Bob Saget in Half Baked
Even though it wasn't so much a character bit as a brief cameo.

I think a lot of people are confusing "minor characters" with "supporting characters." A minor character is one who only makes one or two brief (but usually important/awesome) appearances. Examples: Walken or Keitel in Pulp Fiction, Jesus in Big Lebowski. Someone who is present throughout the film but not the "main" character, e.g., Reed Rothchild in Boogie Nights or Brick in Anchorman, is a supporting character, not a minor one.

WTF? This compared to the PF Walken is horrendous.

Did PF Walken stab someone with a trident? Did he put mayonnaise in the toaster? I DIDN'T THINK SO.

Did he carry a watch in his [censored] ass? IDUNTHINKSO

Considered him, but not nearly minor enough.
