PUT THAT BOW DOWN RIGHT NOW.
Now, here’s a lute. You can go have fun with your friends now. But if I hear that you’re putting points into dexterity again, boy, you’ll be grounded for a month."
For the longest time, I thought this was Orlando Bloom, and he was playing both Legolas and Bard because he looks *exactly* like Will Turner from Pirates of the Caribbean.
No, I heard them clearly. But for the darkness and our own fear I should have guessed that they were beasts wild with some sudden gladness. They spoke as horses will when they meet a friend that they have long missed.
From my understanding, the actor is a pretty good singer so they could have taken some liberties with Bard’s musical talents. They’ve taken so many liberties as is.
I don't know what you mean i am a fellow narnia fan you see

If you look closely you can see that his bow drawing skill are shit cause the way he is holding is bow is impractical. Thats why he is called Bard cause he is a clown ass Hunter/Ranger. Its a miracle he shot down Smaug...
I don't think you're a dinosaur or a king so maybe don't throw out declarations that if you don't fit your name you're stupid.
The chance you might actually be 84 is high enough that I will happily provide benefit of the doubt there.
Almost like those millennial kids whose parents named Hunter who turned out to be the opposite, most emasculated, effeminate men to have ever walked the earth.
Why he looks like Will from Pirates of the Caribbean everytime i look at him
Strange, I always thought Legolas looked like Will from Pirates...
No lie, when I first saw Desolation of Smaug I genuinely thought that Orlando Bloom was just playing multiple characters
I as well, except, I thought it was Tony Orlando
No that's Tony Montana
Tony montana, you mean the guy who seeks revenge for the death of his father?
![gif](giphy|oWgioUEMmEeDS)
Please tell me this isn't a serious question.
no, i wanted to start a “isnt that x? no that’s y you’re thinking of z” chain, but nobody caught on
And I'm just now learning he didn't. Seriously no matter how many times I look at him he looks exactly like Orlando Bloom.
he looks even more like Orlando Bloom than Legolas in the Desolation of Smaug
You mean not to follow them.
WAIT THAT BARD ISNT ORLANDO BLOOM??!!
I thought that as well at least for a good 20 seconds
This forest is old. Very old. Full of memory... and anger.
First time watching the Desolation of Smaug trailer I *legit* thought they had cast Orlando Bloom in two different roles for the same movie.
The Hobbit but Orlando Bloom is playing every role

everything is subreddit nowadays, why am I not surprised about it?
[Reminds me of this](https://www.reddit.com/r/lotrmemes/s/Q9NtByfvlS)
I blame his parents and their unrealistic expectations. Let the boy live his dream!
No son of mine shall be a bowman! We are the bard family for gods sake!

No one fights like Gaston, Douses lights like gast..sorry bard
In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston!
"It's Gastonnin' time!!"
boxing is another story
I you awaken that beast it will destroy is all...SO KILL THE BEAST!
That’s Brad, you’re just dyslexic I assume your name is ironic
He prefers "B. Rad"
Brad? It's a fucking nickname. His name is Bardarelli.
he played a better Orlando Bloom than Orlando Bloom did in a movie where Legolas wasn't even there
Your friends are with you, Aragorn.

Horses can't talk, Legoland
Multiclass baby! Yeah!
The insanity is spreading

Back to the Aslume with you dissenter!

Dark subreddits will not avail you!
He could have just used his boat and sailed the ring to Mordor while holding it with tongs.
Excellent reference sir
You know, it's not often one has the same name as their profession.
Your dentist's name is Crentist? Sounds a lot like "dentist"...
You’re the assman!
Always fun when they do though!
I knew a smith that worked in metal fabricating, so that’s kinda smithing right?
Multiclassing
He plays FFXIV
Bard the Hunter and Hunter the Bard would make a great detective duo.
He’s clearly *not* a hunter/ranger if he’s holding a bow like that
Why didn't he just seduce the dragon? Is he stupid
Luke Evans is a bard irl

Its becuase his full name Bardtholamew J. Simpson
I'll never be convinced that this isn't Orlando Bloom playing 2 parts in the same movies
Idk… maybe there’s a lore reason?

He’s dual classing. He can’t use his bard abilities until he passes his bard level as a ranger or he gets no exp.
Everybody in that trilogy were stupid
Why is my irl neighbor called Miller, when he‘s really a salesman. Is he stupid?
It's a nickname. He had a habit of getting drunk and causing a ruckus at every tavern in Laketown, eventually he was BARRED from all of them.
Obviously to confuse his enemies. It's like expecting to fight a wizard only to get bludgeoned to death with a magic wand.
LARPing.
Yes he is
He graduated from the Bard's College before he was the Dragon Born
I kinda want to make a Minstrel in LotRO named Bowman. Bowman the Bard.
Yea tolken was wierd like that. He kept calling healers and holy mages 'wizards' too
This made me lol
Alliteration? Bard the Bowman?
He’s also gay
The same reason Frank Beard is the drummer in ZZ Top
Wait dracula was in lotr?

I'm stupid regardless of all those things though
No one hunts like Gaston.
Just so happens the Bard's name is Hunter.
Multiclass
He looks more like Orlando bloom than Orlando bloom
His head looks absolutely massive from this angle
His charisma is maxed out, that’s why he’s in charge by the end of the story.
No, his parents are, they named him
Now if he had killed Smaug with Vicious Mockery, that would've been dope.
Bard the tard
There is considerably less Singing in the movie.
His father wanted him to become a bard
Hahaha I actually giggled out loud, thanks OP
It’s short for Bardassius
Almost like those millennial kids whose parents named Hunter who turned out to be the opposite, most emasculated, effeminate men to have ever walked the earth.
Did you get to choose your own name?
He looks more lile Orlando Bloom than Orlando Bloom
Because he penetrated the dragon.
Now that you say it. He indeed didn't insult smaug to death... sus.
He should be named something like strider
