I wouldn't call Buscemi or Schnieders rolls in ALL the Sandler movies cameos. They're part of his troupe now. For instance, in Mr. Deeds, Buscemi was in more than a couple of scenes. Billy Madison, that was a cameo. Schnieder too. When he's in there as supporting cast, not a cameo, ie Big Daddy. The Longest Yard, Sandler's regular troupe wasn't in there. When I saw Schnieder, I was surprised. That was a cameo.
The best kind of cameos are the ones like Pitt and Damon in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, or Sarah Michelle Gellar in She's All That. No lines, just the nod of a head.
Sometimes they get annoying, like the old-tv-show-to-movie movies, that have the original cast members showing up for some stupid reason, Starsky and Hutch having the worst one. I didn't have to watch SWAT on TV, or know the actors, to pick out the cameos.
