Having considered the awesomeness that is Cousin Eddie in the Vacation flicks, I wondered if there are any more great secondary characters that crack you up something rotten or who you're glad when they appear on screen...

Here's some of mine:

Cousin Eddie - Vacation
Eugene Levy as the dad - American Pie
Marshall - Alias (the gadget guy)
The Kung-Fu, zombie-kicking Vicar - DeadAlive (aka Braindead) ("I kick ass for the lord!")
Jefferson D'Arcy - Married with Children

Taber from One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (Christopher Lloyd character - just makes me laugh)

From a very similar movie, John McEnroe from Deeds, starring Adam Sandler.

I dont think ever. Even if he screws up and makes a couple bad posts, I don't think the mods will give him a star until he does like 5-6 bad ones in a row.

Styles - Teen Wolf
Iceman - Top Gun
