Riddle me this: Gunn screwed up, and got fired. But if he can get fired for doing something stupid, then why does the MCU still have Robert Downey Jr?
Possibly cause Downey did lose his entire career and went to rehab for his addictions. If I'm not mistaken he has also been Pardoned from his prior criminal charges. It's an impossible to compare case. On the one hand you have someone who screwed up and just said sorry. On the other hand you have someone who screwed up and Paid the price during the 90s until 04 with criminal charges, rehab and other elements.

Ah. Makes sense.

Probably because RDJ served his debt to society (and was doing damage to himself) In Gunn's case, he never really got punished. He actually got the break of his life in directing Guardians. Also I am willing to bet most people did not hear about his tweets until now (unless you were an avid Gunn follower) With the outrage culture he didn't stand a chance. I probably wouldn't have fired him but can completely understand why Disney does not want someone making multiple creepy jokes about children attached to them when they are a family brand.

The Outrage culture of america will be our death one day.

When people get outraged about everything it drowns out things to actually be outraged about. It's like the boy who cried wolf.
Agreed, we should be outraged by what Gunn has said in the past (Don't get me wrong they are disturbing) but we can't let outrage completely destory the logical discussion of Firing someone, suspending, sending to therapy. Outrage culture we have only allows for once option for every instance.

I'm also debating on doing one - though there wouldn't be much too it because it's short and I tend to not take many pics because I try to be off my phone. But having this view back would be nice.

Lol good tune.

Btw if anyone hasn't seen it our very own @D Hindley has a trip report thread that is really going in depth into some non-Disney parks all across the midwest and northeast US - worth a read!

I know the feeling. I'm bad at taking photos on trips so we shall see how this upcoming one will go for me. I'm hoping that I'll be better.

Pretty random shoutout, but it’s appreciated.

More trip reports from everyone! :p Wanna see your brief report, @skullmt354. If you didn’t get enough photos, maybe @MonorailRed could illustrate the trip.

Maybe live updates from Japan, Vox? We all want to live vicariously through you. How else am I gonna make it psychologically while simultaneously touring and live-reporting Mainland China?

I plan on doing updates. I should have unlimited data while I'm over there so I could live stream a bit. Maybe do some live streaming while in Tokyo Disneyland. :p

I'll see what I can do, it's funny because that's not even my photo it's from Red:hilarious:
