Angry DC Fans Attempt To Fire James Gunn With Tweets

“‘Gunn is a friend of Zack, he will do him justice’ my a**,” wrote @sameerj2003. We were unable to find any promises made by the “Guardians of the Galaxy” director that implied he would save a franchise nearly ten years in the water at this point. “This is BS!” exclaimed @TheNuGeekz. “THEY BETTER NOT REBOOT! ZASLAV, ABDY AND DE LUCA WANT THE SNYDER VERSE!” While The Hollywood Reporter did suggest that some Warner Bros. execs had considered one final outing for the 2016 “Justice League” cast, it doesn’t appear to align with James Gunn’s supposed vision for the future.

Several users, including @restoreZSJL, shared edited photos of old cast members holding up buttons that say “I Believe In Zack Snyder” — ironically borrowing the iconography of a more successful and entirely unrelated DC franchise. Many users were heartbroken over the loss of former franchise leads Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, and Gal Gadot, the latter two of whom may have prematurely whipped their fans up into a frenzy over sequels that may never be. “DC needs it’s Trinity [sic]. Always,” urged @SnyderQueen_, tweeting the hashtag directly at the Warner Bros. Twitter account.

Multiple tweets shared the same photo of Gunn with disgraced “Avengers” and “Justice League” director Joss Whedon, seemingly a bizarre attempt at proving some sort of moral connection between the two. @JustAnotherLiv2, for instance, captioned the picture with a rather dramatic quote from J.R.R. Tolkien: “Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made.”
