James Gunn, director de Guardianes de la Galaxia muestra una foto del cameo eliminado de Stan Lee y aclara el rumor de una supuesta censura por parte de Disney.

En varios blogs de fanáticos de los cómics de Marvel se leyó la noticia de que James Gunn había filmado una escena en la que Stan Lee aparecía en el museo del coleccionista y que Disney había obligado al director a remover la escena (censurado), el día de hoy el director de Guardianes de la Galaxía nos da una explicación, les dejamos el texto completo para que lo lean y si les da flojera hasta abajo un resumen.

"At a panel on Sunday at Dragoncon, I talked about a deleted @realstanlee cameo in Guardians, and promised the folks there I’d post a photo on Instagram - so here it is! As you can see, this is not Stan, but a double. In the original cut of the film, when the Guardians enter the Collector’s museum, Rocket looks over and sees Cosmo the dog in one display case, Quill looks over into another display case and is surprised by a tentacle slapping against the glass, and Groot looks over and sees, in another display case, Stan Lee. In one take, Stan Lee just slowly turns up his finger, flipping off Groot. We shot this footage with a Stan Lee double because Stan wasn’t able to come to the UK at the time. The plan was to shoot Stan in the same lighting when I was back in LA, and we’d digitally replace the double’s head with Stan’s actual head (not quite as difficult as it sounds). Although I thought the cameo was funny, I thought the flipping off joke was too similar to the moment earlier in the film where Quill flips off the Nova Corps, so I excised that part of it immediately. A couple of the guys at Marvel thought Stan Lee in a case was too broad of a joke in general, and that it took the audience out of the movie. I argued about it for a bit, but we ended up not keeping it in the film. In a pretty typical case of Internet-journalism-telephone, articles online yesterday said that Disney forbade the scene because of standards . However, that’s incorrect - no one at Disney ever even saw the scene, and it was cut solely for creative reasons."

En el texto, James Gunn explica que si filmó una escena para poner a Stan Lee en una de las vitrinas del coleccionista, que fue eliminada de la película y que como lo prometió a varios de sus amigos les compartiría la foto en Instagram, por último aclara que no sufrío de censura ya que nadie en Disney vio la escena.
