I'm a DC guy so other than the big name Avenger's & X-Men characters I know little to nothing about the rest of the Marvel Universe so I literally know nothing about this comic or these characters!

Seems like a pretty good cast though?:unsure:

Anybody see Chris Pratt (Andy from Parks and Rec) lately? Dude is pretty ripped now. He had gained a ton of weight for a role, and recently hit the gym to get in shape for this movie.

All that weight gain/weight loss can't be good for you that these actors do for roles.

If I recall right since your head needs sunlight and with less hair your head gets more sunlight it grows back faster until I think it's a foot.

Not that excited about this. Its almost like Marvel got giddy and excited with their success and freaked out. Now they are just making errthang. Guardians of the Galaxy? Ant Man? No thanks.

Yep. I have never been a big fan of Ant Man. That's just me obviously but if they just stuck with what they have now, I'd prefer it that way. I'm sure it will be well done as the others have but....eh.

I love Chris Pratt. He is perfect in Parks & Rec. It seems like TV and movie characters that are the "stupid guy" are so over the top and not believable, but his character hits the nail on the head.

What concerns me is that not a lot of people are familiar with Guardians of the Galaxy. With Avengers, XMen, Thor, Capt America, Spidey you have iconic comics and animated shows that help bring it to life. With this new movie most people I speak with are unfamiliar with these characters. Marvel/Disney will have to do a great marketing job to get people out to see this.

I'm guessing this will be a comedy with sci-fi elements?

I read a lot of Marvel when I was a kid and never heard of them. Is it newer? I haven't bought a comic since 1995 (outside of graphic novels).

The original GotG concept was kind of Buck Rogers-ish. Major Vance Astovik was an astronaut that fell into suspended animation only to be revived centuries later. He awoke in a time where Earth had colonized the galaxy and genetically engineered humans to live on the other planets in our solar system. Their first major storyline had them traveling back in time to assist the Avengers against a being named Michael Korvac.

But Marvel rebooted the idea several years ago to bring it into the same timeline as the Avengers and based it around some of their cosmic characters. Noticeably absent from the movie line-up are Nova, Moondragon, and Photon/Captain Marvel/Quasar. All three were part of the reboot. And on a sidenote, Moondragon and Quasar were an openly lesbian couple. I'm sure that made Disney cringe.

Yes, I was a fanboy/comic geek, but I'm reformed now.

I am a fan of James Gunn's works (Slither and Dawn of Dead Remake), and this looks great.

The Raccoon reminded me of a cartoon about bunnies with guns called Cat **** One. Check out trailer below:
