Guardians of the Galaxy, Volume 3 (5/5/23)

[VinylGuy]

Are there any girls in this?

yes

Pass

there are also a giant tree and a talking raccoon.

[VinylGuy]

They're really telegraphing "Rocket dies in this one" hard, which makes me think he actually won't die in this one

yeah, but someone will. Im guessing Pratt and Saldana.

[CopperTom]

Maybe Rocket gets transformed into human Rocket. That way Marvel can make a Wrecking Crew show or movie with Bradley Cooper.

I hate that tree so much. Truly one of the most obnoxious characters in Marvel.

[BurtReynolds]

You hear that B? I hate that tree.

[JuanHamm]

You hear that B? I hate that tree.

More or less than that stupid baby Yoda?

I'm not very familiar with Baby Yoda. He looks like a Gizmo ripoff. But that tree is so dumb.

[JuanHamm]

Man, Gizmo is great

[E.H. Ruddock]

You hear that B? I hate that tree.

You are Groot

Actually, now that I look at it. That's not modern music. I'm just old.

Was just going to reply to your list. Thanks for catching that, gramps.

Man, what a ride. Funny, action packed and so emotional. Gunn did it again really.
You care so much for this characters, you are invested on them...rocket backstory man...everything with Peter and Gamora...Nebula´s growth as a character...damn, so well made.

It was also very nice to see real sets again in a fucking Marvel movie. Looks awesome.

[Mecca]

Why are MCU movies ending with heroes acquiring children? Sorry, Disney, but I’m not gonna have kids for you to have future customers

Yeah, honestly, this is such a fantastic movie. James Gunn appears to be the only Marvel director worth a damn. Limber, fluid action scenes. Very tactile cinematography and design elements (opposite of Ant-Man 3, which felt like Sound Stage City). It gets so grim at points, there's one scene in particular that I'm sure parents will absolutely complain about. But overall, such a beautiful movie. Gunn is 4 for 4 in these big superhero films, his work is always on a whole other level of craft and thoughtfulness

[The Argonaut]

Sweet, guys, stoked for it

Do You Realize was a perfect song for this (if not a little too on the nose with the “floating in space” line), but they kinda cheap out the emotional weight of the line “everyone you know will die” by having Quill take his headphones out and leaving the line a background noise from the headphones.
