Well it won't work, Disney, Marvel and Warner Bros., DC have sat on the knowledge that his use of humor from the past sparked controversy for nearly a whole year and since then not a soul has come out with any allegations and there have been no personal stories about any difficulty with working with him that were shared online publicly or to any executives or the law, and I'm sure there might have been some kind of investigation which based on current events looks to have led to nothing. So with the dust out of the room and coupled with the fact that Warner Bros. really would like Suicide Squad to be its answer to Guardians not just on an esthetic level but on quality and that nobody else wants to take the role of directing the third Guardians movie the decision to hire and re-hire him for both makes sense on a creative level. What James Gunn should probably do is going forward to not get into any political discussions on his social media and instead keep it on a professional basis strictly focused on his movie and television projects and share behind the scenes photos, concept art, and fan creations. It was politics which led to this whole messy situation to begin with.

Woooooooooooooooooooooo wegotthiscovered.com/movies/james-gunn-direct-guardians-galaxy-vol-3/According to the outlet, the decision to rehire Gunn was actually made months ago, following conversations between Disney bosses and the team at Marvel Studios. It’s also said that Walt Disney Studios president Alan Horn met with the filmmaker on multiple occasions to discuss the situation, and that he was persuaded by Gunn’s public apology and his handling of the situation. The news has apparently been confirmed with Marvel and Gunn’s camp. Don’t use WeGotThisCovered as a source. They are not reliable at all.

That was the first article that came up earlier when I searched 'james gunn' and it seems they're right...

Well, he has a point though, on a general level lots of democratic entertainers tend get less sting compared to republican entertainers when they say dumb stuff unless they do something really, really bad.

Eh.... such as? You've got Roseanne but she was sucked into the same zeitgeist of forced outrage as Gunn. Otherwise, I can only really think of Clint Eastwood talking to an empty chair, which was more poking fun, and Mel Gibson for being Mel Gibson.

Well, uh, if they were to do something that would have the law get involved in which case most people agree that they did something wrong and should face consequence, political affiliation being neither here or there. Sorry for being bit vague there.

Seriously? It was a RWNJ that brought up Gunn's tweets and got him fired to begin with...tweets he'd already addressed a few years ago. 'Look at this ebil librwul pweez fire him!'
Oh I know. I was here defending Gunn when this thing blew up. Just starting to get irritated with these politics-guys turning every thread into an sjw vs. anti-sjw rant. Yeah, that review of the Endgame trailer I posted in the Clark Gregg thread mentioned Trump while he was ranting against Captain Manpants We seem stuck with politics, dont we? Its the board I'm usually on. More active than here.

That's kinda good news. Boy is DC-Fan going to be torn Its not really good news, from SS perspective. Gotg is Gunns brainchild and presents conflict of interest. His mind wont be as focused on SS as Gotg3 Trouble seems brewing there for awhile. They seem to be losing actors.

He's trying to make it tit for tat when its not. Back then it was Roseanne. Now it's Carlson. That side seems to keep opening mouth/inserting foot, then expecting the left to play holier than them. I never thought Al Franken should have stepped down for entertainment crap.
