He was in THAT?

[Guest Jacob]

Kind of a backwards He was in THAT? here but Amaury Nalsaco appeared in Chase the other night. Kind of surprising to me given the fact i thought he was on the brink of Hollywood stardom.

John C. McGinley (or, if you must, Dr. Cox) was also in Wagon's East, one of John Candy's final films. It was a western parody.

The point? He's a talented character actor, so he deservedly gets lots of work in a wide variety of things.

[Damian WayLNKe]

Shia LaBeouf in Dumb and Dumberer.

He was also the gay cop in Wild Hogs.

[LL!]

That was already mentioned, bud.

[MalaCloudy Black]

John McGinley was the main villain in the film adaptation of Sole Survivor.

[Benji]

Bet you guys didn't know he was in Scrubs.

[Colly]

Can we close the thread now?

Doesn't seem to list his time playing for Bolton in the 90's though?

[MDK]

The most recent one of these for me, mostly because I knew nothing about the film in question, was Tom Waits showing up in Book Of Eli.

And The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus as The Devil, I think.

[MalaCloudy Black]

You're right.

Tom Waits had an awesome role in Wristcutters: A Love Story as well.

[Skummy]

Yeah, but I bought Wristcutters on the strength of Tom Waits being in it, and him as the devil was a huge selling point personally for Imaginarium - I'm a big fan of his acting, so it wasn't like a "holy shit, it's Tom Waits in a film" moment, it was just that I had no idea he was in that particular film. I'd never even heard of it before the day we watched it, and him showing up was just a little surreal.

After only recently finding out "the sad guy from that episode of Friends" was actually called Jon Lovitz, I noticed him a few weeks ago in Little Nicky, and then yesterday he happens to be in Big.

I also see Casey Sander in everything, who's name I've just had to look up so I didn't have to refer to him as "Tucker's Uncle".

[LittleDaniel]

Jon Lovitz is, unfortunately, in many things.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

Seth Rogen being in Anchorman. Didn't notice until the 4th/5th time I watched it. It's a good job I love Anchorman, or Seth Rogen would put me off ever watching it again.

And Zac Effron playing a young Simon Tam in Firefly.

Finally, Chris Cooper in just about every film ever made.

[Colly]

Jon Lovitz is, unfortunately, in many things.

And while we're on it, Jon Lovitz, Joe Mantegna and Phil Hartman in the same scene in the Three Amigos. Never noticed that while I was 10...

Also, El Guapo's sidekick played Santi's dad in ace Newcastle United movie Goal!

[reyrey619]

I had one of these moments when I watched Dan in Real Life recently and noticed that the cop that pulls Steve Carell over is Will Schuester from Glee.

I caught part of Tombstone a few months ago and I hadn't seen in since before I watched Lost. Totally didn't recognize Locke as the guy from that for the entire time I watched the series.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Was watching Branagh's "Much Ado About Nothing" a few months ago and discovered that Robert Sean Leonard (from House) was in it.

(as well as Branagh, Denzel Washington, Kate Beckinsale, Emma Thompson, Michael Keaton and Keanu Reeves)

John Locke is John C McGinlay all over again, he's been in everything...
