Superhero stories are essentially quest based stories about virtuous heroes taking on evil forces. These have been the most prominent types of stories in every single culture since the dawn of man. Bill needs a history lesson. History shouldn't be a mystery Our stories real history Not his story We gonna work it one day Till we all get paid The right way in full, no bull Talking, no walking, driving, arriving and stylin' Tell 'em -- soon you'll see what I'm talking 'bout Cause one day The brothers gonna work it out

"The people who say comics are for kids are the same ones who say animation is for kids."
But does Maher say all animation is for kids? I thought he was talking about comic books about superheroes and animation movies about super heroes. But I admit I probably didn't see his first monologue about it.
I saw one of his "respondologues"
I have to admit, he makes me laugh, I sometimes look up his videos just to get good laughs. As for StanLee being remembered long after Bill Maher is...very very likely. Kids (and I guess adults) will be reading his material for generations to come.
Bill will be forgotten because he's such a relic like i said

Bill Maher is probably no expert on comic books. He is probably referring to movies like The Avengers, The Fantastic Four, Superman and Spiderman. Those movies are childish and silly. Like Star Wars and Jurrasic Park. Yes, they have great special effects and maybe action. But that is about it. Same with video games. Eventually most people grow out of such nonsense. Grow out of such "nonsense"? your just being pretentious and not truly adult, C.S. Lewis has something to say to you and what is being adult mean? and what movies do adults like explain? These are the best movies I have seen lately; Blue Jay - Adult Drama (Netflix) Wind River - Murder Mystery, Crime (Netflix) A Simple Favor - Drama, Mystery, Dark Comedy Una - Drama, Romance (Netflix) Last Night - Drama, Romance (Netflix)

Give me something like John Wick movies, Dredd, Shape of Water, Mission Impossible 6 or any quality sci-fi/action/fantasy film.

As long as you are not hurting anybody, do whatever you want. Hopefully one day you will move on to more adult things.

Bill will be forgotten because he's such a relic like i said That's not why he'll be forgotten. He'll be forgotten because he hasn't done anything that will leave a mark indelibly on humanity. Many people will be forgotten, even people who aren't relics.

Your such a pretentious person When involved in a debate, attacking your opponent instead of his position is an admission of you knowing you are losing the debate. I understand. Children do this all the time when faced with a conflict that is over their heads. "You're stupid." "No, you are."

I don't think Bill Maher cares. He is doing what he likes. And he makes good money. I agree. He makes a good living at what he does. I give him credit for being willing to invite people who disagree with him vehemently and gives them opportunity to give their POV. And me makes me LMAO everytime I watch one of his videos. His humor just clicks with me.

His humor just clicks with me. One of the things Bill Maher has always done is attack segments of society in an insulting manner. For one reason is to allow the shock value to bring attention to him. This is no different. It would appear his words have hit a nerve with these comic book fans. It is one thing to enjoy fantasy from an escapist mentality. But I think Bill Maher is correct. If you are over 17, and your whole world is praising comic books and fictional super heroes, you need to grow up.
