Name three celebrities who appeared in Tim Burton's 1996 movie, "Mars Attacks!"

This movie had a huge cast of celebrities.  Please - no looking up the answer. Only three names please and only one submission per person. 

I'll give the best answer to the most obscure list of choices.  I'd give a tip for best answer but I have no money to give awa.  :(

Luke Haas,even though he is not a big star, I love the character in the movie.
Joe Don Baker
Asker's Rating:
• lesliec came in 2nd with Christina Applegate. But I'll give the Best Answer to rosshann because of his choice of Luke Haas. That answer came out of left field for me.

Got it. I was looking at his younger pictures and wondered where I've seen him before. Then I realized - he played the young Amish boy in Witness with Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis.

Thanks!

I didn't recall seeing Christina Applegate. Sure enough she was in it. Good one!

Yep - My favorite scene is the one with Tom Jones singing "It's Not Unusual" and the aliens replace the backup singers before unleashing their mayhem.

I didn't know Jack Black the first time I saw the movie. It's only when I saw it again much later that I realized it was him.

I love this question, probably because I used to use this movie and Til there was you to connect actors and movies ala 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon. Therefore, I know the actors here. :) Hard to remember obscure because most of the names were fairly well known, or at least they are now, but I will say Andrew Keegan is probably one of the lesser knowns. I'll just add Tom Jones cause I can't get that image of him in the waterfall out of my mind, and of course back then Sarah Jessica Parker was pretty obsolete, right?
Source(s):
my memory. I've only seen this flick once, but I can still remember the images flashing across my head. Most of all Tom Jones though -- always him.

Thanks for your answer. And no problem with the memory thing - it happens to me a lot, too. ;)

I did think about that 6 (not 7) degrees of Kevin Bacon thing while posting this question. Mars Attacks would be a great source for one of those degrees.

There wouldn't be much of a challenge doing that. Don't you agree?
