Guardians 3 Rumor: Disney Meeting With James Gunn For Rehiring

Click to expand...

this article is entirely based on nobody at disney commenting about Gunn because Iger is on vacation. the rehiring part is pure speculation. i think if Iger was gonna rehire Gunn, he would have sent some kind of message even from his sex resort about it. his silence can be taken as bad news as well. i guarantee that this will all be squashed when a new director is announced. the GotG cast will then say, James who?

here we go, same lack of info with a different headline.
Disney Unlikely to Rehire ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Director James Gunn (EXCLUSIVE)

Just hire Taika Waititi and be done with it.

They should hire George Lucas for it.

Nah dude, M. Knight Shyamalan.

Movie would end up with Bruce Willis somehow showing up.

This would probably be an improvement over GotG 2

The only problem with GotG2 was that it felt small (and maybe a few forced jokes). After how epic the first one was, the newest one felt like a mid-series episode of a television show. It was too self contained

2 is the newest one. Unless you're talking about the GotG inclusion with Avengers?

He was talking about 2 the entire time.

I re-watched GoftG last night.

Fuck it's great, head and shoulders ahead of all the other Marvel films.

Twitter jokes be damned, you've gotta have James Gunn directing these films!!

You pedophile apologist. How about you go find some 5 year olds and give James a call to give you a hand?

While I agree GotG was amazing, GotG2 wasn't worth a second watch for me because the story stunk.

Then I watched Infinity War and realized it was more the actors than Gunn and they just need a non-suck story for GotG3.

I doubt he would have pulled it off. He's been suffering TDS for a while now. It's rots your brain.

Gotg2 was just meh. I'm still salty they killed off Michael Rooker's character

That sendoff was amazing, though. I greatly enjoyed it.

Yeah I didn't think the second one was bad at all. Definitely not as good as the first one, but still one of the better Marvel movies.

I don't really get all the hate on GotG2. It's not as good as the first one, but the first one is amazing. There's plenty of room to be not as excellent as GotG and still be a good movie.

2nd one is missing a dance off I guess? I think it's a great movie to rewatch. Shit has everything, Stallone, Mary Poppins, Jack Burton... It's just more of the same as the first with great music, a fantastic cast, and great action.

Bunch of picky mother fuckers in this thread.

Meh. GotG was a dramatic comedy while GotG2 was damn near slapstick, like Ace Ventura 4: Ace in Space. It's one thing to undercut tension with humor to keep things light and it's another thing entirely to gut every single serious scene in a movie and fill it with forced humor. GotG2 is to GotG 1 as the Apocalypse Quicksilver scene is to the DoFP Quicksilver scene, failure to understand what made the original so good so lets just dial it to 11!

that DoFP quicksilver scene may be the greatest sequence ever shot in a comic book film. nothing compares to that.
