They're natural enemies; a living planet, and a guy who eats planets for breakfast. Thought he was a giant cloud? Only in that disappointing Fantastic Four/Silver Surfer travesty.

fastballspecial Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Saw it with the family today. I like the twist on the Celestials and how Ego Prime spreads. There was a huge lull in the middle of the film that I didn't care for. The music was not a hit. I didn't even hear "Fox on the Run" in the movie. Mantis was a nice touch look forward to see more of her if they can add more. Nice send off to original GoG, but I cant imagine they do more. Stallone is what 70? Loved the Watcher cameo with Stan and love the theory behind it. I could have sworn I saw the Champion in a cameo when they were jumping worlds. All in all it wasn't bad, just not the entertainment like Starlord dancing in the cave I enjoyed so much in the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 My son's spring hockey team went to watch this with their coaches on Saturday in between games. It was interesting - all of the boys said it was not as good as the first one. Their general consensus was it was okay, but spent too much time talking instead of fighting.

Flex Mentallo Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 The problem is that they reduced it to melodrama. Who's you daddy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 I guess this goes to show not all these movies are going to achieve one-billion dollars to prove a success. Even one coming off a very successful origin story. Still, a solid win for Disney/Marvel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted July 25, 2017 Author Share Posted July 25, 2017 Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2's Home Release Has Over 80 Minutes Of Extras According To Michael Rooker Quote Rooker, who played fan-favorite Yondu in the film, spoke to ComicBook.com during last weekend's San Diego Comic-Con.

Bosco685 Posted August 4, 2017 Author Share Posted August 4, 2017 Guardians Of The Galaxy's James Gunn Teases A "Big" Surprise For Later This Week Quote James Gunn loves to mess with the fans, but this time he's in a gift giving mood. The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 directors decided to throw his fans a bone, teasing a big surprise for the Marvel faithful. Perhaps it is something that will be exclusive to the Blu-ray and DVD release, or maybe it is a tease for Avengers: Infinity War or even Guardians 3?

Drummy Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 OK, that video is so weird it's kind of awesome. Enjoyed seeing the cast being 'game' for...whatever that was. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callaway29 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 WTF. I hope they did that as a target of opportunity while there was downtime on the set, otherwise a serious waste of time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 To be fair, I think Disney/Marvel wasn't openly offering digital download sales for many of its movies until Age of Ultron came out. To get a digital copy, you had to purchase a Blu-Ray bundle or a 3-D bundle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsilverjanet Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Saw this finally. It was entertaining but not as good as the original. Chris Pratt was a bit too much in this that it started to get annoying. The rest of the cast was great. greggy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daughter and wife loved it though. Wish it had a bit more obvious tie-in the MU proper. The family certainly didn't "get" the Warlock thing. Stan cameo was pretty good. Post credits scene with teenage Groot was funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewEnglandGothic Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I liked it enough. Nowhere near having that unique substance of the original though. But, essentially its a movie about families coming together and breaking apart, so that's a better theme than most funnybook movies offer.

Bosco685 Posted September 3, 2017 Author Share Posted September 3, 2017 What a cool place to work. And even better, what a surprise. Michael Rooker Visits Marvel Studios In Full Yondu Gear Quote Yondu lives again, at least inside the offices of Marvel Studios. Michael Rooker, star of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, got into full makeup and costume, including fin and blue skin, to pay a visit to the Marvel Studios offices in Burbank, California. Take a look at the video above to see Rooker make the day of several Marvel employees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VintageComics Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I liked this. I thought it was about as good as the original, and while the original was great it's important to step back and put it into perspective. Marvel took a forgettable franchise with a bunch of characters that nobody could possibly care about and build a world class franchise out of it.
