It's a sign of the Apocalypse!

Part of me is weeping inside.

Why is that, per se?

[JAvery]

I'm more than likely just overreacting, but it's hard to be taken seriously as an art form when stuff like that is being made.  Stan Lee certainly can do a lot better than another vehicle for that waste of space.

[Delvie]

I don't know. I suppose it's a matter of perspective. While I could care less about seeing whether or not she's going to jail for something stupid or making a fool of herself again, I think this could be a good thing. I don't know if I will be entertained @ all, but if Paris donates her typical 20%-100% profit to charities this should go in the win column. Just my humble opinion.

Not the 1st time he let people down.

Well whad'ya expect Stan Lee is a sell out, and does whatever he can to make him more money. The bastard coems to NY once a year and only has the courtesy to sign for 40 people ina a con full of thousands.

And he screwed all the artists that passed away and takes all their credit.

[JAvery]

I fully agree with you, Frankster.  I don't dispute his contribution to comics, but I do get angry at how much he and Marvel marginalize the contributions of the artists.  Giving a rough plot shouldn't give you full credit and deny the artists who did the plotting and so forth any of their contribution.

Some shouldn't rest on their laurels, they should push themselves.  However, I think his best years are behind him.

Not promoting what he did is right, but that is the way of business and i am sure others in the industry are the same way.

[The Frankster]

And he screwed all the artists that passed away and takes all their credit.

Notice how when it comes to the FF, Hulk, Silver Surfer and DD, he sed that He "created." (disrepsect to Kirby and Everett)

But when he mentions Spider-Man and Dr. Strange he "co-Created", cause Ditko is still alive and wont stand for that.
