Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

[Viator]

I am going to disagree about GOTG2,Thanos,and Avengers 2 due to 3 reasons:

1.) Avengers 2; Kevin already said at SDCC that footage wouldn't be shown for Avengers for a while and it works out so they don't have to rush anything which I do think Captain America 1's end-credit with the avengers was for me a bit rushed

2.) Thanos will be more than likely discussed in future Doctor Strange & Thor due to the gauntlet will happen and they from what I see are giving small peaks to the main event and I think Ultron will be made of one of the stones in a way that works.

3.) GOTG2 is far away; 2017 far and I don't think it'd be probable due to the script has probably not even started and they have atleast 2 years to get a script done and to rush a peak wouldn't make sense.

and I have one more reason and hear me out...

4.) The end credit means to me as a test, of sorts that Kevin wants to see how far they can go with some things like what the end-credits has showed. it isn't a major end credit.. Sure, is the collector still out there; yes but that's only due to the future of the MCU and probably the cameoed character wasn't anything more than just a nod to the 80s.

Now onto the Stan lee cameo... I loved it and thought it actauly fit him very well. He is very loving of this wife and they brought it up that hes all the mighty and where is his wife and it fit well.

I loved the film by the way.

Captain America's post credit scene set up Age of Ultron already, why do we need another one? Guardians of the Galaxy 2 isn't even ready to start production yet either so it's hard to have a scene setting up that movie too. That pretty much just leaves Ant-Man and that's hard to connect it into this movie, even for a post credits scene. I thought it was the best one so far, but I'm also a major Marvel fanboy so the fact they threw in arguably their most infamous character for a gag was so incredibly hilarious for me.

This drives it home. Sure its they're most infamous character but hell, it made me laugh a little. And I very much agree that Cap2 has set the last Phase II film and maybe it could of been nice if Doc Strange got something but i'm still fine with nothing about him till probably SDCC2015. And all we have to do with it set up is just 'Wait' to see what unfolds in May next year...

Best Marvel movie yet and possibly my favorite comic book movie (need to rewatch it to see how it compares to TDK). Sucks that we won't be seeing these characters again until 2017.

Awesome movie. Basically like Avengers. Dysfunctional, skilled, personalities coming together as one to defend a cause by putting differences and selfishness aside for cooperation for success.

Great movie and character interaction all throughout. I know it's early but would love to see an attraction for this. So much you could do and UNI is in need for a Sci-Fi land haha!

But I mus say the ending with the Baby Groot dancing had me in tears. Absolutely hilarious.

Groot was also an important character (as they all were) but very limited with voicing and speaking. Still loved the way they included him into the movie!!

 

[IAmFloridaBorn]

I wish Marvel was more so Universal than Disney! Ahh!

 

[Disneyhead]

I found the movie to be forced with not only laughably bad dialog but also some really bad acting. So bad, that at times it just felt awkward. My least favorite of the new Marvel Cinematic Universe films (haven't seen any of the Capt. Am. films). It just didn't feel as well crafted as The Avengers or the Ironman films.

The after credits scene made me laugh. But I really hope they aren't trying to set something up with it.

A shame you didn't enjoy it. While some parts suffered from exposition info dumps ("here, let me explain to you why this stone is so valuable and make a pretty good argument as to why you shouldn't sell it to me, but I need to say this to set up Avengers 3" comes to mind), but I thought the film had genuine charm, and it was refreshing to have a film that didn't take itself so seriously.

That said, while I have mixed feelings on Captain America 1, you really should see Winter Soldier. Not only is it important for the Cinematic Universe - it's also just a really well-told, self-contained story.

I certainly did find that the movie had some awkward spots with dialogue but overall this movie surprised me greatly. I didn't want to give it a shot at first (Especially with Batista's WWE stints) but I found that the movie was charming, hilarious, and by the end created characters to care for. In my more analytical ways I see flaws more clearly in movies and this one had its fair share (the ending with a forced explanation on how they did what they did? Weird) but overall, a great addition to the Marvel franchise and one that brings a smile to my face.


