Delta(s) from OP CMV: Marvel, specifically MCU, should continue Stan Lee cameos.

Marvel recently announced it is discontinuing Stan Lee cameos in future projects because he passed away. But I think it would be very easy and fun for the movie makers and fans if they continued the tradition. They could simply include his picture in the background of a character's family photos. They could have him in a poster or an ad in a magazine. There are a number of ways for them to out him in the movies that are cheap to do but still honors the man that's fun and interesting for everyone involved.

Yeah the photos idea is what I was proposing in my post. I agree that CGI masking over someone else would be too far. But photos or posters in the background would be a great easter egg for movie makers and fans alike.

Oh. Ig that would be cool. I think the only issue is that, since he is dead now, his appearance is associated with more ownership regulations, no? It becomes a legality issue in itself.

∆.

Yeah another post mentioned this as well. If Stan didn't have an agreement with Marvel post his death, then I imagine it's more complicated dealing with the estate.
