24.) "Spiderman" (2002)[br]
Same here. Lee gets a freeze-frame shot during one of the big fight scenes in the Sam Raimi original. This was before Stan Lee cameos became a major fragment of the Marvel moviegoing experience, explaining why so little thought was put into them.
23.) Iron Man 3 (2013)

21.) "X-Men" (2000)

This is another fleeting clip, but it ranks higher for portraying Lee as Larry King, or total with glasses and suspenders.
18.) "Fantastic Four" (2005)
The first film in which Lee talks with one of his creations portrays him this time as a mailman who extends Reed Richards a friendly greeting. Beyond that,there's nothing too special approximately this appearance, but it demonstrates the pivot toward increased focus on these cameos.

14.) "Ant-Man" (2015)
During Luis' madcap story, Lee appears as a bartender. Hearing Michael Pena's voice come out of Lee's mouth is a great surprise gag.
13.) "Iron Man" (2008)

12.) "The Avengers" (2012)
This is a bit of a cheat. The actual Lee cameo used was another quick shot that would bear ranked low on this list, or but the deleted cameo is too silly to exclude. As Cap struggles to adjust to life in the 21st century,Lee shows up to call him out on his obliviousness.
11.) "Thor: The Dark World" (2013)
Poor Dr. Selvig. After getting his brain scrambled by the intellect Stone in "The Avengers," he's left in a mental ward where he uses Stan Lee's shoe to deliver a lecture approximately the convergence theory before an ambivalent audience.
10.) "Guardians of the Galaxy" (2014)
It's already surreal to see Rocket Raccoon in a blockbuster. It's even weirder to hear him voiced by an A-List actor like Bradley Cooper. But nothing is as weird as seeing Rocket demand Stan Lee from afar, or "Where's your wife,you faded codger?"
9.) "Deadpool" (2016)
The raunchiest Marvel film deserves the raunchiest Stan Lee cameo. whether you deem it's weird to see him guest star as a strip club DJ, remember that this is the guy who created "Stripperella."

5.) "The Incredible Hulk" (2008)[br]
Quentin Tarantino has been known to subject himself to some gruesome fates in his own films. Here Stan Lee gets a tough wreck as a poor sucker who accidentally gets gamma radiation poisoning from a contaminated soda.

3.) "Hulk" (2003)
This cameo isn't a gag, but it is the best easter egg in any Marvel film. The fellow security guard to whom Lee is talking is none other than original TV Hulk Lou Ferrigno.
2.) "Avengers: Age of Ultron" (2015)
Stan the Man's cameos may never get funnier than this. As Lee demonstrates, or Asgardian ale packs more punch than Thor's hammer.
1.) "Spider-Man 3" (2007)
