Dude doesn't even admit what he did, much less show remorse.

The guy is also a commercially rated pilot of planes and helicopters. It’s not like being blacklisted from Hollywood is going to put the guy on the streets, he still has job options. 

You mean fox, the same people who hired Bryan Singer?

There are plenty of jobs in waste management and sewer maintenance, far away from potential victims.

Not defending this casting, but it is in keeping with the spirit of the Predator series anyway. They cast Sonny Landham as Billy in the first one, although the insurance company required that they hire a bodyguard, not to protect him, but to protect the rest of the cast FROM him.

In general, I believe in second chances but... maybe a second chance for someone like this dude is serious and intensive therapy and a job where he can make a living- so long as he does no more harm... not be in a big Hollywood movie.

While the other actors in the film—Boyd Holbrook, Sterling K. Brown, Thomas Jane, Trevante Rhodes and Keegan-Michael Key—were asked to comment, none did.

Well the actor’s scenes were cut from the release, where as Gunn’s offensive tweets remain up last I saw. Regardless, most companies would have brushed it off, but Disney is in a unique spot.

So what you’re saying is Del Toro helped save the Harry Potter film franchise as Prisoner of Azkaban debuted most of the techniques that saved the franchise. Getting the characters out of those stuffy robes so they could actually act and be loose was genius.  Some things dont translate from page to screen and Curion…

Seems less a case of “don’t trash-talk Harry Potter” and more “read the fucking source material if you’re bidding for a project”. It’s just a matter of respect.

hmmmm, well....hmmm.

Hah, funny, the third movie turned the whole thing around for me, I hated how Christopher Columbus tried to hard to stick exactly to the source material to the point where it was boring. Alfonso Cuarónreally breathed new life into the series and made the whole thing fresh for me.

For all the things the books missed (which I admit there is plenty), they really lucked out regarding the cast they got. I can’t imagine them getting actors that would come close to the performances in the movies. Iconic is a word that gets thrown around a lot, but it fits some of those parts. 

And yet, to me this was when the movie series started getting good. 

You’re alone in this opinion. Most people seemingly think it’s the best, some don’t, but I’ve *never* heard anyone say it’s the worst.

Many other Harry Potter fans regarded as “The Dark Knight” of the movie series. Not just because it was darker compared to Chris Columbus’ first two films, but because it was a huge jump in quality orchestrated by an ‘artistic’ filmmaker instead of a mass market crowd-pleaser.

It’s still too soon, but sometime down the line, I’d love to see a 7 season, 8/10 episode retelling of the series. Particularly with one creator at the helm–an aspiring Del Toro, if you will–so it’s a cohesive vision. There’s so much that the movies missed, and, because they were made in tandem with the release of the…

Jeez. I never thought Del Toro turned into Hellboy when a muggle shit on Harry Potter.

And sexy vampires, don’t forget the sexy vampires.

I think Zombie movies work best as Comedies.

The only zombie films I ever took seriously were 28 Days / Weeks. I thought those were pretty good but otherwise it’s always the same thing over and over.
