Stan Lee’s Marvel-lous Cameos
The Incredible Hulk
Stan The Man is: Milwaukee Man Drinking From Bottle
What Happens? It must be getting harder to come up with ideas for Lee cameos: a man can only dodge debris so many times. Some filmmakers haven’t even tried – Lee didn’t show up in Blade, Elektra, Ghost Rider, X2, Wolverine, Man-Thing or the Punisher movies. But he does appear, briefly and inventively, in Louis Leterrier’s Hulk reboot, playing an old man who takes a drink out of a juice bottle containing some of Bruce Banner’s gamma-irradiated blood.
Wink-Wink Rating Leterrier downplays Lee’s appearance nicely: for the uninitiated, it’s just an old guy with grey hair and a moustache. Lee-gionaires, though, will be disappointed that Leterrier didn’t shoot a $10 million dollar sequence where Lee transforms into an angry, green OAP, yelling, ‘Bah! Puny humans think they can hurt Hulk. Hulk can remember when it was all fields round here.’
