19. Matt F*cking Damon

Damn everyone who conspired to ruin the greatest cameo in the history of comic book movies, but if you were lucky enough to go into Thor: Ragnarok not knowing about Matt Damon playing Loki in an Asgardian theatrical production, you would have got one of the most jaw-dropping revelations in the genre.

Imagine a world where someone as big as Damon - and Sam Neill for that matter (Luke Hemsworth isn't really on the same level, but his appearance was still lovely) - turns up for a grand total of about two minutes for a cameo. He's one of the top billed actors currently working in Hollywood - it's ludicrous that he'd do that, which is the perfect testament to how huge the MCU is.

And kudos on all three for the perfect comedy timing.
