James Gunn was fired from Marvel and the Guardians franchise today. It's a result from some tweets he posted in 2008 and 2009.

We can get Into whether it was right or wrong to make the jokes he did, whether him being openly gay, and opposing Trump publicly caused rhe backlash from a lot of conservatives....

Either way it's done, and we do not bring up those kinds of issues in this topic. The geek topic is a safe haven from the scary outside world.

Saying that, now that Gunn has been fired who should replace him as director, writer, and executive producer on Guardians 3?

My first choice and thought would be Taika Waititi, who did a bang up job on Thor Ragnarok. He is familiar with the Marvel universe and process, and I think he can handle the action and tone the franchise has displayed from the previous movies.

Do you fellow geeks have any suggestions on who could replace Gunn?
