[edit] Summary

A screenshot from Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, an adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, depicting a character Legolas.

Rationale for the fair use of this image in Legolas and Elves in fantasy fiction and games:

The image is used to demonstrate the film's distinctive graphical style
The image is being used in an informative way and should not detract from the film
The image does not limit New Line Cinema's ability to sell or show the film
Inclusion of the image into the articles adds significally to the understanding of the topic

[edit] Licensing

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted film, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by the studio which produced the film, and possibly also by any actors appearing in the screenshot. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots

for identification and critical commentary on the film and its contents
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
