James Gunn is a legend and a fantastic director.
Very true and I personally cannot wait to see what he and co ceo of DC studios Peter saffron have instore for the DCU franchise
@@ahmadmohammed4212 did you watch the movie
@@opman5193 yup
Lmao i see u everyway chase
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm glad James Gunn got whatever he wanted for Guardians 3, I'm assuming this is Disney's way of telling him that they're sorry for wrongfully firing him in 2018 after he had already finished the script. I'm going to miss him so much over at DC, but I'm so happy with what he gave us in the Guardians trilogy. Wishing you all the best, James Gunn.
They also probably want to open the door for Deadpool 3.
im hoping Superman Legacy tops Superman & Lois. i prefer a story that has more heart than dark material when it comes to writing and i think his script for Superman Legacy will do much better than Man of Steel. Bright Burn seemed like an experiment to see where the edgy fans are and it's something i dont want happening to superman. Injustice was just a moronic story for people who have yet to discover Kingdom Come
Garbage! Let’s just whatever out of guardians! What a chump!
@@thomaslao9832 Even Kingdom Come i think has been kinda done to death since so many comic stories were inspired by, or just plain ripped off from Kingdom Come in the years since. It's still a brilliant story though. In terms of movies I'm just tired of watching a Superman that talks about hope endlessly but doesn't embody or even show that he himself has any hope of his own.
That's my biggest problem with Snyder's Superman. It's all surface-level in the script, and it's directed by someone seemingly incapable of understanding Superman because he doesn't fit Ayn Rand or Joseph Campbell's ideas of what story should be. And instead of saying "hmm, this doesn't fit my way of thinking, but he's been around for like 70+ years, so maybe i need to expand my definition of story structure" It's like he tried his absolute best to remove elements of the character that clashed with his world view. Killing off fan-favorite characters because he thought it was "funny". And actively limiting every other story any filmmaker wants to tell within that universe, to the point where anything that doesn't look like Snyder's films, is immediately hated by his fans because "Whedon", even if he had nothing to do with the production.
I still can't get over some of the people moaning that the first Shazam was lighthearted and comedic because they wanted gritty edgy shit in a movie about a child that turns into an adult superhero when he says a magic word... Snyder also showed at every stage that he's embarrassed to be making a superman movie. I think he's a really talented filmmaker, (But remember when he said in an interview that he couldn't take any of the characters seriously when they had conversations while wearing their supersuits... Man, he was so wrong for Superman. Comic books are an absolutely insane and wacky form of story telling, even when they tell gritty stories. Filmmakers shouldn't be embarrassed by that, they should embrace the weirdness. Like S&L season 2 showing that Bizarro's earth is cube shaped. Or Gunn putting Starro the Conqueror in TSS. If you are embarrassed by it, and refuse to use the weirdness, you are effectively removing a major part of what makes the comics so damn fun. And you have lost before cameras even start rolling.
Superman and Lois isn't perfect, but it's still easily the best Superman has been outside of comics in a very long time. Too bad so many people disliked him in Supergirl and refuse to give the show a try. Sucks for them. Because it's brilliant (though season 2 has a few missteps. Still it's a lot better if you watch it all at once. It was kinda destroyed by all those damn breaks in the middle of the season.)
I will say this though regarding Snyder, if they were to announce that they are doing a new movie of The Mask, based on the original ultra-violent but bizarrely creative comic book series, Zack Snyder would be my absolute number one first pick for director. That's a character i think would really benefit from his style.
@@TheKillaShow whats the correlation
Thank you James Gunn. I still have GOTG comics from 1992 when I was 7 and nobody could have done them justice more then you. I’m gonna miss you at Marvel sir.

Shots fired on the Thor franchise
James Gunn is a legend ,and fantastic director love him the heart, and magic he brought to the Marvel franchise will be missed so excited to see what he has in store for DC.
Hearing James Gunn coming back for the lovely cast and wanting to finish Rockets story is everything. So glad we got Guardians 3.
This movie easily is the best in it's phase and makes guardians a top tier trilogy in the MCU
Guardians is one of the best trilogies in cinema. Period.
To be fair, there are only two movies in this phase so far, this movie and one other, so yeah.
I’d say it’s THE top tier mcu trilogy.
I mean there’s only 2 movies in this phase. Which I hope is a sign where the quality will keep going up
The best since Endgame for me, even better than Spidey NWH
He just confirmed what I already knew.GOTG3 was NOT made thinking about money or popularity. This movie was made with a hearth. I think we all can agree on that.
