      I doubt if you could hit a cow's arse with a banjo!!

      Shooting fish in a barrel I "get" but who would want to hit a cow's arse with a banjo??

        I knew a lot of LotR was filmed in NZ; but are those places where they actually filmed the indicated scenes? That's amazing.

          Apparently, it cost a small fortune to fly all the stars out there for filming. However, they more than recouped their outlay through the savings they made in make-up and Costuming by simply employing the locals as the Orc hordes.

            I believe that the Orc hordes were in fact computer generated based on a template of English cricket fans at the matches in Australia.

              Cows arse - Big and round.

              Banjo - Big and round.

              Therefore the chances of missing said cows arse with a banjo are pretty slim - unless of course you're MarillionFan.
