I still can’t believe Rocket Raccoon’s origin was 10x more emotional and impactful than most MCU characters’ origins.
based
Watch hacksaw ridge
Will there be a Spider Verse reaction?
James Gunn confirmed that when Groot says “I love you guys” he’s actually still saying “I am groot” it’s just that we are finally hearing him like they do.
I immediately thought the same thing, especially when the others didn’t react.
Doesn't make any sense.
@@Ultimaniacx4 ??? Care to explain?
@@Ultimaniacx4 How?
@@SirSpitsAlotable He says that's why Gamora understood him. Thor wasn't "part of the family" when they met in Infinity War, he and Rocket speak as if it's a language that's learned. Thor says he learned it on Asgard as an elective.
Also, If just being part of the family let you understand him, then why didn't Yondu understand him at the end of Vol.2? Yondu had fully embraced his role as Peter's father and he had more interaction with Groot in that movie than Gamora did in this movie, she's still a stranger to them all except for Nebula. And it was Groot himself that welcomed Yondu to the group/family. By Gunn's logic, that should mean Yondu didn't need Rocket to translate for him.
It's small inconsistencies like these that don't give me hope for Gunn's DCCU. He's great at small emotional moments but he's not very good at world building.
The way that Floor was shouting "Rocket, Teefs, Floor go now!" got me in tears
I so badly wish she would’ve gotten herself and teefs out of the way 🤧🤧🤧🤧
I didnt understand that line when it was said and now reading this, I am crying like a B*TCH again! Thanks!!
Yeah the fact she clearly has limitations intelligence wise for her to put that together and know it urgent was extremely sad 🐰🕷️😅
It broke my heart when Floor said that and then to know what was coming made to tears really flow
@@iamworthy1302 She was in that moment the most capable of all of them, and knew exactly what they needed to do.
I'm so glad they understood the meaning of Groot's 'I love you guys', it's such a smart inclusion and so poignant.
A lot of people miss it
I honestly don’t see the high evolutionarys actor getting enough praise his performance it was near perfection I’ve not had that much hatred for a villain in a very long time.
The part where he mocks Rocket when he's crying makes my blood boil, I just want to punch him the face. That is how you make a great evil villain, plus the "There is no God, that's why I stepped in" line is actually fire
Facts! Dude was incredibly terrifying..what an actor..yeah one of the best performances i have seen in a recent movie..If Awards shows were not such snobs about non Drama Movies i would say this should be a best Suporting actor nomination but in the world we live in that would never happen..
I never hated someone in movie that much since Dolores Umbridge, kudos to actor
It’s that “he believes he is right” energy while being so. SO wrong. It makes every breakdown he has SO satisfying. He presents himself as a god, but he is nothing more than a spoiled child, playing with toys and furious when anyone does anything they dislike.
It's funny, I have seen nothing but the highest praise for him.
This film proves there is no superhero fatigue. People showed up because it is a great movie! Across the Spider-Verse is also an excellent example
to me, there is no superhero fatigue. Just some shitty writing of D+ shows and phase 4 & 5 movies that tarnish the MCU. But, they still have time to recover the good ol form.
@@Bulletnoexactly!
I feel more multiverse fatigue than superhero fatigue, & even then all they need is more heart & better writing like Spider-Verse.
I sincerely pray The Kang Dynasty & Secret Wars deliver as well as Infinity War & Endgame. They need to focus on quality over quantity.
Post-Endgame I’ve enjoyed:
- Shang-Chi
- Wakanda Forever
- WandaVision
- Moon Knight
- Joker (2019)
- Snyder’s Justice League
- The Suicide Squad
- Harley Quinn (animated show)
I especially loved:
- No Way Home
- Loki
- The Batman
- Peacemaker
- GOTG Vol. 3
- The Boys
- TMNT: Mutant Mayhem
- Across the Spider-Verse
- Invincible
I’m considering checking out Doom Patrol & Watchmen because I’ve heard great things about those shows. I’m really looking forward to Loki S2, Invincible S2, & Deadpool 3.
I’m interested in Daredevil: Born Again, but very cautious because of recently poor Disney+ shows. Also S3 of the Netflix series was some of the best TV I’ve ever seen & set an impossibly high bar.
@@Bulletnothere’s superhero fatigue in the sense that people aren’t excited to see the next product in the MCU anymore like they were during Phase 3. The hype during that phase was palpable. Hollywood just doesn’t understand that the reason the hype is dropping is because of bad writing.
