In no way do I condone Gunn's behavior, whether joking or not, but c'mon. It's tweets from several years ago. Disney is about to basically throw away a billion dollar franchise over this when Gunn wrote a line about Star Lord's ship being covered in a dry bodily substance? Seriously? People change. Just because that's who he was then doesn't mean it's who he is now. Stupid move on Disney's part, in my eyes. Who knows if the cast will even stick around -- Disney could've inadvertently jeopardized the franchise on what seemed like a knee-jerk reaction.
Have you read any of his tweets? He “jokes” about sex acts with children. Absolutely disgusting and certainly not aligned with anything Disney represents. I don’t think anyone at Disney cared about a single movie franchise when firing him, when the alternative would having a company whose whole business is families associated with such an individual.
