Should WB hire James Gunn when he tweeted out those disgusting jokes?

Deal with it.
Shouldn't this whole forum be completely unemployable if Gunn's jokes are the standard on which people get fired?

Well, we're already completely unemployable, but for other reasons.

I think Gunn could do interesting things with them. The first movie had plenty of problems but the casting and characters weren't it. Crocodile man is just as ridiculous a concept as a raccoon with guns.

In his case he doesn't care whether it's grown man rear end or little boy rear end.

Glad that the company that said "maybe we can get that Guardians money by throwing shitloads of licensed music into Suicide Squad and editing the living hell out of it" is finally dropping the act and just getting the guy they wanted to ape so badly, too bad about the bad jokes thing though

Shoulda pulled a Bryan Singer and actually raped some kids, then he'd get to keep working and be asked to direct GRRRL POWER Red Sonja.

An alt-right lynch mob needed a blood sacrifice in revenge for their lord and savior, Rosanne "I THOUGHT THE BITCH WAS WHITEEEEE" Barr.

They were purposely unwilling to understand there was a huge, huge, huge difference dead-set on being offended by obvious loving jokes and taking them literally.

The movie he should start it with the cast of the first movie going on a mission and then they all die before the opening credits so he can fix the drat movie with characters that aren't poo poo.

Including the woman that created the team that caused the problem in the first place and murdered a room full of people because she forgot security clearance checks. Just open the movie with her getting the electric chair.

Blame the comics for this. Although many characters did die, the series actually elevated characters like Deadshot and Captain Boomerang from being an obscure Batman villain and a joke Flash villain respectively into characters people take seriously. Deadshot apparently was on a 'no-kill' list thanks to Suicide Squad.