I really admire this guy for being and artist and trully care about giving a great story and characters above all.
Ngl everyone saying this is Marvel’s return to form it’s not.
James Gunn has always been in form, and now he’s leaving marvel.
So ngl even though I firmly believe marvel mainly has a better franchise, DC is definitely the one to look out for now.
He’s gonna nail dc comics.
Will miss James Gunn doing the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, but look forward to what he'll do for Superman Legacy. Some good notes from the interview, yeah you don't need every story to be saving the world or universe. Sometimes just saving one person you got the audience to care about is enough.
It's so good that Gunn did his own thing with the trilogy. He got out of the Marvel formula zone and kept things human. If people will look back at mcu 50 years from now they will still recognise Gaurdians of the Galaxy as a James Gunn movie instead of a Marvel movie and that's a good thing
After watching GOTG volume 3 I can now say James gunn is my favourite director ever DC is lucky to have him ❤
The beginning had me in tears but I had a damn good time
What a great end to the trilogy…
Good job JG 😎
You’re right , you should know that James Gunn told the wrap that Superman legacy won’t be affected by the ongoing writers guild of America strike which began last Tuesday because he finished writing the script for that film almost 2 weeks ago before writers strike
James Gunn did so well with the Guardians trilogy. Truly a masterpiece!
What I love about James Gunn movies is how they look ripped straight out of a comic book
Thanks James, for going back to finish rocket's story
Vol 3 is amazing and fresh. I got so emotional watching. Only two films MCU that makes me move, Endgame and this one.
I've been watching a lot of his interviews. Aside from GOTG now being my fav MCU trilogy, i've finally watched Peacemaker and The Suicide Squad. I have to say that he's one of my fav director now.
I love this director. He came back to tell Rocket's story and in his other movie it's the rats that saved the day. A genuine animal lover.
He didn’t write endgame
@@fatman9468 The Suicide Squad
@@fatman9468 it’s actually the repo man and the tow truck which saved the universe
Oh I’m stupid. Completely forgot about that movie tbh
Thank you, James Gunn! I cried a lot ❤
"I cried a lot" sung to the tune of Faith No More's We Care A Lot
Great interview!
James Gunn is a legend, the all time GOAT of the cbm.
Like he maintained and increased the quality over a trilogy. How many trilogies can make the same boast?
Matrix, Ironman, Dark Knight, so many trilogy trip in the final movie, but Gunn absolutely killed it.
I love the shirt James Gunn is wearing! He did so fantastic with this movie 👏
The BEST MCU MOVIE OF ALL TIME 🙌🏾💯🦝💔🎥 FREAKING MASTERPIECE JAMES!! Will Always love you and your creativity and charm and humility and love for this characters and their stories...
Better way to go is there not...Saving the Superhero Movie Genre single-handedly like an Absolute BEAST! And you say goodbye to Marvel with a PERFECT NOTE 📝💯🦝.
This Film changed my life, and i know it changed the lives of others and specially the Cast and crew.... *Love The All The All Of You..* ♥️
Agreed!!
Guardians 3 was SOOOOOOO GOOD. It absolutely broke my heart, in a good way, and I can't wait to see how he's going to spearhead the DCEU (with Peter Sarafan).
This makes me excited for the DCUs future. Disney should think twice, but they keep missing the mark. This man saved MCU and gave it another lifeline for Disney to gloat upon or destroy. GOTG is a unique franchise that really gave marvel justice in terms of its characters and world.
"Disney should think twice, but they keep missing the mark."
After firing Gunn, they thought twice and re-hired him.
@@stevenseufert2520 re-hired because of the backlash and not by thinking twice.
@@Red_Rebel which is of course thinking twice
@@Red_Rebel yes the backlash against Alex Jones and the far right and for disney listening to them. Thats why gunn was rehired they realised alex jones was a nasty sod and a sandy hook denier and grifter.
6:26 he’s going to be Pa Kent!!!
He worked this magic on this one it's the best one
Go watch this movie. The best MCU movie since No Way Home.
says a lot considering its one of the only other good movies since endgame
@@FunClockwork It’s not that good and the whole plot was dumb but it was a fun watch and they did the Spider-Men right
You thought it was better than wakanda forever?
@@ArmaniXperience wakanda forever was overrated as hell
Best movie since endgame
I freakin cried in this movie multiple times. James Gunn is truly a master of his craft. Jump ship for DC? I might....
