baby groot is the best part

Best how, comedy wise? I laughed more at drax's quips

who's your ayy lmaofu?

golden chick

>Shes aussie (like me)
straya cunt

Debecki is a 6'3 giantess so I pick her, cyborg-fu is the next best followed by quadroon neyney and lastly slanty eyed gook is her character a joke about how chinks are generally soulless insects?

Did thy give gunn full creative freedom?

Anyone with a pic of disheveled hair Debicki during the credits scene?

Seconding

Doesn't matter. He was clearly in "what do people want?" mode, intead of "what do I want to do?" mode. And now we have another installment of the horryfing concept of "filler movie in our cinematic universe. Next one will be good. Promise".

How the fuck did Gunn get so many cameos in? Mind blown a couple times.

My head says Mantis because I'm still thinking of her comic book counterpart despite her being completely different here
My dicki says Debicki

> tfw we missed out on a david bowie cameo

Debicki was so hot in this

Sheesh you're right.

Speaking of which, I notice Jeff Goldblum dancing in the credits scroll, did he even appear in the film proper?

>beginning of movie is baby groot dancing for 10 minutes
is this hell?

With good music, jokes and great visuals of a fight. Much better then just a plain fight.

The fact that they literally brought big ass speakers JUST for the music pissed me off.

the fight is hardly shown, all we had was some blurry/unfocused comical scenes on the background

You can tell Gunn likes 'Man of Steel'.

>complaining about baby groot
Wait till you see edgy teenage Groot

yeah, saw the after credits scene. I think I am just gonna torrent the next one

You can already see it. The whole next movie he's going to be constantly complaining, until the end where he gets to redeem himself because he got somebody killed earlier on

Nebula all day.

Pls no

Anyone watch this in 3d? I decided against it but I want to know if I missed out

...

I did, honestly can't remember any scenes that 3d stands out. don't bother

Nah, you missed nothing

did anyone else find the majority of jokes n quips to be just plan unfunny?


AND HOLY SHIT AT THAT BLATANT DAIRY QUEEN PRODUCT PLACEMENT

Somehow that role fits Vin Diesel.

Anyway the opening dance was the only Groot scene we didn't know about from the trailers. Glad they saved up the funnier scenes.

not at all
golden chick nearly gave me an hard on
I would assume that Marvel executives would have actually preferred if the movie had ties with the other Marvel movies. I don't think what you're saying makes sense tbqh
no
it was a great scene
Some of them, sure, but the majority? Nah.

>Marvel hates Sony
>Gunn replaces it with a Zune

Was the Zune a joke? If so it missed it's mark and just looked like straight product placement.

He'll be in Thor Ragnarok as an Elder of the Universe same as Del Toro

It's like they took all the funny off-handed things from GotG1 and did them again but 10x more.

So is the first half of Infinity War essentially going to be a side-scroller where Thanos travels through various "zones"(like an Asgard zone, a Xandar zone, a Collector's Base zone, and a Mystery zone) where we get cut-scenes revealing his backstory before he finally arrives on Earth for the last two stones?

Because we're 14 movies in and so far normies know basically fuck-all about his origins and motivations. I know it's possible to cram all that into one film, but given Disney's track record thus far, I don't see them pulling it off and making him carry more weight than any other "villain-of-the-week."

Yeah it was meant to be a joke as he said this is what everyone on earth is using now-a-days

Isn't Sam Neil and Laura Dern set to be in it as well or am i making that up

Rocket continues to be the only character worth watching it for.

Does this make me a furry?

it's a joke because its a dead meme player that never caught on

He seems to be the guy doing all the work in this movie

Yeah I just rewatched GotG 1 and it's really not that funny of a movie.

Like, it's funny, but the jokes come at a slower pace and they're less obvious jokes with a punchline and more amusing things that actually "realistically" fit into the situation.

The difference between eavesdropping on a bunch of guys at the pub who are having a hilarious conversation about something they did once, and watching stand-up comedy, I guess.

>THAT BLATANT DAIRY QUEEN PRODUCT PLACEMENT
what?

of course it's a joke, the Zune's discontinuated and 300 songs is hardly a feature these days

'cuz he's based.

Ayesha, but at the end with her hair down.

uh, I think we're skipping that phase, user

their next appearance (Avengers 3) is supposed to bring them to present day, that's enough time for Groot to grow back to full size

plus GotG 3 is a good 3 years away

Are they getting their own movie?

I would actually love it if Thanos was the main character of Infinity War but unfortunately I'm sure he'll be a standard antagonist who's off-screen for entire acts whos motivations are summed up in one scene

They'll make a clumsy attempt to ramp up the stakes by making """THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE""" in danger and that will be the substitute for developing him as a villain.

Exactly - this is what a lot of us are talking about when we say "quips." There's organic humor and comedy, and then there's forced, occasionally funny, but almost always out-of-place quips.

The first GotG had a lot of organic humor. From what everyone's describing, Volume 2 is already experiencing the standard Disney "quippification" all MCU films have started to suffer from.

