The intarwebz are a buzz this morning with news that Stan Lee’s cameo in the Thor movie has been revealed.
If you want to stay in the dark and be surprised when he inevitably shows up, then stop reading now. If this turns out to be true, you will see it coming.
“Thor’s hammer (Mjolnir) is found in the middle of a road somewhere inside a crater by the army. The Army tries to remove it but can’t because it’s way too heavy. They decide to bring in a truck to help. The army men tie Thor’s hammer to the back of the truck with chains hoping to pull it off the road. The truck driver accelerates to pull the Hammer. The back half of the truck falls apart from the front and the front keeps going. Finally, there’s a focus on the driver. it’s revealed to be Comic Legion Stan Lee.”
Stan Lee cameos in Marvel films are a foregone conclusion. But I start to wonder if they are going to stop doing it. I hope not.
My point is that having Stan the Man pop up unexpectantly seems to be the fun side game we play watching Marvel films. But now we anticipate that it WILL happen to the point that the information gets leaked online and now its not a fun little surprise, its just going to be there.
Its losing its flair when you know its coming.
