19 Awesome Movie Cameos Nobody Saw Coming

9. Liam Neeson - Ted 2

Though Ted 2 was an unbearably low-effort sequel, it did boast one outstanding scene featuring Liam Neeson as a nervous man attempting to buy a box of Trix cereal at Ted's (Seth MacFarlane) store, who asks Ted whether or not Trix are exclusively for kids (as per the commercial's slogan).

Ted calms his fears and the man purchases the cereal, but the real kicker comes in a post-credits follow-up, where Neeson's character returns to the store, beaten and bloodied, clutching the box of Trix, which he angrily returns before leaving.

Neeson's straight-faced approach to the scene, and the sheer absurdity of him appearing in a movie like this, only makes it that much funnier.
