"As the world now knows, my main career is as a cameo artist. I've gotten to love these cameos so much. In fact, when I meet anybody who is a director or a producer or anybody having to do with a movie or a TV show, and they say, 'Hi Stan, how are you?' I'll say something like, 'I'm fine -- when can I do a cameo?' I just love doing these cameos!"


"Obviously, I wanted to play Odin, the king of the Gods, but this guy Anthony Hopkins, I don't know — I guess they figured he needed the job. Then I wanted to carry a spear, but I guess they thought I couldn't lift the damn thing. So I ended up playing an earth bound mortal, but a very interesting one! I'm only on the screen for maybe five or seven seconds, but these are key seconds. They're very meaningful seconds to the movie 'Thor,' and obviously everybody will go to see 'Thor' to find out what I'm doing in my cameo. I think that's very good, because people might not otherwise hear about the movie."


"I'll say, it's a great movie. I've seen some of the sets and I've read the script, and I never thought I'd find myself saying this before about anything, but probably even without my cameo, it might be a great movie."
