    Crystal was.

    Bruno Kirby was in Godfather II. He introduced Don to crime.

    Rob Reiner a little sitcom called All
    In the Family
    Ever hear of Lavern and Shirley?

    I don’t consider Nicholson in A Few Good Men to be a cameo. He was a supporting actor.

    But if you do, Mike Myers in Almost Famous

    So I see Ron Jeremy, Tom Selleck, Meryl Streep (thought maybe it’s glen close), Della Reese, and it appears to be Hugh Laurie (in the red shirt in the back). Now that is some cameo action.

    Patrick Macnee, who played the record label owner, was a big star from movies and The Avengers.

    Howard Hesseman was on Wkrp.

    Though, it also had Dana Carvey, Fran Drescher, Ed Begley, Jr. and Angelica Houston in early roles of their careers. The casting director for the movie knew their stuff.

    More than that ...
    First meeting with his officers ("Who the fuck is Private William Santiago")
    Lunch with the JAG lawyers, Cruise and Demi Moore.
    The trial...there's three.

    Space movies: Chuck Yeager as an old guy drinking beer at the bar in "The Right Stuff," and Jim Lovell as the Navy captain on the aircraft carrier in "Apollo 13."

    Pitt's cameo in that movie was better, but Damon's explanation of butt wiping technique to Alan Tudyk was a very Deadpool kinda moment.

    Also, no Stan Lee yet? His cameo in Mallrats was great. The cameo referencing it in Captain Marvel was clever. My favorite of his was in Avengers: Age of Ultron. "Stop trying to scare us, blondie."

    'Nuff said.

    Lee Trevino's "Grizzly Adams did have a beard" one-liner was awesome, too.

    Another horror movie one, even if it came about six years too late and 10 years before they actually followed up on it: Freddy Krueger's glove popping out of the ground to pull Jason Voorhees' mask underground at the end of "Jason Goes to Hell" (Friday the 13th Part 9).

    A trio from a memorable scene in Point Break, when they screw up and raid the house of the wrong surfer gang.
    Anthony Kiedis is one of the surfers (although he actually has two scenes in this movie, his part is small enough to qualify as a cameo IMO).

    Tom Sizemore is the undercover FBI agent (Deets) whose work they destroy and who gives a speech I often quote in my head when someone is giving me a backhanded compliment:
    PAPPAS: Nice tattoo, Deets.
    DEETS: Oh, you like that Pappas? FUCK YOU!
    Or when I suddenly have a story crap out on deadline, especially one I've been working on for a while:
    DEETS: I've been working on these fuckers for THREE MONTHS! THREE MONTHS!



    And, finally, Julie Michaels is the naked chick with the spectacular breasts who kicks Keanu's ass in the shower. You might remember her better from her role as the blonde girl who gets topless in Road House.

    The cameo stuff. So two of the four main characters should not be considered.
