What are your favorite cameo appearances?

A few of mine:
Danny Glover in Maverick. That "don't I know you?" moment.

Huey Lewis in Back To The Future. "Sorry kid, you're just too loud."

Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy in Coming To America. So we know what happened to the Dukes.

I'm always rather amused by Spielberg's cameo in Blues Brothers.

But the best cameo in film history belongs to Bob Saget in Half Baked. Funniest...line...ever.

Joidie Foster in the Xfiles (never again, she is the voice of the tatoo )

and yes .. the opening and ending of AP:Goldmember (including a flip flopping Steven Spielberg) is priceless and makes you want THIS to be the movie ..

Spielberg in Vanilla Sky was boring / throw away ...

This is my favorite also. Has to be the best cameo ever IMO.

Also, Gene Hackman in The Mexican. Not a great movie, but his scene elevates it.

Brendan Fraser in Brain Candy.

And my personal favorite, among many in this film, is Julia Roberts at the climax of The Player.
