As I watch BACK TO SCHOOL for the 113th time, you get a Robert Downey Jr. , not totally obscure, but a Kevin Bacon in Animal House is a good one.

Already know I have the most osbcure of obscure, but willing to listen

You beat me to the punch. I've been working on a list of crazy cameos I was going to debut this weekend. I guess I have to step my game up. And whatever obscure cameo you're thinking of, I can top it with the most insane, obscure, and awesome cameo ever caught on film.

That's barbershop 1. I was in 2.

And you don't get IMDB credit until you get a speaking role for the most part.

So little to name and so much time to name them. Strike that, reverse it! Just a bit of Willy Wonka love to get the post started.

Steven Spielberg eating a sandwich and working for Cook County in Blues Bros.
Samuel L Jackson as Stacks in Goodfellas, as the Organ Player in Kill Bill, as the proprietor of the arcade/pool hall in Juice.
Dave Chappelle falling from a plane in Con Air. He had a message.
Al Bundy working the counter at Mikita's Donuts in Wayne's World. He ripped a man's still beating heart out.
Chris Farley as security in Wayne's World, letting the boys know Mr. Bigg's precise location.
Katie Couric as prison guard in Goldmember.
Otis Wilson as a prison guard in The Fugitive.
Roberto Duran as a sparring partner for Rocky in Rocky II.
Sylvester Stallone (who also directed) bumping into Travolta on the street in Stayin Alive.
John Travolta & The Greatest American Hero in Carrie.
William H. Macy & Chazz Palmenterri in The Last Dragon. Macy worked on the dance show and Palmenterri was one of Eddie Arkadian's henchmen.
Rudy & Cockroach from The Cosby Show also in The Last Dragon. Rudy was Bruce Leroy's little sister while Cockroach was a friend of Leroy's younger brother.
Mario Lopez, AKA Slater from Saved By The Bell as a 2-1 in Colors. He took part in the shootout with Rocket (Don Cheadle) and the Crips.
Billy Zane in Back To The Future 1 & 2, played Biff's lackey along with Jerry Mitchell from 3 o'clock High.
Elijah Wood in Back To The Future 2 as one of the little kids in the 80's Cafe who can't figure out the arcade game.
Jason Scott Lee (who went on to play Bruce Lee) as one of Griff's lackeys in Back To The Future 2.
Dan Aykroyd as Ghostbuster Ray Stantz, Clint Eastwood and Mel Gibson as themselves in Casper.
Danny Glover and Corey Feldman robbing a bank in Maverick. The Lethal Weapon music can be heard and Gibson pulls down Glovers bandanna to share a look.
Tobey Maguire as the hitchhiker in Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas.
Clancy Brown as Viking in Bad Boys. (The Sean Penn version)
Adrien Brody & Matthew McConaughey as baseball players in Angels In The Outfield.
Matthew McConaughey & Renee Zellwegger in Texas Chainsaw Massacre The New Generation.
Jack Black in Airborne as a roller blading hockey goaile who lives in Cincinnati.
Keanu Reeves as Heaver the hockey goalie in Youngblood.
Dick Butkus in Hamburger The Motion Picture. Please tell me I'm not the only one to have seen this.
Louie Anderson working the phones in Quicksilver, and training Akeem & Semi at McDowells in Coming To America.
Charlie Sheen & Jeremy Piven as high school football players in Lucas.
Wesley Snipes & Woody Harrelson as high school football players in Wildcats.
Michael Clarke Duncan playing craps with Deebo in Friday when Red got knocked the phuck out.
Sharon Stone as Steven Seagal's wife in Above The Law, and Sharon Stone again as Arnold's wife in Total Recall.
Johnny Depp as Nancy's boyfriend in Nightmare On Elm St. He was sucked into the bed. Not a fun way to go out.
Brad Pitt as a detective in Cool World.
The Three Stooges (though it's Moe, Larry & Curly Joe) as firemen in It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.
Jerry Lewis as himself fending off the unwanted advances of one Rupert Pupkin in The King of Comedy.
John Candy as the midwestern polka king in Home Alone. He's very big in Sheboygan.

And the absolute greatest cameo/obscure role to ever be captured on film.....

Dig if you will a beachfront. The crowd has gathered and the performers are putting on a display of dancing. All the dancers bring their A game, yet they're about to be upstaged by a Belgium national treasure who's had no formal training whatsoever. How is this possible you ask, well anything is possible when you're the man who was originally in the Predator suit. Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you, the man, the myth, the legend....It's the Muscles From Brussels, Jean Claude Van Damme in the 80's cult classic Breakin. Now think about that for a second. Jean Claude Van Damme is in the movie Breakin! This isn't Breakin 2 Electric Boogaloo, though had Van Damme been in that production, he could have single handedly saved Miracles all by himself. This is Breakin, the one they started it all.

JCVD appearing in Breakin simultaneously makes absolutely no sense and all the sense in the world. Yes, it's that type of paradox. One that Doc Brown couldn't even wrap his sizable head around. So please, for humanity's sake, watch this clip. Much like spending five to ten minutes with Tim Tebow, you'll be a better person for having done so.

There was nothing obscure about Sharon Stone showing her boobies in Total Recall. A young good dolphin saw it in the theatre but put it into his spank bank for later.

Jeremy Piven playing a Nantucket snob in One Crazy Summer.

Harry Tienowitz doing whatever the hell he does in Up The Academy