Baby groot dancing and Drax's literal take on the world were classic, key (my personal favorites) components of the movie.

8/10

Saw this today, wow. Terrible. This is the first time a Rotten Tomatoes score was completely opposite of my personal opinion. I don't see how this is a 92 currently. I laughed one time. The story was awful. Bad acting. And to make my overall experience even worse (no fault of the movie's obviously) but the crazy lady behind me kept kicking my seat the whole time and she would laugh hysterically at every single line that even slightly resembled an attempt at humor. She probably literally laughed over 100 times. It was terrible. I would have tried move but It was a pretty sold out theater.

I don't know... Iron Man 2 was pretty rough (And 3 wasn't that better either)

Guardians of The Galaxy is the most personal and unique Marvel film thus far. It's a film that enjoys breaking the rules and formulas of modern day super-hero films. It's refreshingly colorful, goofy, and silly but it also manages to get audiences to connect with the characters and the story. There are lots of LOL moments, quite a few epic/bad-ass moments (like the two opening scenes), and more than enough emotional moments as well. Not to mention Chris Pratt as Star-Lord is one of the best Marvel characters PERIOD (I seriously love his Walkman, his awesome mix tape, and just his general personality. He's kind of like a goofy/silly Han Solo that hides some real pain beneath his exterior). I saw this in 3-D, and I was super impressed. Guardians was a post-conversion job but you would never be able to tell from watching this film. A surprisingly good number of things pop out at you during the film, the depth is absolutely stunning at times, and the film in 3D is a true marvel to behold. Every second of this film in 3-D is impressive, gorgeous, and memorable. All in all....I really loved this movie. It's easily the best film of Summer 2014, and is now my personal favorite Marvel film. Needless to say, you should definitely see it.

5 out of 5

 

[Jymmymack]

Loved Guardians. 80s style B-movie with a large budget and heart to match.

Are we all really that enamored with DoFP? I enjoyed Guardians more. DoFP did a good job of correcting all the things wrong with the X-Men films, but it still had a lot of bending and twisting non-sense to force sentiment (the cure for paralysis was downright silly).

 

[OLSinFLA]

The scene at the end (tag not the post credits) is the funniest, loopiest non-dialouge scene in a long time (I don't want to spoil it).

This video is NSFW, but enjoy a video of Chris Pratt rapping Eminem:

Saw this a second time and I think I enjoyed it more this time around. Marvel is on a roll right now. Cap is the the best of the summer for me but I originally had X-Men ahead of Guardians but I gotta switch them around. Loved everything about this movie

 

[youhow2]

See, I original left the theater disappointed, but realized I was probably just a little too hype for it, especially after Winter Soldier, It was a hard film to follow and my expectations were set way high. The more I thought about it, I realized it wasn't a bad film. Better than Iron Man 3 and 2 for sure.

 

[yankees13]

If I rank the MCU movies I'd go:

Iron Man
Avengers
Cap 2
Guardians
Iron Man 2
Iron Man 3
Cap 1
Thor
Thor 2
Hulk

 

[Jymmymack]

Cap 2
Avengers
Guardians
Cap
Iron Man
Thor
Hulk
Iron Man 2
Iron Man 3
Thor 2

IM
Avengers
Cap 2
Cap
Hulk
IM 2
IM 3
Thor
Thor 2
GOTG.

Which may change after the GOTG DVD comes out. I didn't think it was a bad movie, I enjoyed it, just my least favorite Marvel movie. Marvel really needs to work on developing the villains and give them some depth, that would be my one true complaint with the MCU.
When I saw IM and then the HUlk I wanted to immediately wanted to see them again, I didn't and just waited for the DVD, the only movie I have seen more than once, since I was a kid, in the theater was the Avengers.
