Stan Lee's appearance on Tavis Smiley’s late night PBS television talk show, 2004.

The interview starts with a brief introduction then shows the preview for the film Fantastic Four released in 2005. Stan Lee thinks of himself as too young to be legendary, despite all of the works that he has done. He loves the works that he does, which is why is so excited about his career and all that entails. If he didn't love what he was doing and the artists that he works with he doesn't think would be successful. He didn't drink and had stopped smoking, and looking back he thinks that if he had partaken in anything of that sort he wouldn't have been able to create the universe that he did. One of the toughest things about the move from the books to film is making sure it appeals to the people who read all of the comics and those who never read a single one.
