And thanks to wikipedia, here’s a list of every Lee Cameo over the years:

• In X-Men (2000), Lee appears as a hotdog stand vendor on the beach when the newly mutated Senator Kelly emerges naked onshore after escaping from Magneto.
• In Spider-Man (2002), he appeared during Spider-Man’s first battle with the Green Goblin, pulling a little girl away from falling debris. In the DVD’s deleted scenes, Lee plays a street vendor who tries to sell Peter Parker a pair of sunglasses.
• In Daredevil (2003), as a child, Matt Murdock stops Lee from crossing the street and getting hit by a bus. This is also a reference to an incident in the comics which was omitted from the origin story of the film.
• In Hulk (2003), he appears walking alongside former TV-series Hulk Lou Ferrigno in an early scene, both as security guards at Bruce Banner’s lab. It was his first speaking role in a film based on one of his characters.
• In Spider-Man 2 (2004), Lee pulls an innocent person away from danger during Spider-Man’s first battle with Doctor Octopus. In a blooper scene that appears as an extra on the film’s DVD release, Lee has another cameo, saying, “Look, Spider-Man stole that kid’s sneakers.” Stan Lee also appears talking to Peter Parker.
• In Man-Thing (2005), a photograph of Lee is seen on a board of missing people.
• Lee as Willie Lumpkin in Fantastic Four, 2005.
• In Fantastic Four (2005), Lee appears for the first time as a character that he created for the comics, Willie Lumpkin, the mail carrier who greets the Fantastic Four as they enter the Baxter Building.
• In X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), Lee and Chris Claremont appear as two of Jean Grey’s neighbors in the opening scenes set 20 years in the past. Lee, credited as “Waterhose Man”, is watering the lawn when Jean telekinetically redirects the water from the hose into the air.

In Fantastic Four Annual #3 (1965), in which the couple married, Lee and Jack Kirby are similarly turned away.
• In Spider-Man 3 (2007), Lee appears in a credited role as “Man in Times Square”. He stands next to Peter Parker, both of them reading a news bulletin about Spider-Man, and commenting to Peter that, “You know, I guess one person can make a difference”. He then says his catchphrase, “‘Nuff said” and leaves Peter to dwell on that thought.
• In Iron Man (2008), Lee, credited as “Himself”, appears at a gala cavorting with three blondes, where Tony Stark mistakes him for Hugh Hefner. In the theatrical release of the film, Stark simply greets Lee as “Hef” and moves on; another version of the scene was filmed where Stark realizes his mistake, but Lee graciously responds, “That’s okay, I get this all the time.” In 2008, Stan Lee named this as his favourite cameo appearance to that date.

He tears the bed off his pickup truck in an attempt to pull Mjolnir out of the ground with a chain and causes everyone in the scene to laugh by asking, “Did it work?”.

• In Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), Lee plays a general in World War II who mistakes another man for Captain America/Steve Rogers, commenting, “I thought he’d be taller.” Lee had nothing to do with the basic creation of the title character. However, Lee began his writing career in the character’s original series where he created the idea of Captain America using his shield as a throwing weapon. Furthermore, he was responsible for reviving the character in the Silver Age of Comic Books and co-wrote most of the character’s stories in The Avengers and his solo stories in that period.

• In The Amazing Spider-Man (2012), Lee is a librarian at Midtown Science High School, comically oblivious to the fight between Spider-Man and the Lizard happening behind him (a table nearly hits him as well) due to the fact that he is listening to classical music.

With the exception of Groot, Ronan and The Collector, Lee did not have a hand in the creation of the Guardians of the Galaxy.
• In Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), he appears as a military veteran who attends the Avengers’ victory party. He claims he fought at Omaha Beach and that it proves he can handle a shot of Asgardian liquor from Thor, but is then carried away drunk, muttering his catchphrase, “Excelsior!”^[150] Lee noted that this was his favorite cameo.
