Would you like to have been an extra in the 3 LOTR films ? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I would love to have been one of those people who were trampled by Gandalf and Shadowfax... Unfortunately, I would most likely be caught on the saddle or clipped.

Either that, or be one of the million odd elves who make Elrond's home look habitable in his worst and usual moods.

Just any part that calls for odd people.

not sure if this counts... i would have liked to have been the voice of one of the ents at entmoot... and if not a hobbit in hobbiton no doubt

I would have loved to be an elf in Rivendell at the departure of the Fellowship, or a child in the caves of Helm's Deep.

If I caould've been an extra in the movies I'd have liked to be an elf or a hobbit. The hobbits seem to have such a good time! Apart from Frodo and chums, of course! Ever since I first saw THE FELLOWSHIP I wanted that cake at Bilbo's party. Did you see the size of it?! I'd like a cake as big as me just like that one for my eleventy-first birthday!

I'd like to be a Rivendell elf, rather than a blondie elf from LothLorien or Mirkwood, simply because I had long blonde hair last year and now it's short and brown and I want to look like Arwen!

I would have loved it if I had been an extra in one of the movies. I probably would've wanted to be in the battle for Pelinor fields. I love the Ride of the Rohirrim!

I don't know. I think it would have been cool to be an extra, but some of the things they had to do, standing around for hours and hours... and it seems like such a thankless job. Plus I would have had to fly to New Zealand and I don't much like flying. So, as sad as it is, I probebly would rather have stayed here and just watched the movie.

If I was to be an extra though, I think it would have been best to be a hobbit at Bilbo's party. Lots of food, music, getting to be near Elijah Wood... The last place I would have liked to be an extra would be at Helms Deep. From what I've seen from the DVD's, it didn't look like much fun!

Of course, if someone had actually come up to me and offered to pay to take me to New Zealand to be an extra, I probebly would not have said no, but I probebly wouldn't have had that much fun.

Woot!
