Ok, who remembers this scene?:
That's right! It's the fireworks scene from the Fellowship of the Ring, and what a fantastic scene to watch. What's pretty great about this scene is the the scream that Pippin (Billy Boyd) let's out as the firework goes off. It turns out that the scream was unscripted. While they were shooting, Billy assumed that after Dominic and himself finished their dialog that the firework was just going to be raised up by a string and out of frame. While that is partially what happened, he was unaware there was also actually going to be a mini explosion.
So when the firework explodes, Billy's natural reaction was to scream (wouldn't yours?). Apparently Peter Jackson liked it so much that he kept it for the film.
Here is the scene for you to hear it!
"I just got such a fright, and Dom just gave me abuse for it all day."- Billy Boyd
