Questions for the Universe

Dead To Me
Spawning from a quick exchange between [info]eeknight and myself, I would like to ask the following question in which you, my lovely readers, get to play along:

If you were any movie extra in any movie ever, what one would you be?

I may think of more but I initially went with being a guy at the city gates when Conan comes running in.  My one line would be:  "Hey, wait!  You can't go in th....erk!"

I also think I'd enjoy being one of the stormtroopers beat down by Chewbacca, cuz Chewies gotta choke a bitch, and why not me?

A comedy. Cafeteria scene. I get the punch line.

All this just popped into my head. I have no idea where it came from!

I would like to be a zombie. Any zombie flick will do.

Would you die? And if so, how would it happen?

Well, I'd be one of Jack Sparrow's enemies! He stabs me in the chest with his sword, and I'd go backflipping off the ship and *splat* into the water!

Death by Depp is probably the best way to go. If not Depp then chocolate. :)

A flying monkey in the Wizard of Oz because they are pretty creepy and probably the most remembered aspect of the movie

One of the first wave of Orcs in LOTR because someone's gotta take the arrows

A stormtrooper but not because I want Chewbacca crushing my windpipe..

I'm sure there's more but that is all I got right now.

I'd like to be the stormtrooper whose suit gets taken when Han, Luke & Obi-wan crawl out of the Falcon smuggling compartments.

Also wouldn't mind being an extra on pretty much any scene in Firefly/Serenity...

Also would have loved running up and down sand dunes in a stillsuit in David Lynch's "Dune".

Yeah. Waaaaay too many movies here...

I'v thought of this alot and I would like to be an extra in a musical comedy. I'd want to be in all the dance scenes cuz I know we'd learn all sorts of cool moves, we'd get awesome costumes and we'd work with hot boys who can dance.........

I want to say Star Wars, absolutely, but I'm thinking Lord of the Rings. The scenery is better.

I would have been in Indiana Jones 4 as a college student, but I missed the try outs. So sad! I could totally have pulled off a believable college-girl-only-taking-archeology-because-of-Professor-Jones... (Because sadly, apparently no girls were actually interested in archeology in any of those movies. I could have been the first!)

Alas. And actually, I think they were only filming outdoor stuff here, so I would have just been a street extra, I suspect. Still, a girl can dream!

Good Question
I want to be in Star Wars as an ewok screaming some ewokese, but that's a given.

May be a Oompa Loompa from Willy Wonka since I'm short enough and thay sing catchy tunes.

I think I'll go with being one of the dancing vampire chicks from Dusk till Dawn.

One of my dad's old friends was an extra in the original Star Wars. As a stormtrooper.

Just sayin'... ;)

If I were to go with your Wookie beat down idea, I might pick the ATST driver that gets yanked out of the cockpit by Chewie on Endor. Mainly because my line would be 'Wuuuahhhh!' as I got flung to the ground.

My main choice would be from Army of Darkness. There's the scene after Ash kills the witch in the pit, and he's glowering at the townsfolk. "Who's next? Who wants some?" He then fakes like he's going to attack someone, notably a villager with a bowlcut that cowers a little at the fake. That's the extra I'd like to be.

Oh. And the... ahem... aforementioned guy with the strippers.

who would you be???
I may be way too late but I wouldwant to be in LOTR as one of the elves that accompany Arwen to the Havens, or one of the elves in Lothlorien.
Or one of the patrons in the bar in Star Wars...or on Jabba the Huts barge. God I could go on forever this is most dangerous.. I would have loved to be in Shaun of the Dead too. Oh wait does it count that I actually was in a really bad B movie.. Yep I am a person in the bar in the Crater Lake Monster.
