I don't always post on the off-topic forum, but when I do it's because no one else I know in real life knows who the Guardians of the Galaxy are. Thoughts on the trailer?
Looks like fun. I'm glad they went with the "intro to the characters" style of trailer, given that most people have no freaking idea who these people are.

The first time I saw a Guardians of the Galaxy comic I thought it was some form of Green Lantern spin off...
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.

Figure her background will have been tweaked a wee bit for this.

Could've sworn I posted in this thread not 10 minutes ago. Apparently not.
I said over in the other Marvel thread that this is going to be great if they don't take it too seriously, and seeing this trailer? Yep, they've cracked it.

At the GOTG conference at the last Comi-Con, Karen Gillan walked out with red hair, and then halfway through shocked the audience by taking her hair off, revealing it to be a wig.
So yeah, she shaved her head for this. That's dedication.

I like Pratt's "come on, man" humor but everything else seems generic and could easily have been taken from the trailer for any given recent sci fi picture.
I'm very excited. Can't wait to hear Rocket's Joe Pesci inspired voice.

Overall I'm rather "meh" about this. I'd never even heard of this group until they started talking about the movie, and honestly when I saw one of the characters was a raccoon, they kinda lost me.
I'm sure it'll be a decent flick, Marvel has been doing a great job lately, but I've got no excitement at all about it.
I think Starlord Is gonna be my favorite.
Still, im wondering how this will fit into continuity? Are they humans? Aliens that look like humans? Post humans?

Starlord is human/Terran(it even notes that on his holo-rap sheet). The rest are mostly human-looking aliens(there's a LOT of those in Marvel), although there are more Terrans than you'd think out amongst the stars.

That use human words and obsecene gestures....? Oh well, I guess some liberty is allowed. Oh, I just remembered, All of Thors people are human in a way aswell, well the ones from other planets

Shortly after Thor 2, I believe.
