    I applaud Gal for making the stand (if she really said this, has anyone else reported it?) but I wonder if the reality of the situation will force her hand. The arc of history may bend towards justice but it isn't there yet.
    Gadot will win. Ratner is done.

      If Ratner is reasonable. But not if he asks for the moon...or just refuses to go away on principle.

      We could have a situation where WB isn't able to get rid of him and then what does Gadot do?

        She doesn’t do the sequel. I believe her.

          The bad publicity/hot issue will be massive if they DON'T get rid of Ratner (either pay him off, find some clause in the contract for personal behavior/etc).
          Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

            Ellen Page post on Facebook about him is devastating. He's done.

                If it came down between choosing to recast GG or pay Ratner to go away WB would have a public relations disaster if they choose the former. DECU is on shaky ground and WW has been it's only genuine bright spot.

                  Then she breaks her contract, with all the ramifications that entails.

                  I'm on her side here, I just don't see this having a happy ending. Ratner has absolutely no incentive to walk away from likely his last payday. If a morals clause even exists it would have to be proven in a court of law that he broke it. I adore Ellen Page but being mean to her isn't enough and the allegations against him are just that. And while all this is being argued in court for the next few years, Patty Jenkins and crew are spinning their wheels waiting to begin production. There probably isn't a morals clause anyway since Ratner was basically giving WB money to help finance the film.

                  Maybe WB can find a dollar amount good enough to get Ratner to go away, but if they can't this is going to be ugly.

                  ETA: the original deal was for $450,000,000. How much does WB pay Ratner to just go away? And how quickly do the shareholders fire CEO Kevin Tsujihara after he signs away all that money?

                    Agreed. And everyone has a price. Ratner will still get rich, it's just a matter of how rich, and how much work he had to do with the movie.

                                I saw some Yahoo headline clickbait about Nickelodeon, but Yahoo, so didn't click.
