    Hi everyone! This is in fact a reupload. The previous upload got copyright claimed ... Once I removed the parts that they required to be deleted (with the RUclips automated cutter), the whole video and audio got desynchronized? I never had that happen before so I'm a bit confused. Since it was unwatcheable and I also couldn't undo it, I went trough the edit again and deleted alllllllll music. So I hope this one will be fine. Let's pray to the copyright lords :) I did upload this one and saved it as unlised for many hours (so it could be checked for copyright), so if this one gets claimed after I put it live, I just don't know if there is any way I can avoid this. Sorry for the inconvenience!

    It's pretty hard to explain to someone how satisfying this movie is.
    It's so silly and so sad. They take these characters who all have really painful pasts and stick them together on this zany quest to save the galaxy. It's a really funny movie... but underneath everything... is pain.
    Also... Isn't this the best movie ever made that has a climax that is just 4 people deciding to hold hands? Why is that so satisfying? I'm not sure.
    When I first heard that two of the Guardians of the Galaxy were a tree and a raccoon, I predicted that it would be Marvel's first failure. I liked the trailer, though, so I went to see it, and I was pretty surprised to find out that it was one of my favorites in the MCU.

    I grew up with always at least 3 cats around, and E.T. was my favorite as a child. She got the name because she had a genetic defect that made her grow an extra claw on the rear of her heels, she couldn't use it tho, was just haning there like an extra finger...hence E.T. :) But she was so smart...and empathic, when i was 7 and my parents broke up, ET would always come to my room at around 2200, she could actually jump up on door handle and pull it down and then use her leggs to push open the door ( european doors with handles, not knobs like in the US)
    And she'd sleep on my bed which always made me calm down and be more relaxed.

    The very first time I saw this movie, it had started playing without me knowing what it was. The first scene, where his mother is dying gave me flashbacks to the day I walked into my grandmother's room at the nursing home to visit her, and the doctors and nurses were performing CPR on her. I had to shut it off, and it was a while before I attempted to watch it again. That's all the further I made it today, too, but I'll be back tomorrow to finish your video.

      When Marvel was struggling, they sold off the movie rights to their most well-known (and presumably most profitable) characters: Spiderman, X-Men, Wolverine, Hulk, Fantastic Four. They figured that only the most popular characters would make profitable movies. This is part of the reason why the MCU started with Iron Man - who was really more of a second-string character at the time. But it worked, and eventually, someone decided to take a big risk with Guardians of the Galaxy - a mostly unknown group, even among comic book fans. I followed Marvel Comics for many years, and I had just barely heard of them. I thought, "What were they thinking? Making a GotG movie? No one is going to come and see that! No one ever heard of these guys!" But they didn't consult me and made the movie anyway. And it turned out to be a really good movie!

    You can figure out what he’s saying based on the inflections. People who have been around him longer have an easier time of this.

