I loved it. Only one minor complaint:
Spoiler: show
the Pac Man thing was really cheesy
Also:
Spoiler: show
the Hasselhoff and Taser Face stuff was hilarious

Perhaps I should reword my question. Is it best to see it in 3D? For someone who doesn't like 3D.

This was a lot of fun. Too long and kind of messy at times, but I love the characters. Most of the jokes landed. I prefer these two over pretty much every other Marvel movie.

Some really nice Monet-like sceneries in this one

Alright, I guess I should mark this stuff just in case.
Spoiler: show
"I'm Mary Poppins, y'all!"

The OG Guardians showing up.

Foreshadowing Nebula's role in Infinity War.

Foreshadowing Adam Warlock. Again.

"Tell me you have a drawer full of spare parts where he found a toe."
I didn't like some of the James Gunn humor in the movie. "My Nipples!" was funny-ish the first time. The third? Taserface was funny but the scene went on a little long.

Just curious, how much was Vin Diesel paid for this movie?

Oh wow. That bad, huh?
Music was too much, they must have had famous people lining up for cameos and let them all in, and the humor was very predictable and too over the top.
I disagree with all 3 points. I only noticed Steve Agee and the usual guy.

Also, Brandy (you're a fine girl) was also a guilty pleasure of mine, so maybe I was predisposed to liking the soundtrack.

Leaving the movie my wife told me this was the most she ever laughed during a movie. That's probably true of all the things we've seen together

I really liked it.

Although, I have to say I'm over the token shirtless scene they make these guys do. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate it and the effort these guys put in to look that way but it's getting so predictable. They even made poor Paul Rudd do it for Ant Man.
