Guardians of the Galaxy

>Peter's mom dies of a tumor
>Peter is kidnapped as a child
>His father is Ego who has a penis
>Gamora and Nebula are depicted as sisters (rather than aunt and niece)
>The Nova Corps don't have helmets granting them powers
>The collector is just some eccentric
>Gamora and the Guardians 3000 are seemingly depicted as being from the present
>Drax, Mantis, Adam and a few other characters who aren't meant to be aliens are depicted as aliens
>Rocket has an American accent

So I guess that out of the MCU movies, the GotG movies are the least faithful then?

Somehing Something adapting for normies, which still isn't true.

Once upon a time I didn't care if a movie was faithful or not, as long as it was good.

But once upon a time movie synergy wasn't a thing. Once upon a time comic companies didn't dedicate entire miniseries into retconning their own stories to make them fit whatever the fuck the movies they were doing. Once upon a tiem the worst that could happen was a small detail to be adapted and integrated, or a character start looking like one of the actors...

Once upon a time.

Comics are for faggots, so no one cares.
Cue the crying of DnA faggots whining about muh faithfulness, when their entire shitty run is based on characters that were vastly changed previously, like Drax.

Looks like one of the 5 guardians comic fans is pissed off again.

The MCU honestly doesn't care about what the comics are doing. It was the comic office pulling that shit. Kevin Feige isn't telling them to make it more like MCU, it is just hack writers with no creativity.

Jesus Christ, I was just asking wheter or not the GotG movies changed more than the other movies in the MCU.

[Come a little bit closer intensifies]

It feels weird that the GotG movies set up the Thanos revenge to be carried out narratively by Nebula, Gamora and/or Drax where in reality it's going to be done by the Avengers in one of the Infinity War films.

In that respect it really does feel like the comics!

I feel like GotG occupies its own movie space a lot better than the other MCU movies do. Probably helps that it's not set on Earth.

Movie synergy is complete cancer, but that's a comics problem.

All of those characters will be in IW though.

>everyone jobs until Drax plotarmor kicks in and kills Thanos
How would people feel anyway?

I'm more amazed they are introducing Adam Warlock this late.

I love the movies, I just hate the comics have to readjust themselves to fit the movies

They did it then, just not as much. Morrison's X-Men had the black leather, Spider-Man was back in black for Spider-Man 3 though yeah not to the extent they retcon stuff I agree.

I appreciated that the scene went on and got more articulated and took on the whole ship
Too bad as in went on and partially shifted into disturbing as Yondu and Rocket keep murdering people laughing like madmen you'd certifiably know that Yondu would die for being too fucked up and in need of redemption

I blame Joss Whedon for shoving Thanos in at the post-credits scene of Avengers, we really didn't need that. Making the MCU about the infinity stones is lame when they're not dedicating time to tell us Thanos' story over a long period of time.

>Making the MCU about the infinity stones is lame when they're not dedicating time to tell us Thanos' story over a long period of time.

Thanos' story can be told in the five fucking hours we're getting out of IW with the two movies.

But those five hours will be about Tony and the Peters quipping at each other.

why are you even on Sup Forums

It was a good scene. I really liked the Yondu/Rocket fuckup bromance and Yondu's whole "Even if I am scum, I am also Dad" arc.

The Mary Poppins line was like the one dumb reference that was fucking perfect in the movie.

Because there's no dedicated cartoon board, so I don't have to see you shit eater cape readers.

Let's not forget that they changed TASERFACE

Hopefully we'll get Shocket on the 3rd movie.

Rocket being a cunt to everyone was the best part of the movie. He was nasty in the first one but the sequel really doubled down on it.

Drax is from Earth??

The cycle of comics inspiring movies that change comics that inspire other movies is positive for the characters. They become present in the minds of people and that is the base for continuing to matter and evolving.

He's a human, user.

Every character was boiled down to their one basic character trait in the sequel

But is he from EARTH?

Yes.

Where else would humans be from? His name is Arthur Douglas.

He's a real estate agent named Arthur Douglas. Thanos killed him and his family when they were just driving around the countryside, but Thanos' daddy resurrected him as Drax.

Comic fags are the worst, get over yourself you stupid nerd. Be happy people even know who The Guardians even are. Comics are dead and the MCU is the only thing keeping them alive.

>Comics are dead and the MCU is the only thing keeping them alive.
This statement is contradictory

What's sadder is Gunn's hate for Nova.

Not if you picture the comics as an organ donor on life support. The MCU harvests what they have to offer, but ultimately, that's the only use they are now.

>on life support
>dead

Nobody cares about Dick Ryder. Which is sad.

>hate

Is this like how Whedon "hates" Cap by not being a huge fan of him, or is there actual evidence of him hating the character.

