Yep They were fun. Although I didn't find myself grooving to Vol 3's music. They could have done so much better by just going back to 80's and 90's classics like in Vol 1 and 2 because the stuff from 20xx and up already sounded dated and not very classic (Florence And The Machines... bleh!).
@@1ManNamedDan funny you say 80's and 90's are classics but 2000's is dated. Not trying to bash you. I just find the situation funny. To those born in the 90's, like myself, imagining the 70's and 80's is what the current gen probably feel when imagining the 90's and 2000's since the time gap is similar. At one point, most music will change from popular to dated to classic depending on how much time has passed
@@1ManNamedDan that wouldn’t have made sense, vol 1 was 70’s-80’s music, vol 2 was 80’s-90’s music so vol 3 NEEDED to be 90’s- 2000’s music otherwise the trope Gunn set up in the very first scene of the first movie would have completely gone to waste
My interpretation from the movie is that Groot makes you understand him once you're in his circle, but I didn't catch that "I love you guys" until you explained it. Beautiful.
@@courier6402 which is what I said. Just worded differently. So you meant "Yes, but to be specific, it was a class at school". Your need for correcting a woman was intense huh? How does it feel having me correcting you back?
There's so many good scenes in this movie, really love this film. There's a scene where StarLord said "humans died at the age of 50" and Mantis replied "are you dying Quill?" Lmao this scene + this video saying that StarLord is 40 in the film really makes it that much better
The trading cards in Quill's backpack are Garbage Pail Kids which were huge in the mid 80s and Topps brought back in 2005 and have continued since. I write and paint the new cards!
There are also some 2001 eggs, one of which is Phyla running in the "hamster wheel", which occurs two times in 2001 -- once early with the stewardess on the Pan Am flight to space, the other later on with Dave running on the inside of a larger hamster wheel for exercise.
The OP missed the fact that the female humanoid eating yara roots is Gunn’s wife, not even mentioned as one of those who worked with Gunn in Suicide Squad and Peacemaker
SPOILER AND the "I love you guys" ,aside from being a way to say that we're all close enough to him to understand him is, ALSO, Gunn talking to the crew and us.
You missed the shootout on high evo's ship with Peter and Groot. It tells us that Peter has been training Groot with his blasters, just like young Peter was trained in GotG vol.2 flashback by Yondu.
Peters grandpa is seen in Vol 2 when Egos expansion is happening. He and his care taker are in the vehicle that gets its rear up lifted. So we knew that he was still alive before Vol 3 happens.
Missed the hula girl in the back of the car, behind Groot. A reference to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. in which it was first seen. It was later seen in Loki and WandaVision as well.
You missed Nebula with wings rising above Adam Warlord. As she points her arm towards him I believe she is supposed to represent Arch Angel Gabriel blowing his trumpet (arm is trumpet shaped).
@@jcIIXVIIIVII Remember that odd series where two robots were raising children on a planet- forget the name- 'raised by wolves' or something. She was called 'Mother'. She was a bit like this- rising up like a crucified Christ figure and blasting a trumpet like scream. Either way I thought it had that kind of 'avenging angle' biblical thing about her. Of course all the Marvel stuff is all very symbolic and archaic.
I thought about this, and no doubt, they are my favorite team in the whole superhero franchise. So happy for the trilogy, and makes me sad to say goodbye. 🥲 James Gunn always knows how to build a team.
The elevator scene is a lot more than just admitting mistakes it was also done spitefully because of corpos interfering they usually do when it comes to storytelling
The whole running back for the Zune thing seemed like a repeated beat to me and initially unnecessary. After some thought though I realised it was so important to him (not just because yondu gave it to him) because he wanted to give it to Rocket
Guardians of the Galaxy is not over. This is the end of James Gunn directing the movies, but as we see in credits scene 'The Legendary Star-Lord will return' as well as the new team probably under some new name for the series like 'New Guardians of the Galaxy' or something. Like a comic book you know? We're done one story arc, and we've moved onto the next. A lot of the original cast are likely to return in smaller roles as well aside from Dave Bautista and Zoe Saldana who are both for sure done with the series. I'm kind of sick of people saying this is end because their brains can only process things in trilogies. My favourite characters just joined the team! Things are just getting started!