@@JITCompilation and that the reason of bad writing is both poor quality control and even worse work conditions. Until they pay their writers what they are worth and stop rushing productions, it won't get better.
Fun fact, James Gunn said his career highlight was the final scene because he was doing the mocap dance for Groot while his brother did the dance for rocket, so it felt like a full circle moment
The only Marvel movie to ever make me cry. Rocket had the most traumatic backstory ever. The fact that "hurts" was his first word is just heartbreaking.
Agreed
It's so heartbreaking.
Damnit, I didn't even think of that - why would you do this to me 😭😭
The first marvel film that made me cry was gotg 2 when yondu died 😭
That was way too sad it ruined the whole movie for me
That final shot of rocket screaming at the sky with his newfound happiness hits me so hard every time I see it
its a perfect parallel to him screaming after lylla says sky and dies
@@lilbrownbeari thought it was a parallel to him and his friends playing in the cage
I think is more like someone who has embraced his past and make peace with it, actually Rocket just started to forgive himself for feeling responsable for their demise, finally he can look forward and be happy
the fact that they IMMEDIATELY figured out how they could understand Groot… y’all are the best reaction channel for stuff like that
It might be recency bias but GOTG3 is one of the best and emotional MCU films. It's also easily the most disturbing MCU film and makes me wonder what horrible nightmares James Gunn had to inspire the character designs in this film.
With movies and video games, I've been so desensitized but this movie ALMOST made me cry because I love animals, especially otters! And it made me realize how good of a director James Gunn is with balancing humor and emotion!
For me it’s a top 5 movie of recent memory, not just MCU but cinema in general. Being a comic book movie is just a plus in my eyes
@@fuzzyotterpaws4395the racoon scene at the end and quill screaming “noooo” legitimately made me tear up and that is a rarity for me
I agree!
@@Pyrowith2osI dont know for me but for an MCU movie, top tier...Best for me since Endgame!!!
That first "hurts" from Rocket is like..one of the most heartbreaking things I've ever seen just holy cow
The fact that Drax never danced or enjoied a dance party since he lost his family, and then we see him feeling like a father again, feeling that what was taken away from him...man, that really gets me every time
The “creepy thing” that Mantis helped escape, was actually James Gunn.
The more you know…..⭐️😂
it was pete davidson lol
What's more, the character was actually created so that it could be voiced by Stan Lee instead of making a physical appearance as was commonplace in previous films (to make it easier to include).
Had they kept James Gunn and GotG v.3 not gotten delayed, it's possible that this would have been Stan Lee's last role in a Marvel film.
James Gunn said that the voice of that creature was meant to Stan Lee as a cameo, but he passed before of it, so James gave his voice to it
Sean Gunn definitely is NOT just there because he's James Gunn's brother. He was already a major character (Kirk) on Gilmore Girls way back in like 2000. He was also in 3rd Rock From The Sun, Bones, and Angel, etc all before Guardians 1.
He was famous before James Gunn was.
And he's waaaaaay more than "proven himself" as Kraglin, because he's also the on set actor for Rocket Raccoon.
He's a HUGE part of these movies.
Loved him as Kirk!
Well, yes he’s a good established actor. But if you think he’d have this role without having James Gunn be the director for this trilogy, that’s just false.
@@kingintox5743Here's the thing though, you're speaking in purely hypothetical. No one knows the answer, we can at most guess.
Maybe Sean Gunn wouldn't even have auditioned, maybe he would have gotten a different role, and maybe he would've played the same role anyways.
No one can know for sure. I think the point the commenter was making is that his role is not undeserved.
No matter how many times I've seen this, "Hurts," gets me every time. It got to the guys as well. It's such a great moment and shows just how good Gunn is at storytelling. One word just tears you to shreds.
Someone you missed is Ura, the pink receptionist in Orgoscope. She's Daniela Melchior, who plays the Ratcatcher in The Suicide Squad. Gunn really loves his team. Also, Linda Cardellini plays Lylla, her second MCU character after playing Laura Barton.
Aka Velma lol👌🏻
I forget her name but Scott Lang’s ex wife was the pig thing also.
@@erikrivers1927judy greer ❗️❗️
And strangely Lila is also the name of Laura and Clint's daughter.
