Looks up brother*

So you're arguing that nepotism is not really an issue because its widespread? That's a take. I wonder on what else could that logic be applied to.
I just looked it up and found out the Wachowskis are related to each other as well. I think I'm going to be sick. How is this kind of thing allowed? Why are there no systems in place to prevent such blatant nepotism from happening in this industry? I'm never gonna be able to watch the Matrix ever again...
Yes, clearly nepotism is exactly like capitalism.
You cracked the code.
I'm arguing that no one cares enough about it to change their behavior about this issue.
It can definitely be an issue but it's like infrastructure in the US, you'll never be elected advocating for bike lanes and public transit.
So the whole "people give shit to Gunn for nepotism" is bad faith of the highest order.
The things said about her are horrendous on Twitter. And apparently now people "can't trust" James Gunn cause of this and other things.
Plus they have been calling him a pedo even more now and are accusing his wife of helping him along with being a trophy wife.
They're unhinged.

It's always the Snyder cultists
edit: lol now they're targeting David Ayer because he posted in support of James and Jennifer

I worry about how often Gunn responds to all the pieces of shit on the internet. I don't know how he doesn't burn out from all the shit slung into his orbit.
Props on Gunn for defending his wife.
But my dude, you don't need to respond to every Twitter rando when most of them are trolls that have already made up their minds about you.

Yeah but Sam Raimi didn't destroy the greatest superhero cinematic universe that has ever existed like Gunn has.
Yes and she's a pretty decent actress with a major role in the behind the scenes stuff so it makes sense for her to pop up in the films, but Snyderverse fans don't exactly see reason.
You'd think they'd be satisfied with a pretty blonde white girl since that's their ideal.
Yeah dude is too online
I like the guy but there's no point responding to this shit
Delete Twitter, my man
Two things can be true. This can be (and absolutely is) sexism, and nepotism can be a bad thing.
People don't like nepotism in certain aspects or when it not them doing it .
So i just say fuck it .

Yeah, this is misogynistic bullshit and nothing more.
And all the complaining about nepotism is hilarious. Nepotism is only really a problem when someone undeserving gets to benefit from it. I'm certainly not holding my breath for everyone to suddenly turn on Robert Downey Jr., Laura Dern, George Clooney, Liza Minnelli, Drew Barrymore, Brandon Cronenberg, Jason Reitman, and on and on.

I'm not a fan of his wife's acting (or role) and I think she has an oddly random importance in DC projects given her character and personal level of fame.
I also roll my eyes at how big Kraglin has become in the Guardians franchise too.
But I can also not confront him with that shit because I'm not an asshole full of misguided anger and it's ultimately not a big deal.

People who are attacked should have the right to defend themselves without being called "defensive".
Love him in both. Fuck the haters and all the morons who just now found out about nepotism and have to make every goddamn topic about it but only selectively when they dislike the thingYeah lol people love him
If I ever make a movie, of course I'm casting all my friends and any family I want in it. The fuck you gonna do about it?
There wasn't a single flick he made with Helena which didn't have people complaining about him casting her.
People should look up Clint Howard and see how many B movie gems he was in and find what small roles he played on Ron's flicks.
Misogyny? From Twitter user "TRUTH"? The one who gets really angry at nerdy stuff? The one with the anime avatar? This one?

Say it ain't so.
It's just trolling going on. It's been a problem on Era with the brand wars. Snyder nor the fans apparently have anything to do with this.
Anime avatars and normal Snyder fans catching strays in here
Some people just can't miss the chance to put down stuff they don't like huh

People like this twitter clown don't deserve the oxygen, but at the same time I get the temptation to publicly shame them.
I've only seen Holland in the role as Hartcourt and she's excellent there, to boot. The loser in question sounds like a hardcore misogynist, so that explains a lot.

Unfortunately that's just a problem with the internet, and feeding the trolls isn't helping
I really don't understand why a top level film executive is going around replying to random ass losers on Twitter.
Does he not have real work to do?
Gunn has said that he's fine with posting on Twitter like that, I don't see why it's anybody's business but his own.
They'll go fucking nuclear if Gunn ever pays Snyder a basic friendly visit.
"Fucking James Gunn and his nepotism. Only giving jobs to relatives and friends. He should hire Zack Snyder instead!"
Gunn: "My friend Zack..."
Bunch of fucking right-wing dipshits.
Most industries are flush with nepotism. People are going use their influence to help out their friends and family given the chance no matter the industry. It's human nature.
I saw that earlier, in response he should put her in everything, the new DCEU should be the Hollandverse and I don't mean Tom.