    Hey, Marijchu! "Guardians of the Galaxy" was an acquired taste for me. I like my science fiction sober so it always surprises me when the zaniness of this franchise appeals to so many. I reacted negatively upon initially viewing this bizarre, star-hopping hodge-podge of juvenile lunacy because it was at such variance with the source material! There were two fantastic comic book iterations of the team that I felt outclassed the cinematic interpretation: Jim Valentino's '90s Guardians which exist in an alternate 31st-century and Dan Abnett/Andy Lanning's '00s Guardians which is the basis for the movies. Each member of the Valentino team was the sole survivor of their kind including a time-displaced 20th-century character who served the same function as Captain America did for the Avengers. They were freedom fighters struggling against an alien invader that occupied the solar system. The Abnett/Lanning team was cobbled together from a disparate group of characters who had been created by a variety of writers and artists throughout the decades such as Steve Engelhart, Mark Gruenwald, Jim Starlin, Chris Claremont, Gerry Conway, Jack Kirby and Stan Lee. The writing duo crafted a brilliant space opera that tied together all the elements of Marvel's cosmic gallery: the abstract entities, the Elder beings, the Celestials, Earth's space-based heroes and every major interstellar civilization. There was situational and character comedy naturally derived from a motley crew of misfits but the stories were serious and the stakes were real. Most everything is played for laughs in the film. Nevertheless, the humor mostly lands and there is an emotional resonance that carries the day.
    I do give director James Gunn tremendous credit for pushing the envelope and going for broke with these little-known characters bringing them to vivid life. He takes pains to authentically recreate Marvel's cosmic setting by incorporating organizations like the Nova Corps, facilities like the Kyln prison and wondrously grotesque objects like Knowhere, the severed head of a titanic Celestial that has been colonized by millions and mined of its cerebrospinal fluid!
    The cast is eclectic but fully committed to their characters which often deviate markedly from their comic counterparts. Chris Pratt is affable and affecting as Peter Quill but his bravado comes across as childish as opposed to the world-weary drifter Star-Lord is in the comics. Zoe Saldana is appropriately fierce as Gamora but is never given a proper showcase to confirm her as 'the deadliest woman in the galaxy'. Drax is presented as a fusion of the dense persona created by Jim Starlin in the '70s and the stoic bad-ass persona he evolved into under Abnett/Lanning. Dave Bautista's impressive comedic portrayal threads the needle between the two versions spectacularly making his character a stand-out! Bradley Cooper nails Rocket Raccoon as a smart-mouthed, bitter, nasty piece of work. The only character in the bunch actually created by Stan Lee is Groot whose enigmatic portrayal is comic accurate and highly distinctive. There was no need for Vin Diesel to be cast in this part but he apparently learned how to say "I am Groot" in fifteen languages! Diesel would have been ideally suited to play Ronan the Accuser had he been rendered with fidelity. Instead, Lee Pace, a fine actor, was made to portray him as a ridiculous maniac while his comic counterpart is much more noble and complex. When viewed chronologically, this is Ronan's second appearance in the saga as well as Korath's again played by Djimon Hounsou. Three other characters making their second bow are Taneleer Tivan, the Collector, reprised by Benicio del Toro, his red-skinned servant Carina reprised by Ophelia Lovibond and the Chitauri spokesman known as The Other reprised by Alexis Denisof. The Nova Corps of Xandar are introduced led by Glenn Close's Nova Prime in an elaborate wig! Most notable among the Corpsman are John C. Reilly's Rhomann Dey and Peter Serafinowicz's Denarian Saal. Sharif Atkins and Brendan Fehr also play nameless Nova Corpsman. The space pirate Nebula who claims Thanos as her grandfather in the comics is repurposed as Thanos' second adoptive daughter and Gamora's rival in the film where she is played by Karen Gillan. Thanos himself, only briefly glimpsed in "Avengers", finally emerges from the shadows played by Josh Brolin. Gunn rounds out the cast with his usual stable including Michael Rooker as the Centaurian Ravager Yondu Udonta. In the comics, Yondu is from the 31st-century Valentino team of Guardians and he uses a bow to fire his yaka arrows whereas the movie sets Yondu among the Abnett/Lanning team of Guardians and cleverly has him whistle to control the flight of his sound-sensitive yaka arrow. Other Gunn troupe members are the director's brother, Sean Gunn, as Ravager Kraglin, Nathan Fillion as the lewd CGI inmate who gets hoisted by his nostrils and Gregg Henry as Grandpa Quill. Laura Haddock plays cancer-stricken Meredith Quill and Wyatt Oleff of "It" plays young Peter. Tomas Arana has a bit part as the Kree Ambassador as does sepulchral-voiced Ralph Ineson as a Ravager pilot. Finally, Seth Green provides the voice of Howard the Duck!
    TRIVIA:
    1. Chris Pratt lost sixty pounds for the role, Karen Gillan shaved her head and Vin Diesel stood on stilts when delivering his lines.
    2. Director James Gunn rewarded any cast or crew member for especially good work with a can of Play-Doh. He gave out forty of them during the shoot.
    3. Quill's ship, the 'Milano', is named after the character's childhood crush, Alyssa Milano.
    EASTER EGGS:
    1. Cosmo, the telepathic canine cosmonaut seen among the Collector's possessions and licking him at the end, actually commands Knowhere station in the comics!
    2. Bereet, the alien girl aboard the 'Milano', is a deep-dive reference to a Hulk story where a female alien by her name accompanied Hulk and recorded his adventures!
    3. The Power Stone contained in the Orb is the fourth Infinity Stone seen in the saga!
    CAMEO:
    1. Stan Lee appears as a Xandarian Lothario with funky shades flirting with a young woman while Rocket is seeking potential bounties with his scanner.
    END-CREDIT SCENES:
    1. A potted Baby Groot sways to the soundtrack while Drax polishes his blades. When Drax perceives the motion out of the corner of his eye, he turns and Baby Groot freezes in place until Drax turns away whereupon the potted twig resumes to boogie.
    2. Sitting morosely amid the ruins of his Collection, a bandaged Tivan sips a tropical drink while Cosmo sympathetically licks his face prompting Howard the Duck to remark how gross that is while sipping his own beverage from the shattered remains of his display case.
    The next chronological stop in the MCU are Episodes 1 - 10 of Season 2 of "Agents of SHIELD".
