10 Things I Hate About You
Extra Fail: When the coach is accidentally shot with an arrow (at 7.30 in the clip), one girl is sent to get medical help… but after running for a short while, she just stops and turns around, assuming she is out of shot.
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Lady: Not committed to the role. You have to give 110% in this business and she's giving 15-16% tops.
Star Trek Generations
Extra Fail: When the Enterprise defeats the Klingon bird of prey, a newly emoted Data punches the air in triumph, which would have had more of an impact if the extra behind him didn’t do the same thing a split-second before.
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Man: Constantly tries to steal the scene and undermine his fellow co-stars. Actually, he'd probably do quite well in Hollywood.
Braveheart
Extra Fail: Following the film’s epic bloody battle, two opposing fighters can be seen in the background just half-heartedly clanging swords together before giving up.
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Men: These guys can't do anything unless specifically choreographed for them. They probably appear as extras in other films, just lazily walking down the street before giving up and stopping.
Jaws #2
Extra Fail: A whaaaaat?
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Man: Unless he was voicing a lovable cartoon animal, he'd probably have to be dubbed in every scene.
Enter The Dragon
Extra Fail: As Bruce Lee delivers a formidable triple kick to his opponent's face (at 2.20 in this clip), one of the extras inexplicably bursts into laughter.
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Man: Inappropriate sense of humour. Casting him in a horror film would be a disaster.
North By Northwest
Extra Fail: Knowing what’s coming next, this kid plugs his fingers in his ears in preparation of the ‘surprise’ gunshot.
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Man : Sensitive hearing. If he didn't like the loud gunshot, let's hope this kid never worked on a Michael Bay film.
Star Wars
Extra Fail: The most famous extra – nay, the most famous GOOF – in movie history. Isn’t this guy a little tall for a stormtrooper?
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Man: Too clumsy. It would be like working with Frank Spencer.
Teen Wolf
Extra Fail: Often mistaken to be a male extra flashing his genitalia, the widescreen version revealed the extra to actually be a woman. Which still doesn’t make this behaviour acceptable.
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Lady: If she thinks it's ok to be on camera with her jeans undone to this extent, she's going to have a lot of clashes with the wardrobe department. Imagine if she ever worked on a costume drama. It's unthinkable.
Back to the Future III
Extra Fail: Doc Brown’s kid Verne beckons YOU the audience to come closer and inspect his groin in the creepiest way possible.
Why They'll Never Make A Leading Man: Apparently this kid was signalling that he needed the loo, but really he should have gone before filming started. There's no time in this business for weak bladders.
