Stan Lee Is No Longer Discriminating In His Projects

Oh, Stan. Stan. How could you? Are you really so hard up for cash that you'd make a superhero cartoon with the epitome of all terrorists hate about America, Paris Hilton? Because I'll write you a check right now if that's what the problem is. Says some random celeb site:

"Actually, I've created a superhero with [Spider-Man co-creator Stan Lee], which is [based on] me, and we're doing a cartoon right now with MTV," she tells San Diego's CityBeat.

Which begs the question, which superhero power would the paparazzi-chased socialite most like to have? "To be invisible -- that would be fun," she says.

Along those fantastical lines, Paris addresses which "Star Trek" character she'd hook up with: "None. I have a boyfriend, and, um, I don't watch 'Star Trek.'"

What a riveting interview, and what a scintillating personality. Now excuse me, while I slam my head against my desk in pure hate. Seriously, this makes Stripperella sound like The Dark Knight. Shouldn't someone have to stop actively causing society harm before someone makes a superhero cartoon about them? Shouldn't that be a rule?

When has Stan Lee EVER been discriminating in his projects? That man has been putting out crap for the last two decades. He needs to just stop. At some point, all the good in the universe he has done will be undone by nonsense such as this and those direct-to-DVD "Stan Lee Presents" abominations from a few years ago.

...Okay, that last one crossed a line.

What's worse, Paris as a cartoon superhero or Britney in Tarantino's new movie?

Paris as a cartoon superhero FAR exceeds the limits of reality more so than does Britney. Tarantino is known for using has-beens as a general rule in his casting decisions. It still doesn't make it okay, either way.....

On the flipside, now Stan Lee gets to have some samurai manga based on him.

Are you saying "Who Wants to Be A Superhero?" didn't convince you that it was time to put ol' Stan out to pasture. I think Marvel is partly to blame; given what he did for that company (would there even be a Marvel Comics without him? Or would they have gone the way of Quality, Charlton, and all the rest?) they should just mail him a blank check every month. But they screwed him out of his own property and forced him to go back to work at an advanced age.

Paris Hilton as a superhero? What's her name: StupidBitch? Hyperslut? The Skanktress?

Friginator said:

Isn't this the EXACT same sh*t as Stripperella just with Paris Hilton instead of Pamela Anderson?

As for Stan, he does put out a lot of crap, but that's what entrepeneurs do. Constantly putting out new material was how he got started, regardless of its quality.

Remember Stan's last bimbo eruption, the Pamela Anderson Stripperella? Methinks The Man needs a new line to woo the babes.
