It is impossible to do a movie exactly the way a comic book is written and drawn, just as it's impossible to do a movie exactly like a novel or exactly like anything else. When you go to different forms of media, you have to adapt.

More quotes by Stan Lee
You always exaggerate things in a movie. If it makes a good visual and it excites the kids that's good.
Stan Lee
I enjoyed reading Batman, and Superman, and all the super ones, but I never wished I created them. I've got to let there be some work for other people!
Stan Lee
A superhero's catchphrase should be like a really memorable advertising slogan. It sticks in your head and you can't stop humming it. And let's face it, superheroes are just really selling themselves as products.
Stan Lee
It's amazing what these superhero movies have become.
Stan Lee
People like stories that are bigger than life, about characters with unusual powers. And when you get all the characters in the zodiac, it's so colorful, and it's so rich in different attitudes that the characters have.
Stan Lee
You can read a Shakespeare play, but does that mean you wouldn't want to see it on the stage?
Stan Lee
There's just something that feels nice about holding a comic book!
Stan Lee
I like Silver Surfer because he's the most philosophical, always philosophizing about the human race and the human condition and why people are the way they are, why they don't appreciate this wonderful planet they live on... he has a nice moral tone.
Stan Lee
It's the fact that fans still care. I like all the comics conventions: The smaller ones are easier, the bigger ones are exciting.... Each one I say: Never again. But they're all great.... These things are important because they keep the fans' interest alive in comics. They keep the fans reading and their imaginations stimulated.
Stan Lee
I'm lucky. I don't have to produce the whole movie. What I've been doing is just coming up with ideas for movies. I write a concept, a treatment, an outline, and if I sell that to a studio, then someone else does the actual production and I go on to another project, although I keep the title executive producer.
Stan Lee
The main thing I want to do, is to make our website the most entertaining website there is on the Internet. I want it to be the premiere site for entertainment, for communication, and for fun.
Stan Lee
From 1940 to about 1960, I had been writing just regular comics, the way my publishers wanted me too. He didn't want me to use words of more than two syllables if I could help it. He didn't want me to waste time on worrying about good dialogue or characterization. Just give me a lot of action, lot of fight scenes.
Stan Lee
To tell you the truth, I never thought of myself as much of a success.
Stan Lee
Life is never completely without its challenges.
Stan Lee
No matter what you write, it's a matter of putting words in a certain order so that the reader will be interested in what you're writing.
Stan Lee
I enjoy the fact that we have these mobile comics now, which are sort of a cross between a comic book and an animated cartoon.
Stan Lee
Your humans slaughter each other because of the color of your skin, or your faith or your plitics -- or for no reason at all -- too many of you hate as easily as you draw breath. - Magneto

The power of prayer is still the greatest ever known in this endless eternal universe.-The Watcher in The Avengers #14
Stan Lee
I love Marvel and the people there. Im glad I m still part of it.
Stan Lee
Usually, the biggest hang-up is the script. You could have a script done in six months that you love, or it could be like The Fantastic Four it's been almost 10 years.
