Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Report: James Gunn Fired from Guardians of the GalaxyLooks like this is true. From the Hollywood Reporter: "The offensive attitudes and statements discovered on James' Twitter feed are indefensible and inconsistent with our studio's values, and we have severed our business relationship with him," Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn said in a statement Friday. On Thursday, Gunn tweeted in response to the tweets being resurfaced, "Many people who have followed my career know, when I started, I viewed myself as a provocateur, making movies and telling jokes that were outrageous and taboo. As I have discussed publicly many times, as I've developed as a person, so has my work and my humor." He added: "It's not to say I'm better, but I am very, very different than I was a few years ago; today I try to root my work in love and connection and less in anger. My days saying something just because it's shocking and trying to get a reaction are over." The offensive tweets came to light after conservative website The Daily Caller dug up the social media posts, which were mostly posted in 2008 and 2009. Soon after, conservative personalities were tweeting to followers to confront Gunn at Comic-Con. Gunn had been expected to be at Sony's presentation on Friday. Insiders say Gunn is not expected to be part of the panel now.I don't feel great about that, if true, given that he was fired due to fake rage over what seems to be nonsense. But then, sometimes you have to take a scalp just to demonstrate to the scalp-takers that you can respond in kind.

Ordinarily I don't hold stuff someone posts on social media against them unless its pretty outrageous and really awful but this guy kind of specialized in horrific, over the top, truly godawful stuff.
I had to stop following Rodney Carrington on social media because he'd get drunk and try out new bits and sometimes they were so horrendous and way too far that I just was repelled. I can laugh as pretty bad extreme stuff like Dave Atell, Andrew 'Dice' Clay, or even Sam Kinison used to trot out. But there's a point at which you say "no, dude, just no."

James Gunn was responsible for the feel and hilarity of the Guardians of the Galaxy movies (although the second one was less fun and more just grim). Without him I don't see another director/writer pulling it off.

Well, you may think it's unfortunate in principle, but practically it's unavoidable. GotG is a kid's franchise compared to the other Marvel movies. They need to focus on that market. Can you imagine parents bringing their kids to the theatre all the while thinking that the director is a guy who wrote "I know it might be sick, but that story [about a monkey ejaculating on a child] makes me extremely happy". At that point it's not a question of being overly prudish. They're just not going to trust this guy any longer. The risk of losing out on the kids' market is simply too big for Disney to stick to their Gunn. Posted by: Steve and Cold Bear at July 20, 2018 05:06 PM (/qEW2) 91

I don't like people being fired for stupid crap they said. Especially a long time ago. Part of this is self defense: I've said a lot of stupid stuff in my time and no doubt will again in the future.
But mostly its first amendment and the basic sticks and stones argument. What you say should be protected and free, not attacked and punished. But this is their game. These are their rules. And I think we're at a point which the only way out of this to the end where we get more sane again is through it at full speed ahead. If we don't make them suffer from the same stupid rules they impose on us, they'll not only never learn, but destroy us. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at July 20, 2018 05:08 PM (39g3+) 97

James Gunn has decided to spend more time with his family.
A group of Dems in DC (and really, that's all there is in DC as far as permanent residents there, 94% voted for the ShrillBeast) is attempting to get Trump's DC hotel's liquor license revoked. Due to, get this, the owner's Low Moral Character. This, in the town where they reelected the mayor to the DC city council after he got out of federal prison on drug charges, then elected as mayor yet again. Oh, and they put up a statue of him too. But Trump is of too low moral character to dispense liquor there. Posted by: GnuBreed at July 20, 2018 05:11 PM (0ogQG) 120

What makes me furious about the David French's of the world, and fuck that NROnik in particular, is that they offer not a single solitary useful alternative. We Are Better Than This does not pay the damn bills. Also, what, precisely are you better than? Protecting those who share your principles? Standing up and stating, loudly and firmly, that the full weight of the law must be brought to bear to protect freedom of religion and freedom of speech and that this applies not only to government actions but to private corporations who use private statements made by private citizens in their private conversations? Confronting, directly and by name, those peers of their on the Left who fling accusations of racist, white supremacist, homophobe, Nazi, etc. with gleeful abandon? Because, you see, by deeds, not words, those are the principles which the Frenchs of the world see to be better than. Posted by: alexthechick - Superelite Ragebunny.