thing is, this is the end of the "original" MCU Guardians, and seeing how MCU is treating it's IP the plot of the next guardians is going to be a piece of crap... and that's sad
It was absolutely genius. Drax talks a lot about his past, we already have a series based on Groot's past... We know what happened to Quill, Gamora and Nebula essentially so it leaves Rocket's origin story to be told. And what I like about it the most is that it Gunn made sure to leave us easter eggs and stuff in the previous 2 films (I guess its kinda easy when basing a movie from actual comics) rather than completely changing the story. James Gunn knows how to make movies with a bang quite literally sometimes and if Marvel ain't up for it, im still happy he probably will be making DC movies come to life.
The flip Marvel logo was created for Sam Raimi's Spider-Man movie. In the DVD commentary, he said that Marvel Studios didn't have an intro or a logo when he was making the movie, so he made it for them
There’s also a little detail that I thought was interesting that my friends didn’t catch and I didn’t see mentioned here either but, The High-Evolutionary had all those imprisoned children that spoke Kylosian and perhaps (like Drax) were some of the last of their kind unless they were inbreds. Remember that Kylosians are literal people that have no real sense of humor. The High-Evolutionary needs that mindset with all his subjects and subordinates. Pretty dark stuff
I didn’t catch it the first time when we understood Groot. The second time, bam! Ohhhh, it’s because WE can understand him now like Gamora suddenly could. That just melted my heart so much!!❤❤❤
It’s been about 12yrs but, regardless of the X-Men not fighting Thanos, X-Men is in the MCU and X-Men First Class dropped the first F-Bomb when Xavier and Magneto went to recruit Wolverine to which Wolverine replied “Go ____ yourself”
I didn't enjoy the music in Vol 3 as much as I did the first two. I guess it was the Walkman LOL Guardians Vol 3 was freaking epic, though!! Beyond epic!
Oh I'm sure they had this video ready to go a week ago, at least. Critics and RU-vidrs with channels like this got to screen this movie way before us regular folk could. That's why weeks before it was released it had so much hype behind it.
I wish it was a better selection of music... their were the classics that are so loved, but I felt James Gunn could of chosen better music of the 2000's
The Russo's, Watts and Gunn were the BEST directors the MCU ever had. They each gave us THE BEST trilogies in the MCU This film was far more emotional than No Way Home, and I didn't think that would be possible. Masterpiece!!
You say Gunn “dipped into the DC well” here, but he dipped way more into the MCU well for The Suicide Squad…Elba, Stallone, Fillion, Sean, Rooker, Pom, Taika…
What is awesome about the Marvel Canon, is there are no God's in it. Even the Celestials are beings that were created by another hand. The One-Above-All, the most omnipotent being, even references that he/it explains he had a creator. But that comic referenced the comic writer as the creator. 😮🤔
Just got out from seeing it a second time! Was it intentional or accident that a woman’s face started getting severely clawed up by the monkey Mantis threw through the barrier to save it???
Did u really call GOTG a "mini franchise"? 3 movies, both of the last avengers films, and the ONLY holiday special....there's nothing "mini" ab them ma'am
Mini franchise meaning it is a franchise within a franchise. The greater franchise is the MCU proper. There are mini franchises within the greater franchise. Iron Man, Captain America, Ant Man, even the Avengers are all mini franchises within the greater franchise.
We probably won't see him again until Kang Dynasty or Secret Wars...unless there's a 5th Thor movie and he makes an appearance. Quill is on Earth now and could go visit New Asgard.
Lil fun fact: today I was talking about guardians of the galaxy with a friend of mine and I said gomorra instead of Gamora...gomorra is the Italian mafia so yep...it was a big fail (the high revolutionary is a rip off Enrico Pucci, Gus from breaking bad and Moff Gideon)