2:22 perfectly sums up why the MCU has been crap lately.
Eternals - saved the planet.
No Way Home - saved the universe.
Doctor strange 2 - saved the universe.
Shang chi - saved the world.
Thor 4 - saved the universe.
Wakanda forever - saved the world.
Ant man 2 - saved the universe.
gotg 2 - saved Rocket and some kids.
The Avengers movies should be for world saving shit. Not solo movies.
Yeah, a lot of movies do in fact do that, but it in no way really helps describe why the MCU has been pretty bad. The MCU has been pretty bad because of bad writing, terrible CGI, and not being able to balance humor.
A good interview. Good interviewer.
If you make something you truly love others will feel that and love it too
2:51 really propels the plot forward other than some nonsense. Ouch. Fair.
I'm glad he finished it. So satisfying.
Amazing emotional film.
THANK YOU JAMES GUNN🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Disney really fumbled the bag when they fired him over old horrible jokes. He could made a small statement and moved on. Ugh if all that didn't happen who knows he might be still with Marvel at the moment handling Secret wars or started working on the NEW guardians line up.
Either way he was still leveling up while he was with Marvel.imagine what he can do with DC now.
The more good comic book movies the more it’s good for the genre living on forever so I’m grateful
Its funny that he already apologized for those horrible jokes way before the trolls dug them out
Disney messed up big time
He already made statements, already apologized, but that wasn't enough for the internet hate machine. As we can see with this movie out: absolutely NO ONE cares about all that now. It was a insanely small vocal minority that should have been ignored.
Instead, Disney spit in the face of a man and his cast that quite literally changed how MCU movies were being made, then opened themselves up to have that creative force be taken by their competitor. For what? Internet whiners? They will regret this for a long time.
Wish Elon Musk was the CEO of Twitter on that time. Timelines would have avoided and cosmic universe on the MCU by Gunn would still be the next phase. Gunn also finished the Gotg3 script before the firing and has Silver Silver cameo at the end. Now it is different because he got fired and cosmic universe IS gone, replaced by multiverse saga. Sad.
Lylla, floor, teefs… 😭😭😭
I love this interviewer, comes across so natural at it
I don't get the signifcnae of him (rocket) seeing yondus arrow at the end of volume 2?
I'm gonna miss Rocket... dammit.
Hmmm. I wonder which Spiderman James Gunn is talking about when it comes to characters learning the same lesson in each movie?
Bro is right it shouldn’t always be about “saving the world” or “saving the universe” that’s why these superhero films are getting so predictable and boring
Best trilogy of marvel. Bettter than spider man 3
Honestly disney deserves to lose Gunn. Hope he does well with the DCU
Saving an a loved individual>>> universe
Been a huge fan of Gunn since Dawn of the Dead
best GOTG movie.... seriously!!
blurp? why force something like this ?
This movie was amazing
Christ that movie was amazing
I thought James Gunn was going to say - I casted Will Poulter because it was about time he got paid LMAO
James Gunn, wow! You made an animal cruelty extravaganza. There were young kids at the theater Saturday (5/13) when I saw your work. I fell sorry for any who have a pet rabbit.
Gunn Cinematic Universe
alright. that answer about "creativity" was sober.
Bradley for Booster Gold maybe??
6:25 Bradley Cooper in James Gunn's next DC projects confirmed???
Awesome movie, no question !
5:19 but this makes literally no sense,
GotG2 is set inside the mcu in 2014,
Then we have the blip,
The 5 years that follow,
The time with Thor until T4,
The holiday special is set in December 2025 inside the mcu,
GotG3 is set sometime after, so 2026 inside mcu.
=
12 (!) years that Adam been stuck in the cocoon until gotg3.
Brain and Body grow together, doh he’s taken out „a little too early“ his body is grown as well as his powers, which he knows to use immediately but not his mind ? 😂
Then he is able to directly find Rocket and use his powers, but his mind is underdeveloped?
And the HIGH evolutionary and the PERFECT sovereign CANT come up with something to upgrade him ?
(Or control him at least, like the hundreds of space ships piloted per vr in gotg2 ?)
Like I said, with all love, that’s lazy writing, he made Adam Warlock an op baby that had more years inside the cocoon than any human baby would need inside a human womb, pretty high evo 😂
and that from a race like the sovereign (that evolved from giving birth to pods because its more efficient and faster) and that can control via vr,
Or that could have just sat down with HE and figure out an upgrade lol
Well those questions have been either inferred or answered in movies already.
