5 DJ AM in Iron Man 2

Tony Stark (played by Robert Downey Jr.) doubles as superhero Iron Man, and in the sequel film released in 2010, he finds himself facing his friend Lt. Rhodey who breaks up a party to fight him. And when a man in a giant metal robot suit tells you to get out, you leave.

While the rest of the party scatters, the house party DJ remains stuck behind his booth. As it turns out, the party must've been quite the place to be that night as the late DJ AM appears from behind his laptop when Stark requests a song. As demanded, he appropriately plays a mash-up of 'Another One Bites the Dust', Daft Punk's 'Robot Rock' and 'It Takes Two' as they battle it out.

6 Cut Chemist in Juno

Lucas MacFadden, better known as Cut Chemist, is mostly famous for his stint in Jurassic 5 or through his solo career as a producer.

The more observant of fans might have caught his cameo appearance in 2007's Juno. Cut Chemist appears as the chemistry teacher – an appreciated tip of the hat to his moniker – and even more, is placed ever so strategically between two spitting images of his very own logo, which is a pair of scissors above a round-bottom flask.
