This isn't Hollywood, but I can't help but feel that the idea started with Arenanet firing two devs (Summary here: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-07-06-arenanet-fires-two-guild-wars-2-writers-over-twitter-exchange-with-youtuber). While I don't think anyone had the intent to get these two devs fired, it did show how conservative companies were to preserve the fragile feelings of their (mostly male) fanbase, even when those devs weren't necessarily acting as representatives of Arenanet, to the extent that talking poo poo back to someone being a dick is grounds for termination? I guess the root question I have is why the gently caress does anyone use Twitter, especially when it expressly offers preferential service and protections to Nazis?

Remember 10 years ago when we didn't live in a country where Nazis were rising in power? Man, good times.

Michael Rooker also quit Twitter in disgust iirc, but unless there are flashback sequences, I doubt he's coming back for Guardians 3.

The natural evolution of Disney decision making would be to replace James Gunn with a completely uncontroversial director, like Victor Silva.

This doesn't relate to Hollywood, but it relates to Marvel. They fired one of their Star Wars (comics) writers for calling shitheads such as convicted felon Dinesh D'souza and Ben Shapiro shitheads. https://twitter.com/ChuckWendig/sta...r%3D124%23pti21 More info here: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/marvel-fires-star-wars-writer-chuck-wendig-1151966
