Our favorite superhero misfits are back in <em>Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3</em> trailer
- Thread starter JournalBot
- Start date
Probably worth an evening in the theatre, but frankly MCU is getting complicated and of mixed quality.
I hope something interesting will come out of the series (Wanda, Loki ...) as I feel it has potential, but I don't see it for the time being.

Most of the phase 4 stuff have been misses for me, most notably Love & Thunder which straight up bored me. I'll probably watch it, but I'm not desperate to do so.

aww how cute, yeah one of them is gonna die or disappear.
not a single romance has survived this series.
quill / gamora : gamora is the sacrifice to get that one infinity stone and is disappeared.
drax/ mantis : mantis is dusted by thanos.
yondu becoming a better dad to quill : yondu heroically sacrificed himself for quills sake rip yondu :'(
yeah this isnt gonna last, the only question on my mind is HOW will it come to an end.

Another one is Clint Howard.
Nepotism be damned, though, I like all three of those guys and am glad they show up in their brothers' movies from time to time.

And there's definitely more. Peter and MJ. Stark and Pepper are the big ones that come to mind.

I'm a bit worried, this looks waaaay to serious for its own good :-/
Also, why are the Guardians wearing a uniform? Seems pretty out of character for them, they're not members of the Nova Corps...

It is another movie with a brown color palette for way too much of it.
s Delightful /s
Especially annoying because of the series history of being delightfully colourful.

This part gets me every time. Guardians 1 and 2 have a few scenes that make me cry every damn time. I've lost a lot of family to various illnesses over the years and for some reason these movies really hit me.

I just want the Vol 3 music sound track 
As someone that grew up in the 80s/90s, I missed a lot of good music that Vol 1 and 2 introduced me to, like The Rubber Band Man, Mr. Blue Sky, Hooked on a Feeling, and Come and Get Your Love

I'm excited for it. I wasn't in love with the Ego plotline of the second movie, but silly-bonkers-heros-in-space with a talking racoon that has a gun fetish and a walking tree was just more fun for me than most of the MCU, so these guys have held a sweet spot in my heart. Actually come to think of it that might be part of why I like some of the Thor movies. Some are better than others, but I just realized I like the parts where they're traveling through random places in space better than the parts on earth. I have high hopes, but medium expectations.

I mean Marvel is Disney, so we should be surprised that nobody is ever really gone, eh Gomorrah?

It's not hard to spell the character's name correctly.
Also, Yondu has not come back after the events of the second movie.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a future DC counterpart of the Guardians, set in the DC version of the Multiverse.
In fact, perhaps we'll be witness to an alternate Universe where all Marvel characters are DC, and vice versa.
Of course it wouldn't be unexpected, given that many of the comic book writers and illustrators have switched back and both between Marvel and DC throughout their careers.

I feel you, I'm going through the same.
Quill and Yondu's situation also hits home, as I've long pointed out the difference between a father (sperm donor) and a dad (person who raised you). The punchline may be the first thing people remember from that scene, but the most important bit is what comes before it:
"Ha ha ha!"
"What?"
"You look like Mary Poppins".
"Is he cool?"
pauses
"Hell, yeah, he's cool."
Every time someone complains about "yet another MCU film", I figure it's because they didn't have Yondu for a dad like I did.

Michael Rooker is the best thing about those movies. Pair that with Sean Gunn's character and... /chef's kiss!

I'm not quite sure how Marvel does it, and continues to do it. Some are better than others, but they are all good. All you have to do is watch any DC movie and their attempt to replicate the formula. Great Value superhero movies. (IMO, Bale's Batman movies are the exception, and the first 3/4 of Wonder Woman)

Drax is by far my favorite, love his humor. I'm looking forward for a fun movie. Especially since there hasn't been much to make you laugh lately.

Technically, yes, it was nepotism, but its also a family tradition - Sean has showed up in most of the movies that James had written or directed (Slither being the most notable exception, but also the Scooby Doo movies), going all the way back to Gunn's first screenplay, Tromeo and Juliet. And pretty much everything since 2010.

Take a look at the original Rocket Racoon limited series (comics). The world he came from was basically a planet-as-insane asylum; the inmates are the humans, and the caretakers are anthropomorphic animals.
I loved the series, and when I saw the first trailers for the original GotG, and I saw Rocket, all I could think was "nailed it!"
While everybody around me was going "huh? a bloodthirsty racoon? Who'll watch that?"

I have very similar feelings and hopes. GotG 1 is one of my favorite movies, of any type, of all time. And the things you mentioned - B list actors playing C list characters and just leaning into it and going with it and never taking it too seriously - have a lot to do with why. The cast looked like it legitimately had fun playing those roles, and some of that feels like it has been lost in the sequel and the Avengers movies they appeared in.
Hoping some of that can be recaptured for this final installment of this iteration of the cast + characters, but from the trailers and the plot teases, I don't have very much hope

Bautista is honestly better as Drax than anything he ever did in wrestling, IMO.
"Nothing goes over my head. My reflexes are too fast...I would catch it!"
lol
So many great moments/lines he had in the two stand-alone films.

The comics have done it a bunch of times - one of the biggest was in the 90's:

Bautista said he wasn't gonna do GOTG3 unless they rehired Gunn. And now that Gunn is officially done with Marvel he likely feels like he can move on without a problem.

He's also Rocket Raccoon's stand-in during filming and is digitally replaced in post.

Glad to see Martinex made the cut this time, but still waiting for Vance Astro, Charlie-27, Starhawk, Aleta and Nikki.

It really does, but it’s 100% cgi. Some speculated that it will make the costume at theme parks easier to pull off. Tho I doubt that.

Maybe not in theaters. But I've been watching Extraordinary on Hulu, and had a few laugh-out-loud moments from it.
Luke Rollason is purrfect casting here, but the rest of the cast is very good, too.
