White Tree Favourite cameos

Do you have a favourite cameo? I think out of all the cameos in the films, the one I like the best is Royd Tolkien as a ranger.

Viggo Mortensen's son played the first orc he (Viggo) killed in the Battle of the Pellenor Fields. This was the same boy that persuaded his father to do the picture in the first place.

Christian Rivers as one of the Gondorian soldiers who was *supposed* to be guarding the beacon at Minas Tirith, just because I was so excited that I knew who he was.

The first one with PJ as some random guy holding a carrot. I think it was funny because it was a dark, gloomy shot of the streets of Bree and then it's like oh look, it's a bright orange carrot... It stood out a ton and made me laugh If the carrot wasn't there it wouldn't have been as memorable.

For some inexplicable reason, I'm a big fan of members of the crew whom you see in the EE documentaries making cameos in the films. I especially like Gino Acevedo - he does the best personal impressions! For example, the one of the Russian digital artist who trained him up on the computer or of Peter Jackson. I thought putting him in the Corsair ships scene, which was just teeming with cameos (including one by Andrew Lesnie, another favourite), was just brilliant.
