Would you like to have been an extra in the 3 LOTR films ?

If you had the opportunity to have been an extra (not a lead role, or major supporting role) in any (or all) of the 3 LOTR films recently made, what particular favorite scene/s in the film/s would you most want to have been an extra in and why ?

Hell ya! being an extra in any spot wouldve been cool but probably being a rohan warrior at helms deep wouldve been cool. but if i lived in new zealand i wouldve gone out for all of them. maybe if they remake in the future they'll film it in Canada...

While watching the extra behind the sceans stuff on all any/all of the Lord of the Rings films I always tell my g/f... I wish I had been able to have been an extra! I don't care where they put me or what they make me, I just wish I had been a part of that film! But, theres always Hobbit right...... right.....?

Gollum

I would have given almost anything to have been able to be a Rider of Rohan - oh, MAN I wish I could have had that opportunity! To be in that charge, or running around with Eomer (should have been Erkenbrand) el al, oh, what a daydream...

Who wouldn't have???? Oh man, that would be so cool! I would probably go for an archer or something, because I like archery and I practice almost every day, but a swordfighting role would be cool too. Just being ON THE SET would be enought for me, even if I was just the coffee-and-donuts girl.

I would like to have been Gloin. A cameo role, who still had a fairly detailed background.
