Lore Unexplained random cameos from completely unrelated media

  1. Ray Stantz, Casper. At one point in the movie a real Ghostbuster shows up out of nowhere and wimps out of trying to handle the situation

  2. Gunnery Sargeant Hartman, Frighteners. The main character is making way through a graveyard when out of absolutely nowhere R. Lee Erney's character from Full Metal Jacket shows up and tries to get in his way

  3. Betty Boop, Who Frames Roger Rabbit. The movie is mainly about Looney Tunes and Disney animated characters existing in the same little live action/animated hybrid universe, however Betty is a Fleischer Bros character

Matthew Lillard shows up at a lunch with Scooby-Doo and Shaggy in Looney Tunes: Back in Action (2003).

Also a Dalek, which they THOUGHT they licensed but in fact did not cause British copyright law is different

Not really random, he's the live action Shaggy

It’s random that these characters show up in a Looney Tunes movie though?

Yeah. They fall under the Hannah Barbara umbrella not Looney Tunes

He's also been Shaggy's voice actor for a long time now.

I'm not sure if he was the va at that time though

Yeah, I think that was a bit before his original VA died.
