Paris Hilton revealed in an interview that she's working with former Marvel Comics chairman Stan Lee on a cartoon. She also stated the show is being developed for MTV and there's going to be a superhero version of the heiress in the toon.

E: “What would your superhero name be?”

P: Actually, I’ve created a superhero with Stan Lee, which is [based on] me, and we’re doing a cartoon right now with MTV.”

I remember hearing about this about a year ago, and the idea still hasn't gotten any easier to swallow. Sounds like Striperella part two.

Anyone remember the 7th portal or the 7th dimension or something like that... it was a web series by Stan Lee where these kids log into a game and become superheroes. Pretty neat stuff.

I remember hearing about this too... I think the concept of a Paris Hilton-TYPE character could be played with quite interesting. Remember what an unpopular character type Tony Stark was? You were supposed to hate him. But when you make it the REAL person, then you get into some grey areas. Not that I'm suggesting Paris is going to become Iron Bitch or something, but I don't know what's going on in Stan's crazy brilliant brain.

That unrelated Disney thing sounds interesting though, and with the direction Disney Animation is going now that Pixar is tinkering with it, there's a very potent meeting of the minds there which could prove to be quite interesting. I'd never caught the straight-to-DVD Stan Lee animations because they didn't catch my eye, but you get Disney involved... (not that I'm saying that's going to happen, but you can hope for snowballs when people like this get together)

See, here's the thing about Stan, the guy's awesome but even he'll say in interviews that he came up with the idea and handed it to people who knew how to run with it, and I think recently, and maybe it's just ME, but I don't feel confident in the people carrying the ball... I don't even know who they are, you know? That's why the Disney idea intrigues me, those guys you can feel confident in. But so much of this is conjecture, we'd just have to wait and see.

But Paris Hilton isn't real. She's the most unreal person I've ever seen. There's nothing authentic about her at all. She's a spoiled brat who has no life to speak of. There are no redeeming qualities to her. She's empty, especially when she's "full". She's a cheap product that stupid people enjoy and cannot avoid the compulsion of buying. What she is and what she represents makes me sick. My greatest fear, of the future Idiocracy, will begin with her success as a media whore.

Ok bud, you just tripped my bullshit factor. Do you know Paris personally? Than how do speak with such authority? You have know way to know that she's anything like she's presented in the media. That being said, that presentation is pretty despicable.

What's the definition of 'person' in this case ? Also, 'insulting' ?

I don't see how callins Paris Hilton a whore is insulting, it's merely observational astuteness. I guess it does kind of insult actual whores though.


And didn't Mr and Mrs Hilton already create a cartoon featuring Paris Hilton ?

So stating an opinion based on the way someone CHOOSES to present herself to the public and the media is a violation of forum rules?

Like it or not, she presents herself as a conceited slut. Now she may not be one behind the scenes, but what we have to go on to base our opinions shows her to be a stupid, spoiled whore. I'm not even talking about the "leaked" porn video. Lots of people do that. But her behavior, from the partying to being seen making out quite in depth with different guys in a short time call her fair maiden virtue into question.

She is a rotten brat too. Did you forget her hissy fit over going to jail for repeated drunk-driving offenses and blowing off court appearances? She expected the judge to look the other way. Just a couple weeks in jail and she ended up in the hospital ward with her parents given special privileges to cut in line to see her over others who had been waiting longer for their turn to visit ill jailed relatives. Every fucking person who drives KNOWS it's wrong to drink and drive, yet she did it repeatedly. And have I mentioned she is spoiled and bratty enough to think she should get off scott-free and and rotten enough to think she got a bad deal?

She can't avoid the compulsion of buying, even when the item is a living creature. Did you miss the fuss about a pet store refusing to let her buy a Yorkie puppy when she told them she was on her way to a photo shoot and thought a puppy would look cuter in the pictures than Tinkerbell? Whether or not that's true (and I agree a Yorkie is much cuter than a chihuahua), the fact is she showed a complete lack of concern for the life of the pup and just wanted to drop thousands on a cute little accessory.

If celebrities are going to make the decision, as adults, to put themselves in the public eye and make conscious attempts to be noticed, then they're fair game for criticism, be that criticism positive or negative. If negative criticism can be called insulting, then so be it. They're still fair game.

Hold up, I am by no stretch a fan of Paris Hilton, but there are a couple of things I feel compelled to say.

