The point of Star Trek is not what happened in the 60's - but that it came BACK in the 80's! And the 80's was not reactionary.
Legolas has pointy ears for the same reason that the elf pic in Wiz 8 have pointy ears - elves always do. He is blonde because all the elves in the movie are blonde - which makes them different from the orcs. My point was that the Hobbits had pointy ears - and that wasn't in the book. IMHO is that "pointy ears" represent the fay, the nonconforming, the "stranger in a strange land" the way Spock was. And that gives me hope.
