
The haters will always change the facts to suit their agenda.
And with Delphi becomeing a wasteland of 5-6 super-loons hanging on by their fingernails, they will become even more desperate to twist facts to suit them. All of the posters with half a brain don’t post there anymore. Even they got tired of the hypocrisy.
Orlando Bloom is a cutie - but he just doesn’t strike me as ‘officer material.’ To me he’s too effete to come across as a ‘manly’ and rugged police officer with much credibility (again, my opinion). I’ve always thought he should try some light sophisticated comedy, something similar to the stuff Hugh Grant, another rather ’soft’-around-the-edges’ British actor, is best known for. Let’s face it, “Mr. Masculinity” Orlando is not. For the most part I think he should leave the ‘tough guy’ heroics to those who fit that ‘character style’ better (e.g. the Clive Owens, Gerard Butlers and Daniel Craigs). But after seeing him in that little skit he did for “Extras,” I think light comedy/satire is something he should try his hand at again. He was charming and genuinely funny in that part.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but shouldn’t you at least see the movie before passing judgement?
He did just fine in ‘tough guy’ roles like Peter Drinkwater, Joe Bryne and Balian. Even Legolas was a badass. He may have been pretty, but Leggy was an assasin.
You can tell from the on-set pics that he has embraced the cop role. The way he is walking, his body carriage, etc. He just LOOKS like a cop. I’m willing to give him the benefit of a doubt, then make an INFORMED descision on how well he carries it off.
But I do agree that he was quite good in Extras. I would love to see him in a good comedy. But he isn’t nearly as foppish as Hugh. He is much more down to earth and physical, than Hugh. But I can see him doing same typ of roles that Hugh did, when he was younger. But Hugh just keeps playing the same roles. I don’t want that for Orlando.
Of course you’re entitled to your own opinion as well - but I really didn’t find him to be ‘ruggedly masculine’ in any of those roles. Exception: he was perfect as Legolas. There his character depended more on speed, agility and nimble dexterity rather than ‘mannish brute strength.’ And of course he had all those acutely-attuned (and far superior) ‘Elven senses’ to rely on as well. Yes, he was very credible as that character but IMO he would have been badly miscast as Aragorn, Boromir or Faramir - just as examples. Of course I’m willing to give him a chance in this latest film. It will certainly be interesting to see if he does carry it off.
There is a lot of grey area between “effete” and “ruggedly masculine”. ;)
Legolas had an almost feminine beauty, yet he was also obviously all male, and quite masculine. He just wasn’t a knuckle dragger.
I tend to favor the brave, strong yet elegant men, over the burly ‘macho’ types. Both are masculine, just different. I like lithe and athletic, over muscle bound.
Orlando was actually cast as Faramir, before they gave him the pointy ears. Faramir was strong, but no more burly than Legolas. He was just scruffier, and didn’t seem as ‘pretty’. But Faramir was also sensitive and conflicted. He wasn’t like his macho older brother (Boromir) at all. Put Will Turner in a Ranger’s cloak, and you have Faramir. A scuffy, brave, elegant hero.
To each his (her?) own. It would be a boring world if we all liked the same things. :)
PS: The toughest, meanest police officer I know is 5′7″, and 155 lbs. He says that his advantage is always that people underestimate him because of his size. You don’t have to be a linebacker to be tough.
Orlando and Miranda are out in New York hope Jared has a thread about it soon so the loons can have meltdown lolololol.
Sorry but that “couple” are less and less and less and less interesting.
Yet you remain so interested that you come to this old thread just to comment on them.
LOL!
I know that you get lonely over at the ghost town that Delphi has become, but at least try to be a LITTLE original when you venture out.
He’s so beautiful. What movie is this?
@@21&22: I agree with your observation, but the change is from within-the soul that he is has settled for a mortal existence, his aura has diminished, and the energy which we all once saw light up the world is now channeled into a closed coupling, more fatherly than what even he may recognize. There is great goodness and purpose in him not yet brought forth, and the lives he has lived before this one must reawaken him from the walking sleep and reopen the eye of his soul before it is too late.
Yeah we know, he was a saint before he started dating that girl who nobody here knows at all and now he’s changed from saint to evol. We heard it many times, the only novelty is that now it’s been expressed with Zen master-ish speech.
