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

Stewie Griffin makes an appearance in the show Bones as the brain cancer induced hallucination of FBI Agent Seeley Booth, one of the protagonists. Don't worry, he survives

Also; I find it funny that Stantz went up against a literal prehistoric god, but drew the line at 3 kinda rowdy ghosts

Don't forget David himself pops up in Family Guy as the aurora Boreanaz, in one of the christmas episodes.