"Not loving him" or "Not caring about him" is not sufficient evidence. There are such things as emotions in the middle of the spectrum, despite the Internets autistic obsession to disprove that.

Yes, user. Organ donors are braindead. The life support is there to keep the organs oxygenated and working until they can be transplanted. Else, they'd start to rot. And that's nooo good!

>braindead
>dead

Honestly, this is the thing I have a problem with. I love the GOTG film, but the comics are done by the most least creative people. They do jail breaks, again and again. The newest members of the Guardians have been Iron Man, Venom, Kitty Pryde, the Thing and Angela. We have a cartoon that spun its wheels to a degree that I'm honestly impressed with.

James Gunn's GOTG I love, but what Marvel has done is outright criminal. You know those spinoff comics that just ape what films in the 80's did and redo the plots? That's what the comic GOTG feel like now.

>>I feel like GotG occupies its own movie space a lot better than the other MCU movies do. Probably helps that it's not set on Earth.

The other part is that the GOTG actually try to be an individual franchise. I don't think the rest of the MCU felt like that since Phase I. Phase 2 made all their films feel like they're stuck on Earth with cold matalic buildings.

Yes, user. With the brain relinquishing its function, consciousness ceases and the body stops working. It dies. Except for, and hold on to your hat here, if you put it on life support, which will keep sending the necessary signals to the organs and flood the lungs with air.

>on life support
>life
>dead

Thanos won't live up to the hype. The MCU heroes are nowhere near capable of handling something as powerful as the Infinity Gauntlet, and movies tend to dumb down mighty moments from comics/cartoons.

Language is funny that way. Your organs are kept alive, but your consciousness, the part that makes you you, has been extinguished or fled where we can not observe it.

> The MCU heroes are nowhere near capable of handling something as powerful as the Infinity Gauntlet
Yeah, just like in the comic. Because the stones make you omnipotent.
>and movies tend to dumb down mighty moments from comics/cartoons.
You say that, and yet you obviously don't know the comic we're talking about here.

>the part that makes you you

What are you on about?
I have never observed any part of me going "you you".

really doubt the asgardians would hand off an infinity stone to "just some eccentric"

Oh, I know the comic, but the movie won't do anything like it. They wouldn't hype up 5+ years of THanos for all the heroes to lose and Nebula to save the day. I'm saying, we're gonna see Black Widow, Hawkeye and Falcon able to get blows off Thanos. It's going to be ridiculous.

>We will never get a more comic accurate, MCU Howard the Duck movie

It hurts.

I could see Hawkeye having a pocket sand type arrow thing to go for Thanos's eyes or something like that.

But not Widow or Falcon.

I think Nebula's anecdote about Thanos was an effective reminder that he's a colossal sack of shit. Previously his douchebaggery has been mostly inferred, so it was good that someone close to him pointed out that he's as bad as anyone.

"replaced my brain" still makes no sense as a line

>Watching children's cartoons is somehow less stupid than reading comic books
We're all degenerates here, user. Trying to deny it just makes you a faggot

At least it's not DC. Poor Henry. Oh, my poor sweet waifu-with-a-penis.

If her brain was replaced by a computer, how could she still have fraternal love for Gamora and forgive and hug her at the end?

She had parts of her brain replaced by cyborg parts. What's not to get?

Nebula was really entertainingly edgy. Full nothing personnel kid and not able to back it up.

That arrow is all kinds of bullshit, seriously
Turns out being really good at whistling makes you a freaking war god

Nobody in the movie acts like it's not some serious shit though. Even in the first movie. Like Rocket doesn't even try and pull some shit when he's staring down the arrow. Everyone knows it's nothing to fuck with.

>Once upon a time I didn't care if a movie was faithful or not, as long as it was good

Exactly, when compared to The First Avenger or The Winter Soldier, the 1990 Captain America film looks like a low-budget hack job. But damn if it didn't make me awestruck and giddy at the idea of man made god (the American Dream made flesh) fighting a tyrant with red face and cruel principals

Who hype for the new wave of Rocket porn? :3c

>The Nova Corps don't have helmets granting them powers

Only black helmets were the focus of Nova powers. Normal Nova helmets were only part of a uniform and had a HUD, Psionic shields, sensors and communication. The power itself was kept inside a corpsman's body.

Man, I remember watching this as a kid and really enjoying it.

Which is a good reminder that kids are always stupid and for every good piece of media that's smart and doesn't talk down to them, there's ten Annoying Oranges.

The 1990 movie and the old Marvel Super-Heroes cartoon from the 60's is what introduced me to Cap and made me love him as a kid

Thats the one aspect I hate and the only NOT MUH complaint i have about the GotG movies, Drax origin. Though so far nothing extra alien has been said about Drax so it can still be proven that he is indeed Arthur Douglas
