Statement On The Firing Of Gina Carano

The thoroughly unpleasant fact of reality is that the Disney Company (and Hollywood in general) is run by a bunch of unimaginative twerps.  It's the kind of mentality that wants to maximize profits but is unwilling to try something distinctly new or different.  Thus the glut of sequels and the ongoing cinemisation of the successful television series.  Even if the project isn't a sequel or a series adaptation, they'll still attempt to reduce risk by only combining elements that appeared to have worked in the past.  Thus The Adventures of Pluto Nash, a movie that combines the elements of Eddie Murphy, Computer Generated Imagery, with the Sci-Fi environment, and still turns out to be an unwatchable piece of crap.  (When I saw the trailer at the 2002 Convergence, my thought was, oh its Moon Zero Two: The Next Generation.)