I could write a book. Marvel's "golden age" will be over with Avengers 4
I think when film historians look back, they'll say that it ended with Avengers 2. There were a few small bright spots, but it peaked there and with that disappointment, began a downward turn. Yeah, the numbers are huge, lots of money, but the charm and the spark are gone. It doesn't feel gee whiz fun any more. The like a Viking joke had been a aos meme forever What exactly about what he said has anything to do with Vikings?

1. It really sucks that stuff like this happens all the time. 2. Until they feel their own rules hurting them badly, it'll continue to suck.

The thing with Gunn is, his twatter twats are accurate depictions of the man himself. They're not just "jokes" or "trying to get a reaction". Grab a DVD copy of Slither (An awesome horror-comedy, by the way. Gunn is a prick, but he's a talented filmmaker.). Watch the video extras. As I recall, they had lots of candid video of him saying some really awful shit. The guy has no restraint for his mouth, and he absolutely DESPISES anyone who isn't a leftist.

The eulogy was so moving, I kicked a baby in pud. I don't mean to argue or be contrary, quite the opposite, I find the discussion of what makes things funny and what makes humor fascinating because as everyone here knows all too well I'm not a humorous person at all. And as everyone here knows, you are. But I don't see that at all. For something work as humor, there has to be a connection, even if its ironic. "she's so beautiful she'd make a Bishop kick out a stained glass window" If there's no connection between the two things, at most you just have surprise and shock, which can make people laugh but not because they find it funny so much as discomfort and surprise.

The way Gunn writes most of these "jokes" is that he puts them in the first person. So it seems more like an expression of his tastes than a joke. If he wanted to mock the Expendables, why wouldn't he say something like "Yay, just what we needed. Another hyper-macho movie aimed at sublimated homosexuals"? Instead he just throws out a grotesque statement and the intent isn't clearly humor. Odd that a professional writer can't express himself clearly.

Yeah, because that's a callback, it reminds people of a funny time or line, which brings back humorous memories. It doesn't have to be that funny to work, because it ties things together in a pleasing and aesthetic manner. Claiming your testosterone is so high now that you have to cuck panthers and jaguars. Right, but that's funny and it works because its related to excessive manliness. Its like the old eskimo/polar bear joke: its someone so badass and manly they can rape a dangerous wild animal. That works, because its funny and it ties together. But a child??? Where's the connection? Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at July 20, 2018 05:29 PM (39g3+) 244

See the "Bear f*cker" stuff brings me to an analysis of humor. Just a guy appearing to copulate with a bear: sort of surprising and shocking, its awful in such a way you might laugh as a nervous reaction to something wrong, but not really funny in and of its self. What made it funny was the setup by the Broken Lizard guys (you still have that Halloween costume?) and the reaction of the cops, really not sure how to respond to this call. Their statements just make it hilarious.
So its not the act its self, its the way you set it up and make it work as a whole, bringing the audience along. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at July 20, 2018 05:35 PM (39g3+) Posted by: Blanco Basura - It's OK, I'm with the banned at July 20, 2018 05:35 PM (hXGq0) 293

Someone sent out old Tweets written by Brewers relief pitcher Josh Hader right before he pitched in the ASG. The tweets were offensive by anybody's standards - but they were written 7 years ago, when he was a 17 year old hs student. Fans wearing his jersey turned it inside out during the game and his parents, who were at the game, were shamed by the Good People, the people who never ever did anything dumb when they were 17. Of course, he apologized - and of course, the SJW's want his head on a platter. He committed his sins before he was a pro player and so there's not much mlb can do except send him to "sensitivity training" because the 24 year old Hader must be just like the 17 year old. The SJWs will have to be content with booing him every time he takes the mound. What nobody seems to care about is that some shit hung on to those tweets and waited to ruin the proudest moment of Hader's life by releasing them at that moment. That's an evil, vindictive thing to do. Posted by: Donna&&&&&&V sez don't you dare walk the damn pitcher at July 20, 2018 05:44 PM (H80UQ) 374

Na. I was thinking of Jim Messina.
He was only good when he was with Kenny Loggins Fans wearing his jersey turned it inside out during the game and his parents, who were at the game, were shamed by the Good People, the people who never ever did anything dumb when they were 17. Exactly, that's who I was thinking about. Even 7 years is a really long time for someone his age. We need Jesus to show up and say "cast the first stone" here, for crying out loud. Who didn't say or do something really regrettable or embarrassing at that age? Or ever? Completely ridiculous, we're slouching into little girls throwing fits territory, this is witch trials country.

