Armie Hammer Slams Fellow Celebs Sharing Selfies They Took With Stan Lee

Stan Lee, the legendary creator of some of our favorite superheroes, died at the age of 95 on Monday. Stars of the Marvel Universe shared their condolences on social media, posting sweet messages of how Lee touched their lives.

Actor Armie Hammer was not impressed with fellow celebrities who chose to honor Lee with a selfie. He sarcastically wrote how "touched" he was by the actors' photos.

So touched by all of the celebrities posting pictures of themselves with Stan Lee... no better way to commemorate an absolute legend than putting up a picture of yourself.

Hammer's Twitter followers pushed back a bit, wondering what was so offensive about the photos. Here's how he responded.

If Stan impacted your life (ie. All of our lives) with his work, post his work that touched you the most. Posting a selfie makes his death about you and how cool you felt taking a picture with him.

Hammer wasn't calling out just a few celebs. Just about the whole Avengers team shared pictures of themselves with Lee.

Thanks for everything Stan Lee! What a life, so well lived. I consider myself extraordinarily lucky to have gotten to meet you and to have played in the world you created.

We’ve lost a creative genius. Stan Lee was a pioneering force in the superhero universe. I’m proud to have been a small part of his legacy and .... to have helped bring one of his characters to life. #StanLee #Wolverine pic.twitter.com/iOdefi7iYz

How many millions of us are indebted to this guy, none more so than me. The father of Marvel has made so many people so incredibly happy. What a life and what a thing to have achieved. Rest in peace Stan

Hammer offered an exception for The Incredible Hulk, Mark Ruffalo, who was nowhere to be seen in his tribute to Lee.

Sad, sad day. Rest In Power, Uncle Stan. You have made the world a better place through the power of modern mythology and your love of this messy business of being human... pic.twitter.com/x6yZ6ClNSX

“This was an example that stood out and made me think his post was actually about Stan,” Hammer said, approvingly.

Lee thrilled his comic book fans by making a funny cameo in each Marvel film. Fans are hoping to see him one more time in Avengers: Infinity War Part Two, still untitled.
