LotR easter eggs

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, The - MTV LoTR Parody
Using Disk One Of The 4-Disk Special Extended DVD Edition (Not the 2-Disk Set). Go to "Select a Scene" and go to the very last scene on the selection which should be #27 "The Council of Elrond". Press Down Once and you should see a little ring next to "New Scene". Select it and Peter Jackson should come on telling you that you've stumbled across a surprise. Which is the MTV parody done at the last MTV Movie Awards with Jack Black and Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Special Requirements:
Special Extended DVD Edition

Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers - Gollum at Helms Deep
In the movie, during the battle of Helm's Deep when the Uruk-hai are trying to break down the door of the fortress with a battering ram (the first door), you'll see the close up of a human soldier throwing a spear from the top of the wall witch hits one of the Uruk-hai. That soldier is actor Andy Serkis who plays sneaky creature Gollum in the movie. Because Gollum is computer generated character and Andy Serkis's real face is never seen in the movie, I guess Serkis or Peter Jackson (movie director) wanted to have him in a human form at least in one shot, or they thought it would be cool for those who knew how Andy Serkis actually look’s like.
I saw this in the extended version but that does not mean it isn’t in the original one.
Please check.

Extended version ???
