Out of the major movies coming out, I find myself more excited about movies like Warcraft, Terminator 5, Jurassic World and Star Wars EP7, because I don't really know what to expect from any of them. The aura of mystery and not knowing makes me more excited for them. Don't get me wrong, Avengers 2 will probably be the bee's knees, but I know what to expect from Marvel, and I'm pretty calm about their movies. I'll probably be super hyped once a trailer drops, but at this point I'm more excited about the unknown rather than new Marvel movies, because I know what to expect, and I know what they will deliver.

I don't mind knowing what to expect from Marvel. It's like a cinematic hummer for me. You know it's gonna be awesome, but still have plenty of reasons to be excited. The others, could be like going to brown-town for the first time; might be awesome, but it might be shit - literally.

Yeah I know what you mean.

It's not necessarily bad that I know what to expect from Marvel, but I look at it more as a high risk/high reward kind of thing. Few of Marvel's movies have reached that level of quality where I hold them among the best movies. Avengers reached that level, so I'm obviously excited for a sequel. Most of their other properties fall under the "solid and great movie" category for me. Marvel might have more consistency than the other superhero studios at the moment, but it's not just about quantity. For every X-Men 3 you have a X-Men Days of Future Past. For every Amazing Spider-Man 2, there's Spider-Man 2. For every Man of Steel you have a Dark Knight.. so it's not just Marvel putting out the good superhero movies, even if they are the standard against which all others are measured.

Those other movies I listed could very well be disappointments. But they could also be something special, like Avengers was when it came out, or The Dark Knight before that.

Yep, I heard about that!

James Gunn said that this movie will have more Marvel comics characters (either on screen or referenced/innuendo) in it than any other Marvel film.

bosk1 · « **Reply #1516 on:** July 31, 2014, 09:54:19 AM »

Which one? Guardians?

Dimitrius · « **Reply #1517 on:** July 31, 2014, 09:55:19 AM »

Yes. James Gunn is the director for Guardians.

bosk1 · « **Reply #1518 on:** July 31, 2014, 10:53:00 AM »

Okay. But I am a bit skeptical that that claim is overstated, especially in light of the "either on screen or referenced/innuendo" comment. I mean, simply by casually mentioning "the Avengers," "S.H.I.E.L.D.," and Asgard, you would already have the entire Marvel on-screen universe "incorporated" into your file, and with the addition of the Guardians, viola! You instantly have "Marvel comics characters (either on screen or referenced/innuendo) in it than any other Marvel film."

Dimitrius · « **Reply #1519 on:** July 31, 2014, 10:59:24 AM »

I believe he meant characters NOT in the MCU already. Like that Howard the Duck picture.

Getting ready to see GOTG in a few minutes.

Just got back from the movie. Holy crap! Not the best Marvel film but definitely the funniest. Loved the post credits scene.

FlyingBIZKIT · « **Reply #1523 on:** July 31, 2014, 10:25:56 PM »

Yeah I heard this was really funny. I need to see it!

jingle.boy · « **Reply #1524 on:** August 01, 2014, 05:01:52 AM »

Will be seeing on Sunday likely with jingle.son

King Postwhore · « **Reply #1525 on:** August 01, 2014, 05:04:20 AM »

Seeing it on vacation at a drive in with the Queen!

hefdaddy42 · « **Reply #1526 on:** August 01, 2014, 05:09:40 AM »

It was just so...fun! Most entertaining movie I've seen in quite some time!

King Postwhore · « **Reply #1527 on:** August 01, 2014, 05:12:04 AM »

I saw the cast on Jimmy Kimmel this week and they were fun and having a blast. Worth checking out.

Zantera · « **Reply #1528 on:** August 01, 2014, 05:35:43 AM »

I'm seeing it tomorrow.

Dat. This'll be the first movie in a long while that I go to the theaters to see.

masterthes · « **Reply #1534 on:** August 02, 2014, 06:50:08 PM »

Such a fun, fun movie. Groot and Rocket are like the Han Solo/Chewbacca of the Marvel universe. I totally missed the Nathan Fillion cameo. Have to be on the lookout next time. Was a bit upset though no Zoe changing scene like hinted in the trailer, and while the Howard the Duck thing was cute, it wasn't worth sitting through 8 minutes of credits

MetalJunkie · « **Reply #1535 on:** August 02, 2014, 06:54:55 PM »

Just watched Winter Soldier. Damn, that was awesome. Loved the Pulp Fiction and WarGames references.

Zantera · « **Reply #1536 on:** August 02, 2014, 07:09:01 PM »

Guardians of the Galaxy was amazing. I'm not sure how much the lower expectations did (not knowing the property, not knowing what to expect), but it was probably the most funny Marvel-movie so far, and possibly the best directed one as well. I saw people say it was even better than Avengers, and after seeing it.. yeah, it might actually be just that. It's early days of course, but wow.

jingle.boy · « **Reply #1537 on:** August 02, 2014, 08:39:38 PM »

No chance it was better than Avengers - at least in my book. I give it an 8/10, and rate it on par with Thor 2. It had the same basic premise as Thor 2 - good guys have super power that could destroy the universe; bad guys want and get it; good guys use said power to beat the bad guy; super power is locked away for safe keeping.

I was really impressed with Bautista's acting. He played Drax incredibly well.

hefdaddy42 · « **Reply #1538 on:** August 03, 2014, 04:50:38 AM »

Oh, I thought it was much better than Thor - The Dark World.

The Avengers was a film that I literally waited my whole life for, and it delivered on all expectations, so I'm not sure that it's possible for another Marvel film to supplant it as number 1 overall in that group. Having said that, I think that The Winter Soldier was actually a better film, although it didn't contain that emotional impact of The Avengers for me.

Guardians of the Galaxy is, for me, the best of the bunch with the exception of those two. Just extremely entertaining, and it was 10 pounds of fun in a 5 pound bag.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #1539 on:** August 03, 2014, 05:15:42 AM »

Well, it's at the drive in and their playing The Winter Soldier which I saw already after it. May still stay. Seeing it on Tuesday night!
