Anyway, I tried really really really hard this time to see the subtext between--well, anyone. Really hard. And I didn't see it. I looked at anything that might be slashy and I just didn't see it that way.

Even the, "You're late. You look terrible" followed by the oh-so-meaningful return of the Evenstar and the manly shoulder-squeezing didn't ping?

Huh.

'Cause I didn't see any slash in FotR, but TTT had some nice slashy moments. *g*

Nope, no ping there and that was one of the moments I really looked at because I know it's a scene that people say is very slashy.

My memory is fuzzy about excatly when but at some point in Lord of the Rings Aragorn tells Legolas "you're late" or something similar to that. So Legolas was just throwing the line back at him.

And as for the meaningful return of the Evenstar. Legolas knew what it meant to Aragorn and he kept it safe for him and then returned it to him. Not as token of his affection but becuase it was Arwen's to Aragorn.

I just don't see any slashy at all in the movie. I've tried, honestly, but I don't. Especially not between Frodo and Sam. I can't see their relationship that way, knowing what I do from the books.

Ah well, you don't see it, you don't see it.

I'm still upset they've cut all the lovely Legolas/Gimli subtext from the books out of the movies.
