You always exaggerate things in a movie. If it makes a good visual and it excites the kids that's good.

I couldn't say no when I received that offer [to re-invent the DC characters]... How can any writer say no to the opportunity of redoing every one of DC's top superheroes?
Stan Lee
Image
It's a tremendous challenge, because there have been so many characters created over the years. Every time you think you come up with a great name, you find out somebody has already done it. Dreaming up the stories isn't that hard, but coming up with a good title is the toughest part.

You can't kill a good comic book series.
Stan Lee
Image
The world has always been like a comic book world to me! What's happened is that communications got better and better, so now with cell-phones we can be in touch with people half a globe away.
Stan Lee
Image
I think there's the element of the excitement of what I'm going to see, and with the special effects where you see men flying and walking through walls and shooting flame or whatever they do, especially the younger audiences, which make up a bulk of the moviegoers, they love that sort of thing.

I don't expect every movie to be done exactly the way I would have done it.

Life is never completely without its challenges.
Stan Lee
Image
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
Image
When you combine the great stories from the comics with the action and visual excitement of the movies, it doesn't get any better!
Stan Lee
Image
I never thought that Spider-Man would become the world wide icon that he is. I just hoped the books would sell and I'd keep my job.
Stan Lee
Image
If you enjoy what you do, if you are interested in what you do, I really think that's the best situation.
Stan Lee
Image
I think people have always loved things that are bigger than life, things that are imaginative.
Stan Lee
Image
There's never a time when I'm not working. I don't take vacations.
Stan Lee
Image
I guess one person can make a difference.
Stan Lee
Image
These stories of people with unusual powers and unusual appearances, who do unusual things, people are always fascinated by them.
Stan Lee
Image
I think kids love superheroes, and the more you can crowd into a story, the more excited they get.
Stan Lee
Image
I have never had a lap dance in Tampa or any other part of Florida. If I ever did have a lap dance, I don't think I would be discussing television ideas with the girl that was giving it to me.
Stan Lee
Image
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.

I've been very lucky. All I wanted was to pay the rent. Then these characters took off and suddenly there were Hulk coffee mugs and Iron Man lunchboxes and The Avengers sweatshirts everywhere. Money's okay, but what I really like is working.

Everybody learns differently and everybody gets to a certain point from a different direction.
