Topic	50,000 and growing sign petition for Disney to rehire James Gunn for GotG Vol. 3
Herugrim 07/23/18 12:14:38 PM #44:	So apparently, for whatever reason, Gunn was in a 'dark' place from 2007 - 2012 and made fairly regular 'jokes' about child molestation and rape. Then signs on to develop Guardians of the Galaxy for marvel which had already been bought by Disney, and just leaves the 10,000ish 'jokes' about rape and child molestation laying around. James Gunn is brain-dead. First thing you do if you sign a contract to work for a company that specializes in family-oriented child-friendly content is purge your accounts. Nuke them from orbit if you have to and start over. You can't blame parents for not wanting a man who spent years joking about raping children to work on the superhero movie your kids want to see. People don't want kids to seek him out at conventions for photos and signatures. He wasn't fired for one joke, he was fired for making many, years worth of jokes, and because it was found. Also, they didn't shut down the project like they did with Roseanne (who actually only made one offensive joke) costing the rest of the crew their jobs as well. Guardians3.0 is still going to happen, it's just going to have a new director which could be better or worse. He hasn't been arrested like Dankula was. If he is, it'll be because something surfaces that's real like a series of accusations that might be proven true. He hasn't been black listed (as far as we know) from making any movies. He just isn't going to be able to work with Disney anymore. If he can't find work then that's a problem within Hollywood that one might address. What's more is he championed Roseanne getting fired and her show shut down for making one insensitive joke on social media so by his own values, he is 100% guilty at least 40 times over. What goes around comes around. --- John Watson: "Well it isn't obvious to me."
