Working Title: Death By Cameo: From YKTTW
Antigone2: In the "Film" section, there's two different references to the Eragon movie — which one is correct? I never saw that film.
Xander77: Edit - corrected the Michael Bay example. Twice.
Sean Tucker: Could the Michael Bay example be called a Take That!, due to the link to Pet the Dog?
Xander77: Was meant that way. Mostly because the initial Kick the Dog just didn't work. At all.
Daibhid C: Do literature examples count? I'm thinking of Simon R Green, who keeps introducing characters resembling sf journalist David Langford, just to kill them off.
