James Gunn has been removed from Disney -- :(

James Gunn - Guardians of the Galaxy premiere - July 2014 (cropped).jpgAlright! Today I bring bad news. James Gunn (The man who worked on Guardians Vol. 1 and 2), has been removed from Guardians Vol. 3 and any other Disney thing. Disney has severed ties with him. Why?


A: Twitter
Again with the Twitter. Unfortunately, 10 years ago he made some inappropriate tweets about pedophilia and rape. This does not line up with Disney's "Golden Rule Policy" or whatever it's called, where they (the people Disney associates with), must line up with Disney's core values.

But how did this happen? 

A: 10 years ago, James Gunn made some bad tweets. Yesterday, 7/20/18, conspiracy theorist Mike Cernovich (Who, btw, was the dude who promoted Pizzagate, a theory that Hillary Clinton runs a child molestering ring underneath a pizzeria), took screenshots of the tweets he found (Probably because he has no life). 

What do I think? 

A: This is one of the dumbest reasons for someone getting fired I've heard in a while. It was 10 years ago! That was 6 years before Guardians of the Galaxy came out and 9 before Guardians Vol. 2 came out! 
I do not support pedophilia/rape in any way, but if Disney did not do an extensive background check before they met the guy, then why should they fire him now? Actors David Dastmalchian (Kurt from Ant-Man) and Dave Bautista (Drax) have also expressed disapproval about this move.

What does this mean? 
It means that the Guardians should probably stay dead, because if they're coming back and James Gunn isn't writing or directing for them, then it's going to suck.
