Pac Man

This is the last cameo on this list, so to speak.

The first Guardians of the Galaxy movie broke the climactic-battle mold. Ronan was about to obliterate everyone on Xandar, and Star-Lord distracted him with one of the most idiotic/genius moments in comic book movie history: a dance-off.

So did James Gunn outdo himself yet again with the Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 climactic battle? Unfortunately, he didn’t. However, his genius was obvious when Peter Quill conjured up a giant Pac Man to temporarily defeat his father (thus making good on a promise that he’d build a giant Pac Man with his godlike powers).

It was awesome! But, maybe, it would have been even more awesome if he had created a giant Heather Locklear.