They could have had him kill the Vision to sort of establish that he's both a badass as well as a nihilistic monster, but from some of the leaked stills, it doesn't even appear they have the sack to do that.

What's the red guy's name again?

Yep.

Bulk Hardpec.

This movie had the best Stan Lee cameo for what it's worth

Does cosmic MCU have a bright future?

Bolt Vanderhuge.

THe one in the first movie is better

Who's the blackhaired cutie? Why does Marvel keep adding waifus?

Watchers m8.

Wait a minute. The red lizard is a sorcerer like Strange?

The reason Spiderman was always top notch with his banter was that
A- he actually was a teenager so the sophomoric humor made sense
B- his generally served some kind of tactical purpose, usually goading villains to make the first move or fall into some trap

It also helps when your hero is capable of actually getting his ass kicked instead of being an obnoxious, untouchable twat with a million one liners.

Yeah Krugarr.

Sorcerer Slug

Ayesha

Because hot damn. The only flaw with her is that she actually has long hair.

Mantis/Drax Forever.
Nebula/Rocket just because I'm a jerk.

Exactly. Spidey's whole schtick is basically being the Bugs Bunny of superheroes. He'll spring around, seemingly effortlessly dodging your attacks while verbally shitposting the whole time.

It's why I love him.

Anyone know the song that's in the background when Yondu is introduced? At the whore house where he meets Stallone.

Just finished watching it, here are my thoughts

>didn't have enough momentum
>scenes dragged out for way to long
>the golden people should have only been in it at the start
>trying too hard with the jokes
>mantis was annoying
>directing was terrible at times

Everything else was pretty solid, I think they the took the best aspects of the first one and tried to emulate it. Good idea in theory, but didn't have the same impact.

Looks like Hela from Thor Ragnarok

>mfw this scene

You can complain about the movie all you want but the visual is A++ grade.

I CAN'T STANDS NO MORE

>"Mr. Blue Sky" - Electric Light Ochestra
"Fox on the Run" - Sweet
"Lake Shore Drive" - Aliotta Haynes Jeremiah
"The Chain" - Fleetwood Mac
"Bring It On Home To Me" - Sam Cooke
"Southern Nights" - Glen Campbell
"My Sweet Lord" - George Harrison

One of these

> the golden people should have only been in it at the start

They were there to introduce adam warlock, a character essential to the infinity war storyline

>tfw you realised Rocket was talking about leaving Yondu behind to die, not Quill

We can have Satanic trips but we can't have Mephisto.

>HERE TAKE THIS, THE EARTH PEOPLE CALL IT A ZUNE
wow really subtle product placement there

Doesn't fox own him? He was night crawler's father and showed up in first class right?

> discontinued june 2012

It was a joke

Yeah, so his role in the story will probably go to Loki.

>actually paying and watching guardians of the redditxy

Thats fine, but we didn't need them to be recurring characters throughout the movie.

>Guardians.of.the.Galaxy.Vol.2.2017.HDCAM.950MB.MkvCage
Ah ain't

Other ways to do that to be fair. Would've preferred the third act had them fighting Ego's anti bodies rather than vidya drones again. Drax didn't get to kick any ass this time around.

If Mephisto is tied to any group, it's the MCU. Mephisto is the legit lord of *an* underworld. Nightcrawler's dad is just Azazel.

Or at least that's how it was last time I read a comic.

Probably still you know this will happen in the next few months
>EPIC NEWS Microsoft announced a limited run of Zunes after PHENOMENAL fan demand to THAT Guardians scene.

Thanks but it's not any of those. It was some synth track.

T-thanks Sup Forumsmblr

Second half was way better than the first. Groot was annoying, Gamorra can't act and Im still wondering what happened to Batista's skin. Could've been lighter on jokes but overall it was a cut above your average marvel flick. 7/10

Pros
>distinct identity separate from other marvel films
>Pratt did a decent job
>Rocket being jailed on the spaceship and baby groot finding all the different items
>the massacre that followed the above
>Rocket, baby Groot and Drax
>soundtrack was awesome
>opening scene

Cons
>pacing was a nightmare
>too many plotlines, rushed, would have been much better as a miniseries
>so many of the jokes failed to land
>yandu's death lacked emotional resonance
>without the soundtrack, would have been significantly worse

Better than most marvel shit, worse than the first film

I want a zack snyder directed one more day film. I mean, who doesn't love that comic?

They did, Gunn confirmed a few times
It's why there are no ties to the mcu outside of the whole "Thanos is the girls' dad" thing

Feel kinda bad for Wright considering...

I still hate Bendis more than Snyder. At least 300 was a good adaptation.

>baby groot
>funny
literally exists to stop the children from getting bored and to sell toys

Wright got what he deserved. Also World's End sucked.

>what happened to Batista's skin.
New makeup method.

IT IS CALLED A PRACTICAL JOKE
I JUST MADE IT UP

So I just read Jim Starlin's Captain Marvel stuff yesterday. Why can't movie Drax fly and shoot lasers?

Peter's mom
