I just realized something. Bob keeps crediting James Gunn when he should be crediting Nicole Perlman.Winter soldier had just come out, and by that time, marvel had their holding pattern down, pretending that gotg was some landmark is really stupid. Also, fucking hell guys gotg wasn’t some masterpiece, and gotg 2 wasn’t even good, it’s not like he was some auteur genius that we’ll never see again. Its marvel, its not like James Gunn could make any direction that the studio didn't have approved by committee already.
Perlman was hired in '09 to do research on what Marvel properties would make good movies, and much to everyone's surprise she tapped GotG. If anyone deserves credit for success, it's her. Hell, she was the first woman to have a screenplay credit in the MCU with Guardians.
And yet Bob is all about James Gunn, all the time.
