Peter Quill: " Exactly like Footloose. Is it still the greatest movie in history? Peter Parker: "It never was." Yes, they really do sell maps of the Hollywood stars homes to tourists in California...they even have bus tours. Lol 🤣😆 Star Lord's blasters in the MCU are called Quad Blasters. In the comics he uses a weapon called an Element Gun. 😊
1:44 The song is *Fairytale of New York* by The Pogues an Anglo-Irish Celtic, folk punk band. Shane MacGowan the lead singer only passed away on 30 November 2023 so the music is very fitting. I can't speak for America but Fairytale of New York is a stable of Christmas in Ireland and The UK.
Hello Emma, if you remember from Guardians 1 Quill mentions to Gamora the movie Footloose with Kevin Bacon. Also in Infinity War Quill and Peter talk about that movie. And Thor and the Guardians talk about if Kevin has join the Avengers.
Merry Christmas! Since you asked, the song playing over the Marvel logo was "Fairytale of New York" by the Pogues, often mistakenly mis-titled as "Christmas in the Drunk Tank"
The reference in the Christmas song about the elf "sleeping with the fishes", is from a combination of the Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer character Hermey, whose dream was to be a dentist, and an Unsolved Mysteries-themed Christmas episode of Robot Chicken, where Santa has Hermey put down as a traitor, alá the Godfather.
3:55 No, my mum was all about David Hasselhof (back in his Michael Knight era), which is pretty appropriate for a GotG video, come to think of it. ^_~ Hope that you have a muchly merry christmas, Emme!
Completely different holiday but I think you would kill it wearing Mantis cosplay for Halloween!? Youve got the hair and the sweet seeming nature… until you are crossed!😜 Love the channel and just wanted to say Happy Holidays!❤🎄❤
Looking beautiful Emme! Love your wet hair look 😲And Merry Christmas Happy Holidays (like n'sync). If you want to torture yourself try the Star Wars Holiday Special lmao 🙂
Mantis’ parentage was originally from a deleted scene in Volume 2. It happened during Yondu’s funeral. While Kraglin was teaching Star-Lord how to use the Zune that Yondu left as a parting gift, Mantis confided in Drax that Ego was also her father. Cosmo was part of the Collector’s collection. When the Guardians purchased Knowhere, they released Cosmo and welcomed her to the team. My favorite funny moments were bulletproof Drax, Rocket lunging at Kevin, and Bucky’s arm. Also, Fictionaldarling pointed out that Peter might not be the most rational among the Avengers but he definitely is the most rational among the Guardians. He has to be especially with Gamora gone. Even Nebula respects him as a leader. My favorite heartfelt moments were Peter’s reaction to the winter wonderland, Groot getting a Game Boy as a present, and Peter realizing that he still had family by blood. I also gotta talk about the music. I’m so glad we got more unique holiday songs in this special. The only track I was already familiar with was Christmas Wrapping by The Waitresses which is what played in the night club. The first time I heard that song was in Shrek the Halls. While I liked the beat from the first song, I personally liked the lyrics in the second song a lot more. There’s also a big change in ambience between the two. The crowd wasn’t into the first song, but when Kevin joined in they clearly got a standing ovation. By the way, Kevin has a band with his older brother Michael. They’re simply called the Bacon Brothers. I think I speak for all of us when I say that we can’t wait for you to get to Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3. Until then, the Guardians demand our silence.
3:45 I’ve decided to adopt the Santa lore described in this song while keeping some of the Saint Nicholas lore as well. My Santa flies around beating heretics with his cane while throwing sugar plums at good, orthodox children’s heads.
Seeing this up on YT just put me in a great mood 😊 I was afraid no reactors got the Guardian Holiday Special up in time for Christmas. Thank you for all your great videos Emme. Very Happy Holidays to you!!
Just looking in my right-hand column, I see that Addie, for one, had it last year. Not to push other channels, and surely not on Emme's, but just to counter your "no reactors" bit.
@@enigmamz I meant no reactors had it out "this" year obviously. Please don't passive-aggressively try to counter friendly comments. Just keep those thoughts to yourself next time.
Merry Christmas!!! I forgot how much I enjoyed this Holiday Special. I think ongoing to watch it in its entirety again late today. I wish you would get a PO Box and leave the addy in the description so that you can receive gifts. I’ve been rehabbing an injury for the better part of this year and RU-vid has gotten me though a lot of the time when I wasn’t very ambulatory and your channel was a part of that. It will be late but everyone needs to have a Christmas Sweater.
Hola Emme, este es en hermoso especial de Navidad de los Guardianes de la Galaxia por cierto te deseo una Feliz Navidad con tus amigos y familiares 🌲🌲🎉🎉🥂🥂🍾🍾saludos con mucho cariño desde PERÚ.✌😎
I think the animated parts were a callback to the Star Wars Christmas special. ... The crack about Kevin Bacon makes me feel old. I remember when Footloose came out. He had a far more serious part in Taking Chance. ... Rocket got Bucky's arm. LOL. "Oh, I'm gonna get that arm..." That seems to be the start of Yondu's Troll collection. My personal favorite special is the Charlie Brown Christmas. Have a happy Christmas!
17:22 wait, I thought earlier movies established that Peter's father is that godlike alien that came to Earth and impregnated his mother? I must have missed one of the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. lol 🙂
That same movie established that Yondu was more of a father figure to Peter than Ego ever was. Yondu even iconically said "He may have been your father, boy, but he wasn't your daddy."
