The World Lost It's Grandpa This Weekend, And No One Knows How To Handle It- Remembering Stan Lee

In This Article:

Stan the man, smiley Stan, the cameo king, and creative genius- this weekend we lost one of the most talented men in the whole world.

He created an experience on paper and in theaters that changed people's lives. It is only appropriate to celebrate the man who made us all believe in superheroes by looking back on who he was and where his heart resided. It is all about remembering the way that his humor and intelligence joined together to form what will live on forever as nothing less than legendary.

What better way to celebrate his life than with some of the best cameos of all time, am I right?

1.Thor 

Lee appears at the beginning of the first Thor movie as a truck driver who is trying to pull Mjölnir out of the ground with the backside of his truck.

Let's be real, if anyone else would be able to pick up Thor's hammer, it Stan Lee.

2. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

Just like we all hoped, Stan Lee makes an appearance with the Watchers.

It is accurate, if anyone is watching over the multiverses, it is Stan the Man.

3. Thor Ragnarok 

Sakaar's finest barber, Stan Lee.

"And don't you move, my hands aren't as steady as they used to be!" Lee proclaims as he tries to cut Thor's hair.

4. Captain America: Civil War

An all-time favorite.

Lee appears in a sweet and semi-serious moment looking for someone by the name of "Tony Stank". There is no way anyone can watch this cameo without a giggle.

I am certain that the entire world felt a void when Stan Lee passed away, especially those who knew him personally.

"How many millions of us are indebted to this guy, none more so than me. The father of Marvel has made so many people so incredibly happy. What a life and what a thing to have achieved. Rest in peace Stan" -Tom Holland (Spiderman 2017)



"Thanks for everything Stan Lee! What a life, so well lived. I consider myself extraordinarily lucky to have gotten to meet you and to have played in the world you created." -Chris Pratt (Starlord)



"I owe it all to you, rest in peace Stan" -Robert Downey Jr (Iron Man)



And finally, Chris Evans said it best:

"There will never be another Stan Lee. For decades he provided both young and old with adventure, escape, comfort, confidence, inspiration, strength, friendship and joy. He exuded love and kindness and will leave an indelible mark on so, so, so many lives. Excelsior!!"



For the rest of time, Stan Lee and his comics will wow the world and bring our favorite stories to life. There is no proper way to grieve the death of someone who changed the world in the way that Stan Lee did. For now, we reminisce, and as for the future: we anxiously await the appearances Lee will make in finished movies. *queue uncontrollable sobs*.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