Eric: "I've got snot and shit in my beard"
Calvin: "Shit? How did that get there?"
Awesome natural dialogue!
Literally stopped the reaction to find this comment LOL Had me laughing at such a sad part of the movie lol
One thing I love about this movie is seeing how the guardians treat/think of each other. In the first, they obviously don't care for one another cause they're just forced together. Even in the second theyre kinda antagonistic to each other, although better. In this, they care so deeply about each other and no longer teammates but family, as they will do anything they can to save their friend.
Love that Rocket had a counter to the gravity powers the High Evolutionary had
It's great that he just briefly mentions testing his gravity boots at the beginning, and they come into play at the end.
There's a little bit of a jealousy thing going on with the High Evolutionary and Rocket. I think the boots were such a great little nod to Rocket being the better inventor (even though it wasn't intentional on his part). That's how you do foreshadowing.
@@AuspexAO It's also to my mind a clear message that, while it was satisfying to watch the Guardians team stomp the HE, Rocket could have done it all on his own.
@@AuspexAO Unquestionably. It's part of why he's so obsessed with Rocket, going back to Rocket's youth. He can't stand that this "flawed experiment" is better than he is and his insane standards of perfection won't allow him to see that Rocket might be what he was trying to achieve all along.
What's more, is that it's just something Rocket came up with in his downtime.
HE said that he spent YEARS to give himself gravity powers.
Rocket's counter came from messing around for an afternoon.
What also gets me in this film is that for once Peter was able to actually save someone he cares about
😢that's got me too 😢
Hahah talked right over the F bomb. Made me chuckle in the cinema
i know :( my theater lost it on the swear lol
Looks like they noticed/reacted to it. Just not much that you people expect. Plus they've already seen it in the trailer before.
U would expect one from a pg13 movie but not an mcu movie
@@mohzayd1234let alone it being used on a "getting in the old car and the handle is confusing to use" joke is just amazing
damn f bomb was in the trailer ? U sure ?@@Jaynn29
With this movie, Guardians cemented itself as one of my favorite movie trilogies ever. Also, this might be the only movie I have ever watched where fake out deaths actually enhanced the movie. Everyone expected SOMEONE to die in this movie when in reality, no one needed to. It just shows how much James Gunn cares about these characters and wanted to make sure their endings were perfect. I love this movie even more every rewatch, every reaction I watch, every time I think about it.
This might be the first time a fake out death got me. I genuinely thought Star Lord was dead, especially with the way his eyes glazed over and face puffed up. It was incredibly emotional when he got rescued, as well as Rocket's fake out earlier in the movie.
I wasn't tricked by it, but the scene was phenomenal, especially Pratt's acting there.
I would say they already had their allotted death with OG Gamora but yeah, there’s frequently an expectation with these kind of stories that someone has to die but this movie proves that sometimes, having everybody survive is more cathartic
9:30 eric grabbing the tissues basically sums up this movie 😂😂
Sean gunn deserves some cred.
He voiced teen Rocket and is the motion capture ref.
When you see Rocket emoting, that's not Bradley, that's Sean.
The “don’t be rash” part got me good when I saw it in theaters. Any jokes or funny parts including Adam hit the best for me in this movie, not all of them but a good portion.
James Gunn knows how to make all these characters work so well & the music is always amazing! Sad but heartfelt story telling
That is not true.
@@Golfballtauchenok
@@Golfballtauchen who hurt you?
@@Cazammaf Marvel, with
industrial goods, and not good movies.
I love the interaction between Gamora and Groot right when she understands him. It’s such a sweet moment because when you think about it she was kinda his mom. So he’s probably happy to see her too.
Something I love with this movie and the first movie? In Volume 1 they defeat Ronan in a dance off, and with the end of Volume 3, the cast we've grown to love have one final dance for us. Music is a POWERFUL communicator because it's something we can all understand. James Gunn is a master of emotion and cinema, and this movie was a masterpiece.
The ending of this movie is absolutely beautiful. Even Nebula is screaming out of joy. What a banger of a trilogy.
This movie has my favorite finale seconds of any comic book movie. Nebula and Rocket in particular having finally found happiness makes me tear up.
The kid who was on the team at the end, Phyla, seems to be an MCU interpretation of Phyla-Vell, who was the daughter of Mar-Vell in the comics and had Captain Marvel powers. In that last shot it does look like her fists are glowing very similar to how Carol's do...