CT, I say this with peace and love, it's interesting that you don't get why some things are funny.
I think we all can't figure out why people find some things funny. I watch some anime and I know that what they showed was supposed to be hilarious, and maybe in Japan it worked but... its just idiotic to me, or even annoying. Humor isn't the same for everyone, especially culturally. For us as Americans, British humor really connects, but not so much some other cultures, like French or German. I have kind of a weird mind, I like to know not just how something works, but why. Its like picking the lock on a treasure chest, it opens up so much more when I can puzzle it out and make it work. Then I understand more of life and how people are. And that applies much more broadly than just the single topic. Sometimes we just cannot know, and that's frustrating. And I expect its annoying or tedious for other people to be inside my head when I'm doing this, too. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at July 20, 2018 05:51 PM (39g3+) 425

Gunn is NOT the victim of conservative policy and perspective. He is the victim of liberal insanity. Collectively, we need to remember this example. - We need to REINFORCE these damn and insane rules until most people require UNIVERSAL change. I have absolutely no animus against Gunn. I don't know about his politics, his personal life, his public life, or what his favorite color might be. - Wholly irrelevant. These crazy fuckin' rules must be applied to one and all until most scream: "This is bloody insane!" (By that I don't mean we should insist on applying them to our own. Take for example the Rush Limbaugh versus Fluck incident. - Nastily enough, the left will "take care of" that shit. I just meant we should be hell bent in always applying it those who are not obviously right of center.) We especially need to insist that anyone who might remotely be associated with left-of-center causes (like Gunn) be brutally subject to these insane rules. It's nothing personal against Gunn; rather, it's every damn ounce of strength we can possibly muster against the insane, soulless left. Posted by: Cold Civil War at July 20, 2018 05:53 PM (Z2PYk) 433

IIRC, Weinstein, Spacey, Lauer have all have had incidents where weird behavior was noticed and/or reported but it was shrugged off. I can see a Disney honcho looking at the tweet jokes, looking at Gunn's tweets with Huston Huddleton and thinking: we don't want to keep him only to have some kid(s) come forward over the next few weeks, months and bite us in the a$$.

As the left continues down the French Revolution path of denouncing everyone who is insufficiently revolutionary, they're taking a lot of people down with them. If this was just about leftists destroying other leftists, say, college professors taking down film actors, or news anchors destroying leftist pundits, I'd shrug at it. But they aren't willing to restrict themselves to just their own kind.
Its like Islamic terrorism: most of their victims are fellow Muslims.

Why did they call it Disco, anyway? Where did that name come from?
From the French, "discotheque" (pretend I have the correct accents; I'm new at this posting thing). That French word was itself derived from "bibliotheque," meaning "library." If the bibliotheque was the place where you kept and accessed the books, the discotheque was the place where you kept and accessed les disques, the records. i.e. a dance club.

As the left continues down the French Revolution path of denouncing everyone who is insufficiently revolutionary, they're taking a lot of people down with them. If this was just about leftists destroying other leftists, say, college professors taking down film actors, or news anchors destroying leftist pundits, I'd shrug at it. But they aren't willing to restrict themselves to just their own kind.

We find a lot of humor in being surprised. The joke leads us in one direction, and then surprises us by going somewhere else.
This is a shock, and makes our brain stutter a bit as we catch on. Shock comedians confuse the shock of being confused about the story, and just vulgar shock at what is being said. So funny is when you think the story is going one direction, and your brain is already filling in the next line, but the joke goes somewhere else. Shock. Not funny is when a fat slob starts telling you about masturbation. (Louie ck). Yes it is shocking, but without humor.

