Best Cameo in a movie..

[blackdogdeek]

I thought Johnny Depp and Peter DeLuise showing up in 21 Jump Street was great.

Gene Hackman, 'Young Frankenstein'

Keith Richards, 'Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End'

Mike Tyson, 'The Hangover'

Christopher Walken in Pulp Fiction

Chuck Norris from Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story


A few of my favorites, not all ready mentioned.


Kurt Vonnegut in Back to School – When the wealthy Thornton Melon goes to college, he hires noted author Kurt Vonnegut to write a paper about…Kurt Vonnegut. Unfortunately, the paper gets a failing grade, and, according to the professor, “Whoever did write it doesn’t know the first thing about Kurt Vonnegut.” This leads to Melon giving the writer an earful over the phone and threatening to call Robert Ludlum the next time he needs a paper written.

Eh, who (that saw the TV series) didn't expect that though?

 

[SphinxnihpS]

Crispin Glover as Jingle Dale in Wild at Heart

Iggy Pop, and Billy Bob Thornton, and Jared Harris in Dead Man

 

[TheEnd]

What is this??!!!!!

No mention of Sean Connery as Richard the Lionheart in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves? For shame.

Does Samuel L Jackson's part in Deep Blue Sea count as a cameo? Best thing about that movie was his scenes (wont mention it as it will ruin the surprise if you haven't seen it). Okay maybe one of the best things other than Saffron Burrows stripping down to her underwear. Movie sucked otherwise.

Sometimes a cameo appearance can make any movie so much more entertaining, who is your favorite? what film?..Mine is "The luggage salesman" in "Joe vs the Volcano" played by Barry McGovern, post your favorite cameo's here!.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ljOj6GVcnQ

How is that a cameo?

I suppose, technically ... any small part can be a cameo. But I expect the person to either play themselves or for there to be some type of irony in their appearance in the specific role or movie.

Yea, Walken's "up my ass" speech to the young butch is so insanely LOL because he delivers it in such a serious manner, great flick, one of the best.

 

[JulesMaximus]

I don't think it is the best by any means, but I remember Joe Walsh in the Blues Brothers.
1:23, he is the first prisoner to jump up.