Eric asking why it still hurts despite already knowing they're gonna die.
Meanwhile here I am rewatching this movie for the 5th time still crying.
“Legendary Star-Lord” was the title of a relatively short comics series from almost ten years ago, it’s about Peter trying to hold down a relationship with Kitty Pryde from the X-Men on Earth while doing solo space adventures after the Guardians break up. With how the movie ends and the impending introduction of mutants, “The Legendary Star-Lord Will Return” is likely a hint about what the next movie will be about.
Such an emotional movie. One of the MCU's absolute best. Gunn really knows how to make an amazing film, and i have no doubt he will carry that energy into Superman and beyond
Im expecting a flying entry sequence just like Adam Warlock's "Crazy on You" from this movie
Nebula having such a reaction to hearing Rocket being ok is great because you have to remember that Nebula and Rocket were the only ones not 'Blipped', so they had 5 years together to really bond
Knowing Rocket’s full story now, ending on the shot of him howling in glee towards the sky is the perfect ending for him. The same can be said for Nebula, now having seemingly finally shed the sharper edges of her persona that she was still holding on to.
Eric's reaction to rocket's "hurts" was me, except i was in a theater and instead of running to get tissues I had to just bawl in theaters lol
Eric is perpetually me. As soon as creep started, I looked at him on the screen and said "oh yeah Eric, you're in for a tough one, prepare the tissues".
such an awesome movie, Guardians is the best MCU trilogy.
I'm trying to think about the others, but Captain America is the only one I can think of that's close? Only second to Guardians because the first one wasn't as strong as the others, although 2 and 3 were EXTREMELY well done. But Guardians was real strong across all three.
@@galmorzu I actually thought the second one was a dud and the first one is one of the best in the MCU. Third one though? After a lot of time thinking about it, I'd actually say best MCU film, period. I did think of putting Winter Soldier over it but I think I partially only love that one because I'm supposed to love it. As a trilogy I'd still put Captain America above it, but it's really freaking close.
@@galmorzulol what 1 is way better than 2
@@galmorzuI honestly prefer the 1st over the 2nd one. I feel like the comedy & the story hit more.
GOTG1 is one of the best films in the MCU showing the team’s origin as a dysfunctional family, Peter’s connection with his mother, & setting the pieces in the Infinity Saga with Thanos & the Power Stone.
Vol. 2 had a better villain tho IMO & a heartwarming theme about fathers. Vol. 3 is definitely my favorite in the franchise with an emotional Rocket backstory & send-off for this version of the team. High Evolutionary is definitely the best GOTG villain.
Captain America is definitely my 2nd favorite MCU franchise. The Winter Soldier is dark and top-tier & Civil War is great. Both films have badass moments with interesting villains.
The Avengers would probably be next for me. The 1st film, Infinity War, & Endgame were just iconic/history-making from the first assembling to Thanos’ quest and a full circle end to a decade-long saga.
Spider-Man would probably be right after that for me. I loved Peter’s arc in Homecoming & Vulture’s motives. No Way Home was a amazing crossover of 3 separate eras with legendary callbacks and great performances like Green Goblin. It was also a perfect reset for the struggling street-level hero.
Deadpool 1 & 2 were FOX projects but if we were counting them, that franchise could end up near or at the top of my list depending on how well DP3 does with his & Wolverine’s long-awaited, R-rated MCU debut.
@@galmorzu Guardians 2 was extremely mediocre compared to the first one. It was almost a bad movie but it was only saved due to its ending
Rockets first word being "hurts" absolutely kills me. I went into this expecting some Guardians 1 and 2 level fun and wound up fighting back tears for 2 hours and I loved every minute of it. 10/10
James Gunn made a movie with a freaking talking racoon in it, and that racoon made me cry like a little boy! 😂 Superman has never been in better hands!
Something I forgot about until after seeing this movie: Nebula and Rocket were the only surviving Guardians during the blip. They were all that was left of their family for 5 years.
