Bogans
Bogans is a 26-minute fan film, written by Peter Tait. It was released on DVD in 2003.
Plot[edit | edit source]
Three "Bogans", Greg, Ray and Luke, travel across New Zealand to meet Peter Jackson. Their goal is to be cast as extras in The Lord of the Rings.
They first travel to Wellington, where Peter Jackson was shooting the film series. After arriving, they decide to purchase The Lord of the Rings books because none of them actually know anything about it. When they open the first page, they discover that Hobbits live in holes, which gives them the idea to dig a hole to sleep in. They decided to do this in the yard of Peter Jackson, but later realize that they have the wrong Peter.
In a strange turn of fate, two of the actors actually ended up in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King: Ian Hughes played Irolas, and Peter Tait was Shagrat.
