You're right, they weren't. But he has since acknowledged those decade old tweets weren't funny and that he acted like an ass by making them.

Time to put out a surprise Captain Marvel trailer to distract everyone!I wouldn't be surprised at all if Disney does something by the end of this week just to try to calm things down.
Avengers infinity wars Blu-ray releases and drop the A4 title.Time to put out a surprise Captain Marvel trailer to distract everyone!
I honestly wouldn't blame the entire Guardians cast for refusing to work on the project under a different director. Put Disney's PR face to the proverbial fire. It's not like they need the money.Disney sure as hell has a bigger PR mess now thanks to jumping the gun so hard.
I need a copy and paste image showing he has long apologized for the jokes and has become a better person since. I don't know why people ignore that.

They don't have to accept his apology tho. Even if you're changed people will get on your case about not deserving success afterwards.I need a copy and paste image showing he has long apologized for the jokes and has become a better person since. I don't know why people ignore that.
Yeah, they were most likely expecting a pat on the back, this backfired badly for them from a PR point.This can't be what they were expecting at all. This is a real shit show.

Has Feige even said anything about this at all? Seems like it would be his place to comment, since he hired Gunn, not Disney.

Three things might happen:
1. Nothing happens and Disney keeps their mouths shut. And I find this to be a bad move from them since they WILL need to answer, at least from Feige or Iger.
2. Disney goes "fuck ya'll Gunn is back" and pisses off the Alt-Right.
3. Walt Disney Pictures CEO resigns. It's a PR disaster that started with him. Iger would ask for his head.
They've got to clue in eventually, right? I mean, this is a multi-prong war being waged on multiple social media fronts with the subtlety of a sledgehammer.Between this, Patton, and the Trevor Noah thing I'm losing my mind at how transparent this current moment is and how so many liberals are completely missing it. This is when you circle the fucking wagons.

4. They cancel GotG3. If they want to stand firm on their decision and the actors are now going to start raising a stink on social media they can just cancel the whole project. Pretty much shuts down all bad PR if there is no more movie.Three things might happen:

Shuts down all bad PR? More like throw gasoline on a fire4. They cancel GotG3. If they want to stand firm on their decision and the actors are now going to start raising a stink on social media they can just cancel the whole project. Pretty much shuts down all bad PR if there is no more movie.
Closing in on 150,000. Hope this hits the news cycle hard tomorrow
Well this will die down, till production starts on GotG3, then people will remember all over again and complain about Gunn. If they shut things down now, in a few months/year no one will have reason to bring this up again as there is no movie in production, no advertising, etc.

If Bryan Singer and Victor Salva can survive being actual pedophiles, I think Gunn and his disowned jokes are going to be fine.Well this will die down, till production starts on GotG3, then people will remember all over again and complain about Gunn.

So yeah I guess throw gasoline on the fire now to let it burn itself out and not worry about it later.
The only possibility of 3 happening is if GotG3 is cancelled and all the Guardian characters are erased from the MCU.Three things might happen:

I believe all of the main cast who have twitters have officially all commented in some way now

Alan Horn is 75 years old. His contract as Disney Pictures chairman expires at the end of this year after an extension in 2014. I don't think he even wants to continue because he originally retired when he stepped down from Warner Brothers and Iger personally asked him to come out of retirement to helm Disney. There's no resigning or firing here, he's not sticking around I think.3. Walt Disney Pictures Chairman resigns. It's a PR disaster that started with him. Iger would ask for his head.

Targeted attacks from the alt-right, most of which involve some degree of misrepresenting liberals who are prominent anti-trump voices.

So basically JLaw's performance in X-Men: Apocalypse.I'm guessing Bautista is contracted to do GotG3 anyway?
Maybe he can threaten to phone it in.
Seems that way.Sounds like that would make him an easy fall guy if Disney wanted to save face?

That's absolutely fucking ridiculous there's so many reasons why that would be counterproductiveWell this will die down, till production starts on GotG3, then people will remember all over again and complain about Gunn.

I have no clue what's happening here other than James Gunn apparently tweeted some fucked up stuff and is now fired from Guardians.
Why do people want him unfired?
It's been explained hundreds of times by now. Long and short: He already apologized for the tweets 6 years ago, and the tweets have been misrepresented to appear worse than they are.I have no clue what's happening here other than James Gunn apparently tweeted some fucked up stuff and is now fired from Guardians.
Why do people want him unfired?
Because it was 8-10 years ago, he apologized, and he's a better person today.I have no clue what's happening here other than James Gunn apparently tweeted some fucked up stuff and is now fired from Guardians.
Why do people want him unfired?
No. I don't have time.

Here is what I think most are upset about and it's not the movie. How does the left plan to win elections when an apologetic and redeemed ally of the left gets treated like this? It is a microcosm of the current political world we live in. The Right literally elected a President that said grab them by the pussy and had affairs and a ton of other horrible shit but their agenda is more important than the man. The left will eat their own. They will disavow those that aren't perfect (I don't want to use Putiry or Virtue test) or dont have pasts that align with their terms and conditions.
That is not a fair fight. He didn't hide or run from his past. He evolved and apologized. He fought the lefts fight. He supported movements and his movies showed that same growth. The world is messy and so are people. There is Grey in the world. This attitude is what should make the Left very scared about their political climate. The alt right can do this because the left allows it.
