The fact they fired a pedo is good.

He is not a pedo. They were jokes not confessions

And iam pretty mad at Disney right now. I think they really messed up and made a wrong decision that is going to bite them in the ass

Don't even bother arguing with the people calling him a pedo. It's clear what their true intentions are since it's a common alt-right smear tactic to accuse someone of being a pedo. They've done it to Dan Harmond too

I might skip gotg3. . . first of the MCU movies if I do.

They're upset that a comedic writer wrote jokes, and they hadn't bothered to check his social media. Fuck those idiot assholes.

No, not at all. Disney made a hasty, poor choice in my opinion. Meanwhile, thousands of people are still putting everything they have into the continuing production of the MCU. Maybe Guardians 3 will be worse off without Gunn... or maybe not. But aside from that, Disney's choice, considered in isolation, doesn't diminish my enjoyment of the MCU.

Disney would be well within their rights to do a lot of heinous, unpalatable shit. Doesn't mean you have to like or support it. No one is say his rights were violated.

They were dumb tweets but they were essentially harmless. Disney's no tolerance policy needs to change especially after the fact.

Spider-Man: Homecoming soured my taste on the Marvel movies.

Scarlet Johanson looks great, they make her look bland.
Zoe Saldana looks great, they make her look bland.
Zendaya looks great, say, is there a pattern here or something?

I love the diversity, I love the push for more and better female representation, but I've grown a little tired of movies with hot men and bland women. Zendaya is beautiful and would've been ideal for a black or biracial Mary Jane Watson, but they made her a geeky weirdo because it'd be sexist if the love interest was physically attractive.

Typically, when it comes to action, I look for good villains and good fight scenes. And if I watch enough of them in a row, yeah, I'm probably gonna want a little eye candy too. Everyone likes to see someone attractive. The villains are notoriously and deliberately underwritten, the fight scenes are mostly done in that shitty Bourne Indentity/Batman Begins style of over-editing everything, and the women are just bland.

The strength of the MCU has always been in the comedy and the likable male characters. And by this point, I'm a little tired of just hanging out with the guys and cracking jokes. Maybe Zendaya is an excuse. Maybe Marvel fatigue was setting in and I just needed a reason to not care anymore. But I had no interest in GotG2 or Infinity Wars.

Hell no.

While I'm a little sad that Guardians 3 will be directed by someone else, there's a chance they could get a better director.
