Disney has severed ties with James Gunn and he is let go from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 after conservative personalities resurfaced old tweets he made in a controversial topics such as pedophilia and rape as Gunn has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump

The offensive tweets discovered are indefensible and inconsistent with Disney's values as they have severed ties with him said chairman Alan Horn

Before he deleted his twitter, James wrote "Many people who have followed my career know when I started, I viewed myself as a provocateur, making movies and telling jokes that were outrageous and taboo. As I have discussed publicly many times, as Ive developed as a person, so has my work and my humor."

He's been working on the script for the 3rd movie and was expected to release in 2020 as both movies have been huge successes making over a billion in total.

He's been an indie genre film maker at Troma entertainment before he found success with Marvel.

Do you think he should have been fired?

Have you said anything dumb or edgy in the past decade Zeus that you might not agree with here and now 10 years later? Anything you might have said anywhere on the internet that wasn't correctthink by today's shifting metrics? Any offhand remarks that you may have made at any point in the past decade that could be misconstrued devoid of context?

Think you should be fired and never work again because of that?

Just wondering how far you want to push this point.

Because Mike Cernovich, a total douche who once, by his own account, whipped out his wang and gratified himself in front of a woman in the backseat of her car when she was unwilling to have sex with him, dug up 7- to 10-year-old tweets from a man who apologized for those tweets 6 years ago and made an effort to not do that shit anymore, mostly because that man said mean things about Donald Trump.

So it's just one asshole taking things too far. Human history is full of people doing that without making it about Trump. Somehow people want to credit Trump with everything these days.

Oh, no, Mike "super serum" Cernovich somehow has a following (many of whom are Trump supporters), and that following jumped on the "get James Gunn fired for something he apologized for 6 years ago (but mostly because he said mean things about Trump)" train when he implicitly told them to.

this might be worse than most of those gunn tweets. a lot of his tweets seemed harmless in the realm of comedy.

My thoughts are: i dont agree but disney can do whatever they want. I wish people would stop patrolling the internet for things to be outraged about. that goes for both sides of the political aisle.

The far left has been trying to normalize pedophilia for a rather long time. They even came up with a new term to confuse the masses. "MAP", a "minor-attracted person". Degeneracy is what it is, the betrayal of children. Every time they screw up and over-extend their reach, they cut off the offending hand.

Do you not understand PR? The firing is all about optics - how Disney will look in the public eye in light of the controversy. It's meant to be symbolic more than anything. I'm sure the executives at Disney don't give two shits about those tweets, but they fired James Gunn to give the appearance that they care and to quell any potential anger or boycotts that may be levied at Disney as a result.

From the other topic:

I think it's silly to fire people for tweets, but if Roseanne can get fired for a quasi-racist tweet, why shouldn't the same happen to this guy?

If 10 people write emails/snail mails, it's the same to them as if 1m people are actually angry. Advertiser panic ensues, they assume pharma and car companies will stop advertising their bullshit. All hell breaks loose in a boardroom. This is the reality at companies. Whether or not this mirrors actual reality in any way is questionable, but this is literally the world the corporate entertainment bubble lives in.
