Everyone chioses where their line in the sand is. This is his. I support and respect it. Remember too that Batista doesn't need Marvel. He was set for life before he set foot on his first movie set. He's doing the right thing.
AS much as Bautista Loves Gunn and wants to help him... if i was him i would be campaigning for DC to hire him for the new batman movie or something.... like, do you get what i mean? of wanting to help his friend by finding him a better job? by going With him to that new job and get cast in his movie? Imagine if Bautista said he was interested in playing a batman character and he wanted Gunn to direct it or something.... THAT would be positive support.
because it creates positive buzz,
that would manipulate the social media to talk positively about Gunn and speculate what they could do for DC
but in this 24 hour social media culture we go from controversy to controversy right? do you ever hear anyone talking about roseanne anymore? or do you even hear anyone talk about Miley Cyrus or any of other older controversies?
we have so much world coverage and so much stuff going on with twitter and facebook that we jump from one drama to the next almost weekly...
most people started to forget the James Gunn thing already, like most people don't think about Roseanne anymore. (I Know people might always be offended by what she said, maybe for life,) but as far as our social media culture goes, it becomes old news. it is what it is, every day something new floods social media. (specially with trump doing something controversial every month) im not talking about individuals like us talking about it here in our little corner of the internet, im talking about the whole social media aspect with the hashtags and the retweets,
Bautista is a big hollywood figure, he has millions of followers, when he makes a comment it moves the entire social media culture.