I’m kinda shocked that none of them had any reaction to the f-bomb at 21:30. Unlucky that Eric chose that exact moment to say something to the other guys, I guess…
imagine being that guy thats comments stuff like this😂
I'm just so used to hearing swears, I didn't even notice haha! Thank you for pointing it out
I mean considering its common knowledge every movie can get one f-bomb and remain PG-13, they likely did notice it, but never even cross their mind that it was the first for the MCU. No reason to make a big deal of it, if you think its nothing new or special. I know i wouldn't have ever realized it was a big deal without all the attention it got on social media after the film came out
@@Leviahthon first marvel f bomb
Well they've already seen it in the trailers before
32:36 It made perfect sense. ever time he tried using the arrow is was all in his head. so right now he used his heart which answered to protect his friends and family
It’s been a hot minute since an MCU movie made me cry so much and it was over a RACCOON. Anyway, I love Rocket and I think Guardians of the Galaxy has the most solid trilogy in the entire MCU.
50:55 Now that you think about it all three villians wanted to wipe out planets just to make their idealistic visions
I've kinda been on a binge watching reactions to this, almost trying to numb myself to it (not working by the way, still crying every time) and you guys are the first "men" who have actually cried at it. Who haven't tried to hide it.
It's such a touching story, told so well, showing such raw emotion. So thank you for showing it the love it deserves.
Thank you.
Jesus guys. I didn’t cry when I watched this movie in theaters, why did I cry watching you guys react to this movie? This was one for your best reactions, hands down.
The collective is once again joining against Eric's opinion on CGI Cosmo. The dog has to emote, in a human-like fashion, act like it's using telekinesis, turn and talk to people on command while wearing a space suit. It makes NO sense to have a real dog as Cosmo and do that horrific just the face style CG. Or just leave the dogs face emotionless while having lines come out of the collar. On a separate note, I really wanted to see their reaction to the "HOW DID YOU KNOW" scene as it was one of favourites, sadly it was left out, so I'll have to wait for the movie to come out on Disney and watch the full length.
Yeah CGI Cosmo absoluely did not bother me one bit. At all. I thought Cosmo was perfect. Maybe it's because Eric has a dog he sees every day? I don't have a pet dog, just a cat. IF ANYTHING obviously some of the hybrid creatures in the movie like the war pig was noticeable but not nearly enough to pull me out of the movie.
I've had dogs all my life and I literally didn't think about the fact it was Cgi once throughout the entire movie
But yes all the way through the movie it was emoting and doing things dog actors wouldn't be able to do, it would make no sense to have it be a real dog
Wait Cosmo is CGI? Maybe I just wasnt paying attention but not once I thought she was CG
@@patrick_basedmanfacts, I wasn’t looking that hard into it to notice
@@patrick_basedman Same! And I have had many dogs.
All of the scenes with Rocket, Lylla, Teefs, and Floor get me teary-eyed or crying; even the one where they're running around playing. And then the ending, forget about it.
43:16 YES CALVIN! I’M SO GLAD YOU GOT IT IMMEDIATELY
To quote Ryan George
- "And then Rocket makes some fellow experiments mechanical cute animal friends!"
+ "But current Rocket doesn't have any cute animal frien...oh"
Rocket is hands down the coolest earthling in the MCU. also i love how it turns out he was abducted from Earth around the same time as Peter (given the aesthetic of Counter Earth).
"Hurts" immediately brought a tear to my eye. 1 word but damn it hit so hard.
A perfect way to end their trilogy imo. Great balance of action, emotion, and comedy. Gunn confirmed we finally understand Groot because we as an audience have been around him long enough. The Legendary Star-Lord was its own comic run for a bit, so its totally possible for a solo movie.
The first GOTG was my mom’s favorite comic book movie ever, sadly she passed away from cancer complications in 2015 at just 65 years old. What hooked her to the movie at first was the soundtrack of many of the songs she grew up on, but then she loved it so much that she became a fan of the MCU. It’s why this franchise has a very special place in my heart.
So when Dog Days Are Over (ANOTHER favorite of mine and my mom’s) was playing and the Guardians were celebrating/moving on with their lives, I was a wreck. Not out of pain of loss, but of remembering the good times I had with my mom.
As for the movie itself, it’s one of my top 10 favorite comic book movies ever, as well as an all time favorite. With a supervillain I have never wanted to kill more than The High Evolutionary. And I love that the song that was played to send off the Guardians Of The Galaxy was the first song we as the audience heard when we saw Peter in the opening titles of Vol 1.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go listen to Come And Get Your Love by Redbone!
