Re: Actors who are in tons of movies, but youve never heard their name
One guy I thought of is Miguel Sandoval. Of the three things I really remember him being in (Clear and Present Danger, Get Shorty, and the NBC flop "Kingpin"), he plays a drug dealer. Talk about a stereotype. He was in an episode of "Law and Order," where he played a college professor. Apparently he's also been in a bunch of TV shows. I think the same can be said for Joaquim de Almeida, (being stereotyped as a drug dealer...he was also in "Kingpin" and Clear and Present Danger) but since his appearance on 24, I think more people know who he is.
I've heard that Miguel Sandoval runs a Hispanic casting agency out of Santa Fe, New Mexico...he cherry-picks the good roles for himself and lets the others get the dregs. ScottieK

Re: Actors who are in tons of movies, but youve never heard their name
Mike Starr - he's been in everything. Doesn't even have a pic at IMDB but has 137 movie and TV credits listed. I only know who he is because I saw him the other day in NYC and had to try and figure out his name. He's been in CSI NY, Goodfellas, Ed Wood, Scrubs, The Money Pit, The Last Dragon (earliest movie I remember seeing him in) and a whole slew of others.

I think John C Riley has played the most supporting actor roles I know, yet has never played the main character.

Re: Actors who are in tons of movies, but youve never heard their name
Miguel Sandoval also guest-starred on Seinfeld as the owner of a bodega that runs cockfights in the back, so he's broken through the stereotypes.... oh wait.
I always remember him in Clear and Present Danger: "They're stealing my money!"