Some bands took some funk/disco themes and made it work better, like the Stones or Greatful Dead. ELO took disco in a completely different direction. And there are a few disco songs (like there are a few modern pop songs which weren't awful (Disco Inferno, for example). Some late funk/early disco stuff was pretty solid. But it turned really ugly, really fast.
It was just too easy to come up with a disco riff and sing crap over it and go gold because every dance club in the big cities would play it no matter how bad it was, and coked up people hoping to get laid would dance to it. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at July 20, 2018 06:11 PM (39g3+) 532

What's interesting is that Woody Allen says that his character, that awkward dorky guy, he based entirely on Bob Hope's character. His moves, his jokes, his reactions, etc. He said it was a way of getting through life despite being very shy and awkward. He turned on that guy and could be successful in social situations. If you watch them side by side it becomes really obvious, even though Woody's delivery is not the same. Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at July 20, 2018 06:20 PM (39g3+) 562

And with given individuals you'll frequently hear things like: "I was for the Iraq war, but then ... and now I'm not." "I was pro-choice, but then ... and now I'm not." "I was for the death penalty, but then ... and now I'm not." You never, ever hear a leftist change their mind. On the occasions when one does, they have to leave altogether like #WalkAway, because there is no room for heterodoxy.

If there's no connection between the two things, at most you just have surprise and shock, which can make people laugh but not because they find it funny so much as discomfort and surprise.

I notice from reading and listening to testimonies from WalkAway, that it bears up my operating theories about liberal politics. My main theory about liberalism is that it's feel-good politics, and quite a bit self-flattery.
In contrast, the WalkAway people appear to cite reality, to the extent that they are not as interested in flattering themselves anymore, but coming to grips with where they really stand. They are diminished, and partially ashamed. Posted by: Axeman at July 20, 2018 06:31 PM (YOhRS) Posted by: Grumpguy at July 20, 2018 06:36 PM (r3sPS) 598
I must have a very high pain thresh hold. I really enjoyed both Guardians movies. I loved the humor. I got a giggle out of Rocket and Groot. I liked the interplay between Gemora and the Star Lord. To me, the movies were just fun. But then, I really don't look for great meaning or social value in movies. I just want to be entertained.

Does the world really need public pedo jokes? You can do OK without making jokes about little girls. Maybe we're just returning to pre-60s standards and that's a good thing. It's gets out of hand, I agree, when you're in you're own living room and some idiot tapes you and leaks it. There has to be a red light district where this stuff is OK. Conservatives always used to be prudes who said, just keep the red light district to one defined area. That's hard to do today.

(1) When anybody tells you this is an overreaction against #Gunn, keep this in mind: this is a guy who helmed a HUGELY profitable franchise... and they fired him anyway. At the same time, Disney still employs a convicted pedophile at the Disney Kids' Channel. Hollywood coddles its pedophiles...ask the director of the Jeepers Creepers movies... so for them to behead this golden goose strongly suggests there is something else going on backstage...
Posted by: Richard McEnroe at July 20, 2018 07:28 PM (Dhcvl) 601
And is nobody else bothered by the idea of someone who finds pedophilia a source of humor attending a convention full of young people?

again I don't really find this joke funny any more but that's just because it's an OLD joke.
Like... about ten years old. Like, about the time ago when Gunn was writing these jokes. But, look: #TheNewRules aren't kind, but they are #TheNewRules. Posted by: ace at July 20, 2018 05:23 PM (PA9oZ) ****************** So pedophilia jokes are funny, as long as they're new. I see. Posted by: Born Free at July 20, 2018 10:10 PM (B+Qbt) 604
I really don't think jokes about pedophila are ever funny, so I shouldn't have called this man's comments "jokes".
Posted by: FenelonSpoke at July 20, 2018 05:29 PM (AllCR) Totally agree. I actually sent an angry letter (probably never read) years ago to Jay Leno during his "Michael Jackson and little boys" joke phase" Every joke hints at anal rape. Yeah - if you are a molestation victim or the mom of a young rape victim, that's probably just hilarious. Fenelon - I wanted to tell you I read that book "Everything happens for a reason and other lies" by Kate Bowler. Excellent book - devoured it in an afternoon. The appendix -what not to say to a cancer sufferer, is great advice for anyone dealing with a personal disappointment or tragedy. Thanks for the recommendation!

I understand what Dan McLaughlin is saying about not becoming part of the rage mob because eventually it will come for you. But the left has been pulling Alinsky's rules on the right for forty years and it's about time they were made to live up to their own rules.
