Congratulations youtubers! you survived Comic Con this is going to be my
breakdown of the guardians of the galaxy to trailer they aired so probably the
most comic book thing in a weekend full of comic book stuff so all the movies
that Marvel brought to comic-con they're still working on Doctor Strange
is the only one that's pretty much done like they're probably finishing some
special effects for that but of all the movies that are still in production
guardians of the galaxy 2 is the furthest along so naturally they had the
most footage for that there were really like two different parts of footage that
he showed off so it wasn't like two trailers but there was a highlight reel
then there was a more traditional type of trailer just as a way to show you
where all the characters are and how how much crazier things have gotten it's
really turned into like a $200,000,000 Rick and Morty episode it's so amazing
you have absolutely no idea like think about the Captain America movies that
Captain America Civil War had a lot of comic book things in it had Spider Man
holding Captain America's shield talking about Empire Strikes Back that was like
the peak comic book moment this year for me next year guardians of the galaxy 2
is going to blow that away so here just to break down exactly what the footage
was we pick up with the Ravagers that's the group that yondu controlled in the
last film they have since revolted so like there
are a bunch of Ravagers that they brought to Comic Con so like they revolt
against yondu you see baby Groot and they have to organize a prison break and
it's all about baby Groot getting yondu his fin back so for those of you that
said that yondu in the first movie wasn't comic-book yondu enough they are
going full comic book in this movie like Michael Rooker came to comic-con in full
makeup with the fin on so this is kind of what it looks like it's kind of
plasticky looking it glows and it allows him to control his arrow select in the
last film he was whistling to control the arrow the fin itself just does that
in a much more visual way so there was this scene where baby Groot gets his fin
bit like steals it back from the Ravagers yon who uses it to take them
all down the Ravagers make jokes about baby Groot they put him in this tiny
like little adorable Ravagers uniform so you have like dancing baby Groot wearing
a tiny uniform he's super pissed about it but then his yondu starts killing all
these people baby Groot actually selects one ravager uses his plant powers to
like reach out and throw him off a balcony so one of the funniest parts of
the footage was watching baby Groot brutally murder a Ravager so why is he
still a baby you ask well you know I'm sure there's a lot of merchandising
reasons but they use it to their advantage like
as part of this Prison Break he can get in and out of really tiny spaces so this
is funny montage of him bringing back all these wrong items when he's looking
for yondu's Finn he comes back with a prosthetic eye in Rocket Raccoon is like
even though it's the wrong item it's not the Finn he grabs it and is like this is
going to be so funny he's going to wake up and not know what the hell happened so if
you wonder why yondu is part of the Guardians he's not part of the Ravagers
in the second film you can see how they've revolted and that drives him to
the Guardians so like you know here's this connection with Peter he's kind of
like Peter Quill's adopted father so yondu will just be traveling with the
Guardians for most of the film the Ravagers themselves are kind of an
antagonist and that theme continues so they revealed Elizabeth to Vicky's
character she's playing the kismet character she's like the leader of this
genetically perfect race so she hires the Guardians to save them from this
interdimensional beast but things go completely off the rails
so she winds up being something of an antagonist too we see Sylvester
Stallone's character that's right Sylvester Stallone is in the movie he's
one of the rat like he's wearing a Ravagers uniform but they didn't reveal
who he is so what I think is going to happen is is he'll be like a super deep
cut from the comics that'll make you scream in the movie theater without
necessarily tying him to future films like he's not going to be Adam warlock
or something like that it'll be like a Howard the Duck type Easter egg like oh
my god that's a huge character but like Howard the Duck wasn't super critical to
the plot of the movie he was just a really cool easter egg speaking of which
Adam warlock his cocoon was a big easter egg for the movie I'm going to talk about
Adam warlock and how he's kind of in the movie without actually physically being
in the movie we see the Guardians having a really funny argument about fighting
this interdimensional creature Peter quit like a big portal opens up in
the distance and Peter Quill's like Showtime assholes Peter and rocket are
yelling at each other and Peter calls him a stupid raccoon he gets really
offended in Peter's like sorry I meant trash Panda fingers crossed that they
released some merchandise with rocket racoon that's just labeled as trash
Panda but then then we get the big reveal of star wars father so just
careful for spoilers if you don't want to know about star Lords father because
