David Ayer Responds Back To Stan Lee’s Comment On “F— Marvel”

With Suicide Squad officially hitting theaters tonight, and despite harsh critical reception due to a supposedly muddled film, general audience still seem to be excited. Yet mong the drama regarding the film is David Ayer, director of the film’s, comment at the New York premiere where he shouted “F— Marvel!”

Many fans were sent into a frenzy after the statement, even after Ayer’s apology, but both Marvel CCO Joe Quesada and Stan Lee have responded respectfully. Quesada responded with “cut David Ayer a break, it was all in good fun,” with Lee replying “Hey @DavidAyerMovies – Don’t feel too bad about dropping the f bomb. It’s a compliment of the highest order!” Ayer has now replied to Stan Lee’s kind words on Twitter with “You’re The Man sir. You made my childhood a nicer place!” Ayer seems to be glad the guys at Marvel are taking the comment fine as he was simply swept up in the moment at the time.

It’s good to see all members and sides of the comic world getting along, if only fans could do the same.

It feels good to be bad…Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?

Suicide Squad hits theaters on August 5th with select showings tonight.
