We all know that Stan Lee is Marvel’s ultimate showman, and that he has appeared in a number of Marvel's recent films. Here is a compilation of nearly all of his cameos...
Here is Stan’s “Appearance” in the cartoon Big Hero 6.
Enjoy!
This is the place where I discuss all things Sacred and Profane. Stop by and check me out. Leave a comment (or not), as this is done for my own amusement. If you too are entertained, all the better, but that is not the motivation here. For I, am a...Writer with attitude! Comics, Sci Fi, movies, TV, Books, the Internet, Pop Culture, you name it. I talk about all of these things and more. These are the things that entertain me. I can only hope that some of them will entertain you as well.

Comicbook Movies of the Millennium
Back in 2000 (the year that Marvel’s first X-Men film came out, and fundamentally
altered the way that both Hollywood and — by extension — all of pop culture)
viewed the comicbook genre. There have been between four and a dozen
comicbook-related films released per year. Over the past decade-and-a-half we
have been tracking comicbook movies, (As you'd know if you've been following this blog for any length of time — we have a 30+year history or reporting of
actual comics).
In 2015 there were five comicbook-related movies that hit the
theaters. As we’ve reported in previous installments of this column, we are only
discussing live-action films that a) either started off in comics, b) are
clearly influenced by comicbooks themselves, or c) by comicbook superheroes. Films
that we are not considering for this series include anything that originally appeared
on TV (live action or animated), theatrically-released animated films, or films
based on properties adapted into comics, but were best known for initially appearing
in another medium (e.g.: toys). We are also not considering films that were
released direct to video or DVD.
The first set of links list an overview of films categorized as the
titles indicate. Those links are followed by links to the films chronically by
year with the most recent year listed first: We began to post this list over at Examiner.com, but as we are no longer associated with that website, we will continue to post the list over at Hubpages (where we currently post our reviews).
So, here you go, effendi, enjoy!
