10 More Greatest Movie Extra Performances Ever

4. Batman, Yeah! - Batman Forever

That stumbling Dark Knight Rises background performer wasn't the first extra to make a noticeable impact during a Bat-film.

Back during the far more cartoonish era of Dark Knight pictures, Joel Schumacher's Batman Forever included a scene which involved Batman crashing through the ceiling before hunting down Two-Face.

And while that may initially sound like your average moment of Caped Crusader crime-fighting, one side-splitting extra ensured that this specific Bat arrival would never be forgotten.

In the seconds before slo-mo Batman touches down on the floor, one care-free party guest can be found pointing up to the sky and letting out an exuberant "BATMAN - YEAAAAAH!"

That drunken wonder in this extra's voice as Val Kilmer's superhero slowly dropped out of the sky, combined with the hilariously dramatic stare Nicole Kidman's Dr. Chase Meridian shoots the badass Bat as the guest's arm remains awkwardly aimed at his favourite hero, makes for one of the most glorious pieces of silly '90s action you'll find in the otherwise quite disappointing flick.

After catching this wonderful moment of strangeness for the first time, you'll likely struggle sitting through your next viewing of Batman Forever without letting out your own "RANDOM PARTY EXTRA - YEEEEAAAH!" during his shot-stealing performance.