it is a super deep cut from the comics so they're walking through a forest and
then this very Adam warlock II cocoon descends it looks like an egg in out
steps mantis and Kurt Russell wearing you know this you
form Peter Quill's like who the hell are you supposed to be and then Kurt
Russell's characters like I figured my rugged good looks we've made that
obvious my name is ego and I'm your dad Peter
all the Guardians crap their pants it gets really awkward but then they take
it right back by doing the math about how he could possibly be a living planet
and be Peters father he explains that he's a living planet but he made himself
a human body and then probably the funniest moment of the trailer Drax is
like wait you made yourself a human body did you make yourself and then
you know everybody starts throwing up in their mouths and then completely
unphased egos like yes tracks I've got a and Drax is like thank you so if
in 2016 peak comic book is spider-man in a Marvel movie holding Captain America
shield talking about Empire Strikes Back then next year the guardians talking
about the of a living planet will be peak comic book so just to tie it
back to Adam warlock so like a lot of people were like maybe Peter Quill's
fathers Adam warlock because he has the soul gem in the comics and Peter quill
would have to be part engine tin order to be able to hold an infinity gem so a
lot of people were like okay well they're just like a few people that that
could be so Adam warlock was just the biggest candidate so while it turns out
that ego is his father which is way better in my book it's a way deeper cut
from the comics I think visually you will see a lot of Adam warlock Easter
eggs in Kurt Russell's character so even though James Gunn changed a bunch of
stuff from the comics he found a really funny way to keep all that stuff in the
movie so they don't really explain the mechanics of how star Lord's father made
himself a human body how his powers work so I think that's going to tie into the
soul gem I just feel like it's so weird and there's so many big crazy thing like
interdimensional beasts that they have to stop in this movie that it demands
the presence of a soul gem which is why I think the time gem is what's going to
be showing up during Doctor Strange because even in the Doctor Strange
trailer the ancient one is like I have been searching all of time for so long
looking for you so the concept of time is very important to the Doctor Strange
movie but the Guardians movie is mostly about family relationships now yes on a
really simple level James Gunn said it's all about baby Groot and star-lords
father but really it's about family relationships so there's going to be a
lot of awkward family comedy like yondu's former family the Ravagers turn
on him so he seeks a new family in the Guardians Peter quill finds his
father you also meet this race of genetically perfect people that are a
bunch of assholes so thematically the movie is telling you
you know that it's all about the family that you choose for yourself and being
perfect is not important like you don't have to be perfect so the film will be
really easy to flexo matically it'll be really easy to follow you could take
your grandma to it even if she does absolutely no idea what comic books are
she would totally love it so that is part of the magic of James Gunn I feel
like he's one of the best comic book authors working in films today just
because he has such a deep understanding of the comics like he is a lifelong
comic book nerd but he also has a really strong vision and he's a writer so you
tend to find that the best comic book movies come from directors that also
write their films that also have a lifelong history with those characters
so James going to just one of those directors that make such awesome movies
that I like I don't use I don't even care what they're about like even if it
wasn't about comic books I would automatically say shut up and take my
money like another good example is Joss Whedon someone with a really strong
vision that writes all of his stuff and directs it but mark my words
next summer guardians of the galaxy 2 will be peak comic book there's a whole
bunch of really awesome comic book movies coming out next year like Wonder
Woman is going to be amazing gal gadot is going to be fantastic but guardians
of the galaxy 2 will be the most comic book of all comic book things next year
more fantastic than the of a Living Planet
I want a t-shirt of ego the Living Planet with text that reads my is
fantastic I would totally wear something like that around in public so let me
know what do you guys think about what you've heard about guardians of the
galaxy 2 so far like you've seen the look of the Ravagers and even though
James Gunn has said he's not releasing the footage you will probably see all
this stuff in November when Doctor Strange premieres they'll probably
attach the guardians of the galaxy trailer to that he was like yes I know
when the trailer is going to drop but I can't say yet like they can't reveal but
they typically attach a big trailers for future movies to other big Disney movies
so just expect to see a whole bunch of guardians of the galaxy stuff later this
year in November but giveaway time there's a new round of the giveaway
