I just got back from being an extra


I just got back from being an extra in this movie! OMG it was soooo fun....I got to meet Sean Astin and I got my picture taken with him. I also got to meet Michael. He had to go do a scene before he could take a picture with me, but he apologized and promised me one tomorrow! It was really sweet....well anyways.......yeah

I was there as well. I was wearing a grey polo shirt with navy blue stripes. I didnt get to hang out with any of the guys today, but I got a pic with the director David Evans and my cousin got a pic with Mike last Saturday. Everyone has been really cool and really friendly. I wanted to get a pic with Rachael, but she left right after she was done with her shots.

I have been an extra there for 12 days and was at the copter crash. I got Sean's autograph 5 times, Michael's 3 times, Makenzie's twice and most of the rest of the cast at least once. I got u Smallfry. Try 2 beat that.

May the force be with you.

its not a contest to see who can get the autograph the most. and whats *beep* about that is i know people that couldnt get ONE autograph cause all the other people crowding and hounding. i was waiting behind people who said things like "yeah i've already had him sign a book, a dvd, a hat, and i've gotten like 6 pictures with him" that seems just wierd and annoying when other people had to try like hell to get just one.

reply

Sorry everyone. I do apologize. We've had a problem with several trolls, following me around and posting anywhere I've posted before. Including on my forum too. Just ignore him and any other trolls that come posting things concerning me that is like this. But once again I do apologize for their actions. It is un-professional and I'm sure you know how it goes with messageboard trolls.

Thanks!
Matthew

P.S. Yes I've seen the finished cut of the "The Final Season".. and Yes it is very good. I'm sure everyone will like it.

I was an extra too, I didn't get any autographs or anything but I loved it and the scene I was in I am pretty sure will be in the movie.

reply

I was originally going to be an extra in the crowd, but they picked me out to be a batboy.

reply

What team were you a batboy for? We only had 3 batboys the whole film that I'm aware of (I worked in wardrobe) - 2 were Jim vanScoyoc's grandsons and the third was David Mickey Evans' son.

reply

(Sorry for the incredibly late response. What, like, 9 months?)

I was the batboy for the Trojans.

did you have a good time on the set?

reply

Yeah, it was pretty cool to see how a movie is actually filmed. It was fun even though only my hand is showing in the final copy.
