Best Movie Cameos

[Winter Hugohalter]

The one that pops into my mind is in "Coming To America" with Ralph Bellamy and Don Ameche as the Duke brothers from "Trading Places" now living on the street after being rendered penniless by Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd.

Would Christopher Walkens' great scene in "Pulp Fiction" be considered a cameo?

How could you mention "Trading Places" without mentioning Bo Diddley's cameo as the pawn shop owner? :D

"This is a $5000 watch!"

"But in here, it's worth 50 bucks"

Frank Zappa in Head.
Keith's appearance in the Pirates movie almost qualifies as a cameo.

Do the disguised stars in The List of Adrian Messenger count?

[thxdave]

Marshall McLuhan in "Annie Hall". Classic walk-on with a moment that we ALL wish we could pull out of our butts when needed.

Marcel Marceau in Mel Brook's "Silent Movie". He had the Only speaking part in the whole movie!! ........ "No".

The best unintentionally funny one was John Wayne as a Roman centurion in The Greatest Story Ever Told: "Truly, he WUZ the Son of Gawd!" :laugh:

[The Wanderer]

Bruce Willis in "Nancy Drew".

[stumpy]

Alfred Hitchcock popping up in most (if not all) of his movies. Just caught him last week at a bar getting a quick drink as Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman walked into a scene in "Notorious".

Not a movie, but Johnny Carson on an episode of "Get Smart".

No, I think it DOES qualify as a cameo...

One pick: Gene Hackman in "Young Frankenstein"...

[Edwin Hawley]

Lance Bass in I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry.

[Robert Campion]

Peter O'Toole / Casino Royale (Oops. Now there are two Casino Royales. Okay the BETTER Casino Royale!)

You're probably gonna get a lot of argument about that. I'd call the 2006 "CR" the better one - by a LOT - but you obviously mean the 1967 version. I definitely wouldn't call that the "better" take on "CR" - I think it's sporadically entertaining at best...

[Bahax]

Peter Falk in "Wings Of Desire".
Falk is in multiple scenes in that movie, he's actually a major character.

[jligon]

David Letterman in Cabin Boy.
