Marc Maron recently appeared on
Conan and talked about the negative cultural impact he believes Marvel movie are having while jokingly
dismissing them as being for "grown male nerdchilds."
Needless to say, the response to his remarks has been a vocal one, and he's now taken to social media to elaborate.
As you can see below, he's standing by what he said, but also makes it clear that he does appreciate comic books as a whole. Maron also addresses his role in
Joker, an upcoming DC Comics movie (which some have claimed makes him a hypocrite).
The actor and stand up comedian points out that what attracted him to that project is the fact that it tells a very human story, and he also makes it clear that he didn't appear for a massive pay day!
Of course, some die hard fans won't appreciate what Maron has to say here, but he doesn't seem to mean any harm with his comments (unlike Bill Maher's vile remarks about Stan Lee). It's just his opinion, and that's something the GLOW star is perfectly entitled to.
What do you guys think?
