Barring all that nerd garbage, the DEI response is genuinely awful. Gunn is such a piece of trash coward. This administration's attitude towards people of color holding ANY position is terrible and is firing them left and right.

This loser is the creative head.

TAKE A FUCKING STANCE!

im sorry but i cant really take seriously that Gunn as some anticapitalist antifascist when WB is firing people working on a Wonder Woman game because one movie flopped. Making Ferngully 2 doesnt make up for how shitty his masters are and him by proxy for letting them run rampant

Hmm

"fiscally conservative" is the biggest ick phrase i've ever heard. everyone who's ever said that has just been a douche who hates poor people

JAMES GUNN:
"There are 3 bad-to-questionable DC billionaires in my Superman movie, all 3 projects we've released so far are about family-teams of outsiders killing fascists, we made a point to ONLY keep Blue Beetle - also about that."

INTERNET GUY:
"So empty. Needs a 9/11 allegory, maybe."

I'm sorry but Gunn has been incredibly quiet about Israel Vs. Palestine to the point where there were rumors he dropped a guy for being pro-Palestine from his movies. I can't trust that his antifascism isnt just the "America not fascist promise" positions like DC has done for 100 years now

What a maroon. What a nimcowpoop. It is to laugh.

It's wild that he doesn't parse the idea that maybe a creative director who finalized the direction of these projects months to years ago isn't being overly broadcasty about this in defiance to his boss. Like, it's the BUSINESS heads you need to hold accountable for this kinda stuff.

I wonder if the sympathetic robot hero would be at all an indicator of the writer's politics?

"It's good to kill Nazis" wasn't even the subtext of Creature Commandos. It was the entire, out loud, 100% text.

Though I do wish they hadn't underscored the Nazi killing with an Amanda Palmer song, given...just everything right now. Hopefully that decision had been made before the story started coming out and they were just legally stuck with it.

TIL Amanda Palmer is half of Dresden Dolls. Fuck. You owe me a positive fact to balance this one out. 😡

One I like to keep handy for situations like this: the scene in The Best Years of Our Lives where Fred throws the Nazi sympathizer out of the drugstore is based on something William Wyler actually did.

...Okay, we're cool.
