Firing Gunn is ridiculous but in today's climate any studio would have fired him its not a Disney thing.

I feel like it's a Disney thing. Mostly because the other studios couldn't afford the hit to their schedules. Maybe not though. It's a weird time.

Gunn should sue for defamation. Cernovich keeps falling him a pedophile over and over.

Unless there's something else to see here... I would absolutely do everything legally possible to Cernovich, yes.

If some enraged Marvel fanboy murders Mike Cernovich for ruining GOTG 3, it will be the first good thing nerd culture has ever given to the world

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

All the palm trees in Halloween really detract from my enjoyment of the movie these days.

Yeah, I'm really excited for this because it sounds like it will actually be FUN, not a hollow reboot like the late 90s/early 2000s stuff, nor the cold and detached blood porn that Zombie made. This sounds like it has a heart to it, which is exactly what I need in my horror flicks.
“Heart” seems like a very odd thing to want in a horror movie

Maybe not the right word, but I need to care about the characters, and some light humor helps too. It's why I thought It was so effective, and why I can't stand stuff like Hostel.
I think it all has a place.