I could be wrong but I imagine that part of the reason they used a CGI for Cosmo is because, outside that turtle put in the chamber, I think every animal and anthropomorphic animal was CGI or makeup/prosthetics. It might actually be more distracting if we accept them as animals but then there’s a real dog and take away from the viewer’s emotional connection with all the clearly fake animals that were central to the story. Keep in mind, they used a real dog in Cosmo’s cameo in the first film so they are very much capable of using one.
I can understand the sentiment of having too much senseless CGI clogging up a much overworked industry. Looking at you Thor’s stupid helmet in the last film! But here I can understand why they deemed it the better option to go with CGI Cosmo. If its gonna take you out of the film, it’s best to have it with the secondary character than Rocket and his friends.
I think every animal in this movie including the turtle is cgi. That's how good the cgi is in all of the James gunn's movies even the peacemaker show.
22:08 was the first and only time he got to touch any part of Lylla that was warm. Only her robotic arms fit through the bars.
"I love you guys" Made me tear up.
James Gunn confirmed that yeah, the reason the audience can now finally understand Groot is because he considers us family.
This movie definitely has the best marvel movie oneshot
Also the ending and the implications of James gun leaving marvel made it even more emotional. It was the most I cried in a marvel movie
How James turned d-tier characters to a household name. DC is in good hands.
I just realized the final shot of Vol 2 is Rocket crying. And the final shot of the trilogy is Rocket screaming in joy.
Cosmo is actually emoting though. I dont think any amout of training can make a dog look like its telekinetically moving a pebble, or 2 huge slabs of concrete or hold 2 ships together. And thats if you ignore the obvious uncomfortable nature of getting a dog in a space suit lmao
Us being able to understand Groot at the end after all this time really hit different man, that felt like a very personal goodbye almost from James, this movie had me tearing up multiple times in the cinema I swear 😂
I really like that the people of Knowhere have such respect and reverence for the Guardians. Even when they’re being jerks, the people want to help them or support them, even coming to their rescue when called. Really makes you think how much of a positive influence the Guardians have been.
The quick half second cut to the woman screaming after Gamora shot her was so so good. this movie is both the funniest MCU movie and the saddest at the same time. James Gunn did an incredible job.
I love The Guardians Movies, but Guardians 3 made me cry more than any movie in the last 10 years. Thank you, James Gunn.
I had chills running down my spine once rocket screamed in pure pain and sadness after Layla died. The hallway fight scene was just awesome! Ended up crying during so many scenes! Especially at the end as everyone started celebrating and dancing. This trilogy of guardians was great from start to end
James Gunns track record makes me think he'll do superman justice. All his superhero entries have been phenomenal
Almost burst into tears when Nebula started dancing at the end. Really solidified the conclusion of her arc. One of the best in the MCU.
I love how Adam Warlock went from being a bit of simpleton to being able to appreciate the music of Adrian Belew as well as the music of King Crimson during Belew's run with the band.
Hey... someone had to mention it. I was SO HAPPY when he mentioned Adrian Belew! YAY!
High Evolutionary is actually still alive. You can see Drax carry him out and a deleted scene has Ricket lock him up in a cage on Knowhere
33:20 is pretty much Sokka and the Badgermoles bursting out of the labyrinth in Tale of Two Lovers . 😊
My favorite lines from the entire series is Quill and Yondu interaction when Quill tells Yondu that he looks like Mary Poppins. "Is he cool?"
"Hell yeah, he's cool."
Gunn and the GotG trilogy is just leagues beyond anything else to come out of the MCU, the endings of Vol.2 and Vol.3 are the only superhero movies to ever make me cry (not ashamed to say I sobbed my god damn heart out to the end of this one, actually). one of the best trilogies in film history?
I’d like to think since Nebula has that hi tech arm it’s maybe Bucky’s arm!! Just remade
can we give it up for Chris Pratt and Sean Gunn/Bradley Cooper for both leaving everything out there with the two screams, and for Karen Gillan with the perfect sob... my fucking soul, man.
You meant to be a father.
Drax: 19:40
Feel like the Star Lord return will come back for Avengers 5, when the planet is threatened again, Peter will fight for his home. A Disney+ would be intriguing but i just don’t see them doing a stand-alone star lord project. Especially after his version of the guardians is all but disbanded
I have been waiting to watch this with you guys and it was sooooo worth it! Your open hearts and humanity make the experience so enjoyable!! ❤🎉
oh god I forgot Otters are Calvins favorite animal
So, one of the stories I heard is that Gunn wasn't interested in doing Guardians of the Galaxy in the first place until, as he was thinking about it, he connected with Rocket and realized that, while Peter was the main character from the greater MCU perspective, Rocket was _his_ main character. With this and the ability to look back at all of the other Guardians movies... you really do see the core of it all... and I feel like this movie gives a new layer of appreciation to the other Guardians movies.
