Elon Musk Fires James Gunn in a DC Movies Parody

James Gunn, thank you for being here. Oh, no, no.

Thank you, Mr. Musk, for this invite. Hey, James. Hey.

So what's going on? I have no idea. Same here.

Are you happy to be on the Zoom meeting, Gail, with Mr. Gunn?

I can and I can't at the same time. I understand, Gail.

Okay. Well, and what about the fantastic duo?

Do you want to say anything to the guy who took away your DC jobs?

Yeah, yeah. Uh... Uh, okay. We'll come back.

Just gather your thoughts. So what's this about, Elon?

You want a cameo in one of my DC movies?

Your movies, right. So listen to what we've got coming out soon.

Oh, this I gotta hear. Okay, great. First, we got a TV show about Alfred in college, and he's learning to be a butler.

We're gonna make a trilogy like Lord of the Rings, but of Ra's al Ghul finding the Lazarus Pit with no Batman.

Bad idea. Ben Stiller, you're only... Anyways, we're gonna make a rom-com of Tom Arthur, Jonathan Metz.

Yee, eat that. Um, excuse me. Yes? Just shut up.

Good burn. Okay. Well, I'm the co-CEO of DC Studios, so I don't have to listen to you guys.

Well, you actually gotta listen to me. Why do you say that?

You don't own DC. I got big investments in Skydance. And? Oh, shoot.

Skydance owns DC. We have been losing money, and we need to get a return on our investments. Oh, you will.

I didn't tell you about the show about Jimmy Olsen. Oh, geez.

Henry, what do you think about a show about Jimmy?

I-- Does it get any nerdier? I mean... You think this will make a profit? No.

Okay, check this. Next year is our big sequel to Superman called Man of Tomorrow.

Here, let me fix the poster for you. Now it's gonna read correctly.

Man, tomorrow I need a job. Pack your bags, you're no longer the CEO.

Wait, what does that mean? You is fired. No.

Yeah. Hey there, man. This can't, this can't be happening. This can't be happening.

Oh, it is, 'cause you is fired. Hey, I'm worried, boss. Does that mean I'm fired too?

Well, it all depends on what your new boss has to say.

Welcome back, Zack Snyder. Yeah.
