* For me it was the backstage occurrence with Sam and at his wedding, but Sean Astin can't quite get it right when it comes to kissing the bride. Viggo Mortinson and Billy Boyd watch nearby to cheer them on, and to motivate them, Viggo [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8XZ6KxE30I plants one on Billy]].

* No, I'm sorry, there is nothing--NOTHING--funnier in the world than [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yd8jfzN5OkI Dom Monaghan's prank interview on Elijah Wood, where he pretends to be a ridiculous German interviewer asking him increasingly inane questions. This troper positively cries with laughter ''every single time.''

During the Battle of Isengard when the water is dousing the fires, there is a wide shot of the scene. Look in the bottom left corner of the shot. There is an Ent dousing the fire on his head. I don't know why, but this particular scene always has me in stitches.

*** That was shot in a different take. In the take where we see Sam and Rosey they weren't in front of a crowd of hobbit actors, but a camera crew and few actors with free time in their hands, including Viggo and Billy.

\n\n* Aragorn gets one in the Return of the King, and Merry asks him for pipeweed, Aragorn says he will need to ask the Herb Master at the Houses of Healing saying "he will tell you that he did not know that the herb desire had any virtues, but it is called westmansweed by the vulgar, and galenas by the noble, and other names in other tongues more learned, and after adding a few half-forgotten rhymes that he does not understand, he will regretfully inform you that there is none in the House, and he will leave you to reflect on the history of tongues." The Herb Master had of course just done this to Aragorn, who needed a herb to save dying patients.
