So I am only seeing this on twitter so far so trying to confirm, but reports are coming out that James Gunn has been removed as director of the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise
Figured something would happen once those old tweets resurfaced but surprised so quickly

"BREAKING: JAMES GUNN has reportedly been removed as director of the GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY franchise following old tweets that have come to light. Developing..."
Edit: Hollywood Reporter also reporting this: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/james-gunn-exits-guardians-galaxy-vol-3-1128786
Edit 2: @Disney statement: "The offensive attitudes and statements discovered on James’ Twitter feed are indefensible and inconsistent with our studio’s values, and we have severed our business relationship with him"
Wow. What a disgusting POS. There seems to be a lot there, not just a single TUI incident.NEWS

News: Disney sued by dog trainer who takes poodles to parks
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/busi...sney-service-dogs-poodles-20180719-story.html
I think this case will be interesting. The trainer is probably violating the ADA requirement that the dogs must be individually trained.
"Service animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities."
https://www.ada.gov/service_animals_2010.htm
It also appears that an animal in training is not defined as a service animal by the ADA. Maybe she's basing her claim on a Florida State Law?
https://www.ada.gov/regs2010/service_animal_qa.html
Q6. Are service-animals-in-training considered service animals under the ADA?
A. No. Under the ADA, the dog must already be trained before it can be taken into public places. However, some State or local laws cover animals that are still in training.

I don’t get how these tweets have only just surfaced? Were these apparently deleted or do Disney just not do checks these days on who they hire?
In no way do I condone Gunn's behavior, whether joking or not, but c'mon. It's tweets from several years ago. Disney is about to basically throw away a billion dollar franchise over this when Gunn wrote a line about Star Lord's ship being covered in a dry bodily substance? Seriously? People change. Just because that's who he was then doesn't mean it's who he is now. Stupid move on Disney's part, in my eyes. Who knows if the cast will even stick around -- Disney could've inadvertently jeopardized the franchise on what seemed like a knee-jerk reaction.