- Brain and body don't grow together. We saw in the movie High Evolutionary was able to evolve the body much faster than the brain. Brain takes a while to mature and fully develop connections. Also, the queen mother obviously taught Adam his powers that was pretty obvious from the conversation between HE and the Queen.
- High Evolutionary was ever so slowly descending into madness in pursuit of creative intelligence since Rocket escaped. This led to his impatience with pulling Adam out of cocoon too early to find Rocket instead of letting him develop fully. This was made clear by the Sovereign queen mother.
- It was also made clear that beyond a certain point of growth, once the organism is out of the "cocoon of development" there's no way to reprogram them. Thats why he used incinerate "failed" experiments rather than trying to find a solution. In Adam's case, because of time, neither "upgrade" nor making another were viable options.
@@dybiosol lol dude, nice try 😂
- HIGH evolutionary and the PERFECT sovereign grew Adam in a cocoon (in gotg2 it’s mentioned the sovereign evolved (lol when being made) from giving to birth to using pods) because it’s faster and more efficient than human breeding would
I had yesterday my third time in cinema, she does not say one thing than they have taken him out too early, funny after 12 years inside that thing (GotG2 is 2014 inside mcu, GotG3 is 2026)
- again, this Is like the first part you mentioned, just worded differently (lol), makes no sense at all since HE wanted Rocket back cause he missed the mind of Rocket for his experiments, all the time until the events of gotg3 he was creating and doing stuff, seen with Phyla that is in this young age already able to think more mature than Adam, plus using her powers as well.
(Script-wise it just doesn’t make sense after 12 years inside a fast and efficient cocoon)
- incarceration because of failure for A WHOLE PLANET doesn’t mean he can’t find a solution with his „perfect“ sovereign for ONE BEING (especially since sovereign used the VR like approach before, gotg2)
Plus lol, it’s been so much time since rockets escape, if needed he could’ve waited since they’ve must noticed that Adam isn’t fully evolved when they released him (what they nit even show in the movie, Adam just pops through the window at Rocket in gotg3)
He looks like Kraglins brother. Jk of course
I am down if James taking GotG gangs to DC..
my take from this is bradley cooper will have a role in DC.
Top tier movie trilogy
Bruh his freaking shirt with the names on it xD
Was Gamora originally pegged to be sacrificed from the beginning?
I think Peter was originally going to be pegged from the beginning.
@@Nope2479 what’s with all the pegging
@@BrodyLehnertz I guess folks like taking the exit door inside.
Well the VFX Guys creating the wonderful Creature Not him but He is writing them very Well
VFX does create Rocket... with the directors directing.
Disney REALLY messed up. Ah well, time for them to push out some more Taika Watitty movies 🤡
Shrek dies
Snyder Fans actually tried to cancel this guy?
So many times. Granted, I love Zack Snyder as a director, but some of the toxic trolls threatening to fire James Gunn make me feel ashamed to be a fan. I love what Gunn accomplished with The Suicide Squad, Peacemaker and of course, the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy; and I can't wait to see what he does with Superman!
@@halloweenfriday same here, let's not forget in Guardians 2 when Peter and Ego fought it does have some resemblance to two Kryptonians fighting while flying so I have no doubt, in Gunn we trust
rocket and peter quill die
He reminds me of a male Ellen DeGeneres....

Grace Randolph rocks! James Gunn
And yet , Grace Randolph is liberal liar because she said that the super Mario bros movie was unlikely to join a billion dollar movie club
@@ahmadmohammed4212 did you watch that movie? did you like it? "Liar" is a strong word for an opinion, and "liberal" not sure what that means- as if being liberal is a slur. BTW both Grace and James are huge advocates for the gay community. Grace was 100% accurate about Henry Cavil not returning as Superman- when the majority had it wrong .
@@ahmadmohammed4212 She isn't a liar, she just doesn't know anything about Mario. And she's good at putting her foot in her mouth. Stop watching bottom-of-the-barrel, neckbeard conservative content on RUclips, it rots your brain. 😂
@@ahmadmohammed4212 so a prediction that turns out to be false is considered a lie to you? Ok Ahamd.
let be real.....gun got the first disney mcu FUCK because deadpool 3 is happening and the fucks will fly within in the first 60 seconds of that movie and so Gun wanted to steal a bit of Ryans thunder.....
Jack Frost wants his hair back. Ask Chris Pine and Jesus Christ if you’re confused. In Jesus Christs name we pray amen.
Shame the third film isn't that good.
