I really hope that he had filmed some potential cameos before he passed. That way we can continue to enjoy his presence in movies to come. Many of his cameos were not specific to a movie, and others could be digitally copied into a movie.
He laid the groundwork for some of the best stories of our generation and its a blessing that he got to see his stories and ideas adapted to a new medium and finally adapted well.
He was always kind and generous with his stardom and he always had time for fans and its a blessing to all of us that he went peacefully and not during a long slow decline.
RIP Stan. You go to a far, far better rest than you have ever known. You've earned it. Go be with Joan.

I'd rather his last one be that last one he intended to be in. You just know their gonna CGI sandwich him into every Marvel film from now to eternity.

Which is really creepy and weird. Since when did this become an acceptable thing? Are they going to make someone like James Earl Jones or Morgan Freeman read the entire dictionary so that they can digitally make them say/narrate anything they want after they're dead?

Comic book characters of his were a good part of my life growing up. Inspired imagination and early thinking about important values. Thanks for that, Stan. I wouldn't be the same without those characters.

Dave Chappelle said the true mark of genius is that no one did it your way before, and everything that comes after bears your mark in some way. Stan Lees mark was so deep that it would be hard to imagine what the entire world of entertainment would be like without his individual contribution.

I hope they would do it like this.

Amazing interview with Jack King Kirby and Stan The Man Lee. Stan calls in, at the about 18:30 mark, this was a bit of reconciliation between the two after they had a falling out.
