    I'll be hunkered down in the panic room with my family and my guns.  We have hot pockets and Spongebob on bluray.

    and his mother...and his father...and his brother...and his friends...and he didn't just lose a big battle - he basically got half the universe killed because he had Thanos beat and took time to gloat.  Yeesh, it's perfectly realistic for him to quit on life IMO.

    Does anyone actually need to make that case?  Are there actually people out there who look back at the last 12 years of the MCU and think Kevin Feige doesn't know how to portray heroes??
     
     Ok.
     
    Btw, here's an excerpt from a Stan Lee interview around the time the first Thor movie came out:
     
    Lee’s literary approach — and his desire to depict his heroes’ private lives — profoundly altered comics. Spider-Man suffers a teen’s social travails. Iron Man battles his demon addiction. Lee says he was guided by intimate questions: “What did they do when they weren’t fighting supervillains? Where did they live? . . . What were their hopes, dreams, aspirations, as well as their frustrations?”
    He believes passionately that many people like their superheroes to have depth, to have vulnerability, to have flaws — to be vexed beneath the spandex.
    “For a long time, there was no personal involvement with some of the super­heroes,” Lee says. “I’d read books and Dickens always had interesting characters. Mark Twain had interesting characters — so did Edgar Rice Burroughs, and Arthur Conan Doyle, who created the greatest fictional character of all in Sherlock Holmes.
    “I wanted to write the kind of dialogue that would give the character personality."

    I would honestly hate to win that much money. It would cause more headaches than it would solve. I don't want to buy anything requiring that order of magnitude of lucre. My name and face would be made public, and everyone wanting a handout would start hounding me. Deciding how to use the money to benefit which people would be a huge responsibility. And I'd never be sure if people genuinely wanted to be my friends, or just use me.
     
    My dream is a one to five million dollar prize. I'd spread the majority to my family and a few causes I consider worth supporting, then retire on the rest.
