Just got back. All I can say is this is one of the best movies (winter soldier, avengers) marvel has put out. The movie wastes no time getting into the action. People say Rocket was the best character but Drax was a good/funny dude as well.
I'm interested to know who Peter Quills dad is as I wasn't a reader of the comic as kid. After the scene credits was funny, but in my opinion was a waste. I was hoping they introduced Nova (maybe in part 2?)

Vin Desial gotta be stealing checks with the Groot performance. They could have gotten anyone off the street to play him and the audience wouldn't know the difference.

Overall this movie is a must see

Better than Avengers?

I would say no, but it's right underneath it. I think what sets this apart from the phase one movies is that the majority of us know what the backstory of the characters (iron man,Thor etc) where as this movie, you get a two minute story on an 10-12 year old Peter Quill then it jumps to the present time

I agree! A raucous romp, full of laughter, pathos, explosions, and a soundtrack that makes you love music again. Marvel may have outdone itself with a film that revels in not taking itself seriously. A resounding A+

I disagree..

the Post Credit Scene was a jab at DC with all their "We cant do Wonder Woman" and Marvel saying "We have a Raccoon... and a _______"

I don't think the general audience knows those backstories that well.

i saw it tonight. and i liked it.

but it was in no way better than avengers or winter soldier.

and after seeing ninja turtles last night, "which guardians took a swipe at with a line," i think ninja turtles will have this beat next week on name recognition alone.

with that said, fun movie and if you are a marvel comic buff you will really enjoy this movie. LOTS of inside stuff non comic readers will miss.

as i watched this movie i was thinking that it was a combination of:

the fifth element meets star wars meets the naked gun. it was a fun time.

one other thing i really like about this movie was not only the scope of the universe but the scope of characters power and size. there was a certain point in the movie where the crew went to a mining colony and you could see just how bad fox fucked up galactus and fantastic four from that scene alone. after seeing that scene it makes you even madder how they did galactus in that fantastic four movie by fox.

I remember they made it seem like just having Galactus in the movie would double the production budget

i've watched all the marvel movies so far, this is behind avengers and cap 2 (almost tied with cap 2 imo)...i feel like i did miss 'inside stuff' that i probably would have picked up if i had read the comic...

i was moreso looking to if they would tie it into previous movies (thor/cap/ironman) but i didn't see

and since i'm 30+ i shed a thug tear at the bonus scene

Aside from star lord and the tree, this movie was full of corny...John Bautista (Drax) is possibly one of the worst actors I've seen-he read his script as if it was for a wrestling event.

If you've read the comic, that's how Drax speaks.

I loved that fact that they included some of the more fantastical elements of the Marvel Universe; the Kree, Cosmo, Know Where, etc, while not direct translations, they implement well.

And understand the only reason for this film was to introduce the history of the Infinity Gems, I thought they did this well.
