I mean...
yeeeeeesh lol
I mean, shit, that is the "risk" of telling "risky" jokes right? Gonna be an edgelord that means you live on the edge. You either get the adrenaline rush and succeed or you fall to your death. He got both.
Despite being somewhat of a creep it seems... he is likely a millionaire and, lets be honest, shit may blow over after awhile and he'll make movies again somewhere.
I don't feel sorry for him at all TBH. Ain't like his life is ruined.
Somewhat excited to see what a GoG movie would look like calmed down just a touch. He kind of pulled a Whedon... seemingly got more control in the second movie and amplified the movie too much. It was "too much" Gunn just like AoU was "too much" Whedeon.

Nah, don't feel sorry for him at all. He's accountable for his own attempts at humor. But he got a raw deal here and Disney's actions are incredibly cowardly. It'd be different if they hadn't known about any of this six years ago, or if Gunn had been making these kinds of jokes while in Disney's employ.
I hope that in a few months when the faux-outrage dies out, Disney brings him back in. They can make a big deal out of it and make Gunn go to some sort of "don't anger the easily offended internet" seminar and apologize (again) and play it out like they're helping him overcome his lousy sense of humor and whatever. Spin it into a nice redemption/second chance PR story.
I can't even look at these posts Gunn made, they disgust me. But just because I don't like them doesn't mean anything. Just because you find them offensive doesn't mean anything. A lot of comedians rely on being offensive (gods I miss George Carlin, he'd be so disappointed in society today) and while Gunn isn't funny, that's the only thing he's guilty of. Gunn got thrown under the "easily offended snowflake" bus by a dude who is an actual monster and, instead of just making bad jokes about this stuff, actively helped build websites for it.

Where's the outrage that Bryan Singer's name is still attached to X-Men films as a producer and that guy actually committed pedophillic attacks. I guess since he hasn't spoken out against Trump, no one cares that his name's attached to the X-Men films.
Besides Gunn stuck to his promise and has acted better for the past 6 years. Since there hasn't been any pedophilic tweets in the past 6 years, I take it he's learned to not do that as well and has acted professionally even after being fired and facing all his past mistakes a second time.

There was outrage online about Singer, it just didn't last long and everyone forgot all about it a few days later when the next idiot got caught and/or accused of doing something dumb.
I doubt the outrage over Gunn will last any longer than it did with Singer, honestly.

ALL HAIL THE HADARI YAO, THE OMEGA'S OMEGA, BEYOND OMEGA, THE VOICE OF SOL!!!! NOW AGAIN THE ONE TRUE AND ONLY GODDESS OF THE X-MEN AS CLAREMONT INTENDED!!!!!
I don't like Bryan Singer just be clear BUT
1.He has never been arrest or convicted of anything
2. 2014 He had remove himself from promoting days of the future past,There was so much outrage then it basically what is happening to James Gunn right now
3. Disney ain't Fox. Disney has a family brand they have way lower tolerance level for these things
4. Lastly FX removed producer credit from him on Legion and They are thinking about doing the same for Gifted season 2
These are two far different things Gunn clearly did what he is accused of,Singer was accused and nothing more ever become of it.While he might have did it when you are never trial and convicted you are considered innocent. Without a clear conviction Fox was rightful hesitant do anything but they have been slowly distancing themselves from Singer.

looks like avengers got it's butt kicked by detective conan in japan. Are you crazy marvel! You don't go up on the same day as a detective conan film! That show is so big there it's got a airport and whole town named after it! (it's been on 20 years and over 800 episodes!)
Marvel should have known better.