42:15 'My mother died in front of me when I was 8 years old and i have been running ever since.'
thanks flash
Peter seeing his grandfather genuinely made me cry and i havent cried at a Marvel project since Endgame, James Gunn is a fucking legend
Strongly disagree on Eric about Cosmo being CG over live action. Yeah it will look more like a physical dog, but it couldn't do even a fraction of the emoting Cosmo does. Not just in the face, but its movement. Cosmo does more than you can accomplish just with training or treats. Cosmo needs to be CG to work
Sure, there are some scenes that require CG, but most of the scenes could have been done without. I think the argument he was making is that the use of CG when it wasn't needed breaks the immersion. Heck, look at some of the old Jim Henson work. In Labyrinth, Fraggle Rock and the Storyteller, they use a real dog in several places and sometimes they use a Muppet. The real dog helps you believe the Muppet.
Plus Cosmo can be super powerful from what I hear so they’re gonna end up needing to use CG anyways during those crazy moments
It's amazing how much I fell in love with nebula from the first to third volume.
The reason for the aspect ratio change is that you are watching an IMAX-enhanced version of the film on Disney+. Just like seeing it in an IMAX theater, certain scenes have different ratios to include more picture.
There's a beautiful piece of irony in The High Evolutionary's obsession with Rocket that I only noticed on repeat viewings. It wasn't just Rocket's intelligence that allowed him to fix the machine, it was his perception. Meanwhile The High Evolutionary would never have thought to look for a mistake in something he made, his ego made him blind to it. A mistake he repeats with counter earth.
This is easily one of the best movies in the mcu by far. Now i cant wait to see what James gunn has planned for his new dcu. Given what a great job hes done with suicide squad and peacemaker, i think hes gonna give us a memorable superman movie and maybe the best one yet.
I love you Guys which was just one extra word
"Quite the novel escape plan. Jumping headfirst into an exploding planet."
23:38 (And at 22:13, 28:37, 32:08 & the entire end scene from 42:10 to the credits as well) - *_F*cking Great Storytelling: That's why!_*
36:29 - *_Fun fact: James Gunn confirmed that, had he still been alive, THAT weird, mutated and deformed creature would have been Stan Lee's cameo for this movie (I wish we could have seen that!). This shows that much of the details of GotGvol.3 were already well in place in Gunn's head before his firing from MARVEL!_*
37:13 - *_I REALLY love the use of Mantis' powers here: It's not often that you see a character that has the power to make another feel so strong and focused that they can surpass even what they believe they do themselves. Quite novel and well thought!_*
38:56 - *_Quill said it: "It's a FACE OFF!"_* 😝👍
honestly the best thing about this movie that a lot of people dont recognise is how low stakes it was. like dont get me wrong rocket potentially dying is pretty high stakes just not in the sense of world ending occurances. the guardians weren't even after the high evolutionary, their paths just crossed cause this was personal. thats why it hit so deeper. this is what the mcu needs to learn is not every story needs to have global threats and consequences. sometimes the best movies are character pieces at their core.
Dude a planet blew up. But nah I get what you mean, this was a far more personal and intimate story which made it hit so much harder than any other MCU movie.
Thank you, for waiting to watch this with us. 😊
Also: HUGE props to Rooker, for sitting in make-up for 7hrs, for a 2sec shot. Legend.
110,000 dollars for a days work, sign me up ha.
the way i cried the whole movie 😭. and i have never hated a villain as much as the high evolutionary in a marvel movie
Honestly, i feel GOTG3 is one of the best films the MCU released. And Guardians have the strongest Trilogy in my opinion.
This film was a masterpiece for me. Perfect character progression and every emotion you can imagine.
I hope James Gunn can do some good work at DC.
13:15 no, Yondu did. The death of him is what brought them together, and this is shown in one of the credit scenes for Guardians 2
This movie will never not make me ugly cry and I absolutely love it for that.
One of my favorite reactions you guys have had. I saw this alone in theaters, but I was crying nearly the entire movie. Happy tears, Sad tears, relief tears... all the tears.
