Subject: New Guardians Of The Galaxy Trailer: This Time, It's Awesomer...
Man, this is one of the few movies I'm actually excited for because it seems so strange as a superhero movie plus I like it's goofy style. Say what you want about the Marvel Studios movies, but at least they seem more willing to take risks with these massive budget projects than other studios Captain America 2 felt like a spy movie, Iron Man 3 had moments where it felt like a buddy cop movie, Avengers was a massive team up of a movie that could have turned into a mess, etc.

Yeah, and that's what's so great about Marvel. Each film isn't just a Super Hero movie, they all have their own genres. Thor is very Fantasy/Sci-fi (The second more than the first), Cap 1 was a proper war film, Iron Man borders on comedy and also keeps the tech-aspect that none of the other have. And now Guardians looks like a cross between Avengers and Star Wars, and it's going to be great.
DC are struggling to cram some of their most well-known characters into a bloated second movie, Marvel are making a 10th with a talking tree and a racoon with a gun addiction....

If you don’t like spoilers, this is definitely the post to skip.
Otherwise, here’s what we’ve learned: Stan Lee will have his customary cameo, this time as the ‘Xandarian Ladies’ Man;’ browncoat favorite Nathan Fillion will be dolled up as ‘Monstrous Inmate;’ musician Rob Zombie lends his voice as the ‘Ravager Navigator Voice;’ and writer/director James Gunn himself will appear in the film as one of the ‘Maskless Sakaaran.’
Also appearing in the film, though not a cameo, is actor Fred the dog who assumes the role of Cosmo.
But saving perhaps the best for last… we’re not exactly sure what it means yet — if anything — but while he couldn’t get himself a 25th anniversary Blu-ray (and not from lack of trying), Marvel legend Howard the Duck is somewhere to be found in the film. This inference comes from a line in the end titles that credits co-creators Steve Gerber and Val Mayerik. Whether it’s just a film/comic Peter Quill was familiar with before he was abducted from Earth or we’re about to have a new entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is just about anyone’s guess. But with San Diego Comic-Con just around the corner…
blimey eh ?
The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.
