Description

In 1961, Stan Lee teamed with artist Jack Kirby to create the super-hero team, The Fantastic Four, changing the face of comic books forever. They then went on a creative rampage, creating the Incredible Hulk, the Mighty Thor, and the X-Men. Then, in 1964, Lee teamed with Steve Ditko to create a teenage super-hero with teenage characteristics. The amazing Spider-Man would become the most popular comic book character in the world. Presented here in two complete features, enhanced by rare photos and a tour of Lee's personal memorabilia collection, Lee talks in-depth with filmmaker Kevin Smith about his role in creating our modern mythology.

2 out of 5 stars It's OK. Right. Uh-huh........2006-12-07

These interviews were kind of interesting, but my time could have been spent better watching something else. I'm glad they were short.

Kevin Smith asked a few interesting questions and Stan Lee had some fairly interesting answers. All-in-all, there was nothing on this DVD that I couldn't have lived without knowing, and I'm a comic fan.

I only give more than three stars if I would watch a show again. I would not in this case. I also take away one star for Kevin saying "Right" and "Uh-huh" after every-single-sentence that Stan Lee uttered. It was annoying to the point that I almost stopped watching!

5 out of 5 stars Kevin Smith's greatest interviews with Stan lee!.......2006-05-07

This is Kevin Smith's greatest inteviews with Stan Lee! The first part of these interviews, Stan Lee talks about his early days at Marvel comics! Stan Lee created comic book characters: Spidermam, Fantastic Four, Captain America, the Incredible Hulk, DareDevil and Uncanny X-Men in the early 1960s! In this interview Stan Lee talks about his best creation, Spiderman. Stan Lee begins his conversation with Kevin Smith on how Stan created Spiderman and what the details of his origin are in Amazing Fantasy #15! He goes in depth on how created the character and thought process on how he wrote the comic books. this interview occured before the first Spiderman movie was released in theatres so it's a-little out of date now. But Stan Lee talks about his early days at Marvel comics and goes in to detail everything that happened when wrote stories and created the Marvel characters! Great interviews! A+

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Documentary.......2005-01-22

A must-have for any comic book fan! Kevin Smith is in the interviewer's chair and does a great job of interviewing the ultimate comics man. Stan Lee tells his life story focusing on the creation of Spiderman and the other super-heroes he created during the 60's as well as some of the controversial moments such as when an issue of Spiderman was published without the seal of the Comics Code.

Additional features include an interview with Stan's wife.

3 out of 5 stars COMIC BOOK LITE.......2004-10-03

Stan is the Man, but..

Kevin Smith provides more fan appreciation than inside conversation.

Fans expecting a hardcore documentary will not get it here, but they will get a nice sit down interview with Stan Lee.

No great insights abound here, mainly because Stan is a charming guy - and he isn't about to dish the real goods on the industry. He remains the peerless diplomat. What you get is Stan the Man in conversation, but not Stan the self-introspective creator.

This complements Stan's book biography well - which provides slightly more detail about Stan's life. I didn't learn that much about Stan and his work here, but it's fine to watch nonetheless.

3 out of 5 stars good interviews with comics legend.......2003-08-14

This DVD consists of two extended interviews with Stan Lee, who is probably the most famous and influential writer of comic books in the history of that medium. For the most part, Kevin Smith, the interviewer (himself a comics writer and filmmaker), gives Lee the floor and allows him to say whatever he wishes to say. This is a nice relief from many interviews, in which the interviewer imposes himself into the proceedings far more than is either necessary or welcome. And, as it turns out, Lee is an engaging speaker, very easy to listen to and full of interesting things to say about various of his creations.

My complaint is that there is no real depth to the interviews. I got this disc as part of the deluxe DVD edition of "Spider-Man," so that it comes off as an extended supplement more than anything else. As that, it is fantastic. If, however, you consider it as its own entity, as something you are prospectively about to pay $... for, it is probably not worth the money. Lee is an important, interesting figure, and surely something more cohesive could have been fashioned out of hours of talking with the man. What we get, instead, is sort of a greatest-hits version of Lee's story. It's interesting, but not satisfying.