First, for her behavior to me there is one person to blame and that is her mom. She groomed her kids to be media whores. She would take them at the age of 12 and 14, let them get drunk in bars and dance on table tops. And if that is not bad enough, SHE would call the press. She did this throughout their teen years. And then, when they are old enough to make their own decisions and be held responsible, how are they going to behave? Well, probably not as saints.

Second, as for the car issue,well, anyone who has any sense doesn't drive drunk. But looking at statistics, there are a lot of people without sense. And I know people who have been busted for drunk driving 5 times and have not gone to jail, it is actually not that common. Plus, can you imagine if your whole life you are being rewards for acting like a moron (which she is-tv show, shoe line, movie roles, etc) and now you are being called on it? And odds are her lawyer and family probably were telling her she would get off and not go to jail.

Do I condone her behavior, no, of course not. But I do understand it. People are responsible for their lives, but sometimes they have some serious negatives they need to get past before they can truly become better people.

Also, I would like to bring up one other point, and that is persona. There was a rapper who was accused of murder. The evidence was all circumstancal and there were actual witnesses to verify his alibi. But everyone said he had to be guilty because he sang about murder and was an evil gangsta rapper. Eventually everything came out and his name was cleared. Judging people by the role they play in the public is just bad form. I behave very differently at work than I do in real life, so one could assume that actors and those in the press all the time would definitely do so, in hopes of keeping some aspects of their life sacred.

So when I see Paris, I see her the same way I see Snoop, that rapper. They are performers. We need to view it through that lens. What is sad is that she never had a choice on being a performer, that was decided for her by a person who should have had her ability as a parent questioned a long time ago.

Dude, for a revision3 community member with thousands of posts, this post is a little rediculous.

On the Paris topic:
You ever hear about the little underage porno she made? How about the DUIs...or her movies or her TV shows. All these negative things about here are 150% warranted. It is such a disgusting thing that she gets as much exposure as she does and now Stan Lee wants to give her more...wow

well i don't know if you ever claimed to be a fan, but you are not.

8. If you have any questions, concerns, or feel as if you were unjustly punished, please PM the moderator involved. Making a public scene of it not only won't help the situation, but will look very bad on your part, as well...possibly resulting in disciplinary action up to and including a ban.

Its just as bad if not worse to dismiss anything relating to Paris Hilton as it is to follow everything she does. Its the same level of obsession, but the former is fairly spiteful.

Ok, I will try to explain so you understand, lol.

A person with 7000+ posts has what we like to call experience. Experience of the forums, how they work, how people communicate. So, it is 'correlated' because it is rediculous how a person as much as a veteran as you, a moderator no less, posts something like your bullshit factor in reference to someone opinionating on Paris Hilton? What? where is the bullshit in the original post? Are we talking about the same Paris Hilton? Then you go on to say how can we say these things about her if we don't know her personally? like some kinda best buddy defence or something from the friends of Michael Vick killing dogs? well ...uhh... because we've her and heard her EVERYWHERE for 4-5 years? Are you serious man? We see how she acts...how she speaks...we know alot of the things she's done and we judge based on those specific things. And calling her a media-whore...I'm not sure that's innacurate either...that's a media-whore not a whore-whore (which I cannot argue she is not from making an underage porno, but that's another topic for another website, heh). How can we judge anything if we can't do that based on our own observations (in this case, millions of observations).

A person posted about how Paris Hilton acts...which really can't be argued as wrong or not entirely accurate seeing how said person has seen Paris Hilton interviewed on TV, on radio, in newspaper, countless talkshows and news reports etc. We also all know of the various incidents Paris has been involved in.

And then you topped it off with a reference of the Rules of Conduct...oh man. And about someone's opinion on Paris Hilton no less...an observed opinion shared by millions. I don't think this was a very hurtful topic bud.

Also, since you said 'technically' isn't saying someone tipped your 'bullshit' factor technically insulting to the poster of this opinion? This isn't moderating dude. relax.

As a woman who has been subjected to that show (the gals like it in the gym) I find it a ghastly description of the show. Can we come up with something better. Obviously it needs to reference something that people who have never seen any podcasts before would be able to grasp. I personally think of "a geeky Sickel and Ebert for movies, tv, comics and games" is a better description, but I think you guys can come up with something of so much better. I have faith.
