fine, i was more than just an extra on powertool 2. i just said that because i didn't want you guys to think i had a big head.
all true ... but, dead batteries.
My first car was in Diner, the door of my hotel was in The Accidental Tourist, my brother-in-law's house was in Polyester and the back of my head was in Powertools 2.
I dogsit for the dog in Vanilla Sky.
Beat that, bitches.
My favorite extra tidbit is that a friend of mine danced with Dolly Parton in a scene in "Steel Magnolias."
Elvis Feinstein of Hoboken.
You can see me in Evening Star (sequel to Terms of Endearment) in the TV Studio scene. I'm behind the TV cameras in a baseball cap in glasses during the applause next to a girl in a director's chair. You can also catch a glimpse of Jonathan Couette (of Tarnation fame) as a makeup artist in the same scene.

When I was in High school I was in the bank robbery scenes of the film Wisdom with Emilio Estevez and Demi Moore. I have also done Nightmare on Elm Street 3, Chatanooga Choo Choo (don't ask)Jeffrey, and did clean-up vocals for Disney's Beauty and the Beast and Chicago. Currently though - I am working on producing my first short film, which is taking up a lot of time.
I was Efrem Levi in HELLO, DOLLY!, with Barbra Streisand.
I haven't had a chance to watch it yet, but my name should be in the credits of Clerks II as well.
My parents went to a taping of "Cheers" and you can hear my dad's laugh pretty distinctly at one point.
My dad is an extra in the movies Steel, he was one of the paramedics who went to help the man who fell from the building. (sadly, the stunt man who did that fall died from it and the scene in the movie is really of his death- his family allowed it to be included)
That sounds like an urban legend, KelRel. Not to call you a liar, but it does.
My cousin was an extra in American Pie.
My name appears at the end of the credits on the Clerks II DVD. I had to pause it and look, but it's there. (along with 9,999 others.)
Me too!
SM2, you're right it does, but my parents went to the funeral.
I meant the part about his parents allowing the footage of his death to remain in the final cut.

How is everyone's names in the Clerks II credits? That's pretty cool.
My friend was a waterboy or something in We Are Marshall (just found this out today actually)
Dumb and Dumberer was filmed at my old high school, so some people I know are in that.
And not a movie, but someone that went to my high school is on Real World right now.
I was an extra in Seabiscuit and a guy I teach with was an extra in Elizabethtown.
How do you become an extra? Are there any websites?
I have a lot, but the most recent was probably when my friend and a couple other people were extra students in WE ARE MARSHALL.
A family friend is one of the bridesmaids at the beginning of The Godfather.

Ooooh JohnBoy2, I had a cousin who was an extra in Hello Dolly, though she said you really couldn't see her because it was the big crowd scene in the parade number.
