Fun fact: When Peter almost drops the orb and catches it, apparently he really did fumble it and stayed in character, so they used that take. Very Quill-like. 😂
I saw that scene and was like "That was 100% an outtake they kept in xD"
Fun facts can be made up. 👍🏼

Alex is really right about the movie being an extremely ballsy move by the Marvel execs. I remember before this movie came out in theaters, I thought, "Well, this'll be the first bomb. There's no way I'm going to like a movie with a talking racoon and tree." Walked out of the movie admitting I was wrong. They did SUCH a good job with Guardians.
Completely agree! Brilliant movie!
A LOT of us felt that exact way. My wife and I said the exact same thing before and after the movie :)
for me it took way more than a couple rewatches but yeah
I didn't go see this in the theater, thinking a talking racoon and a walking talking tree. Not for me.I then bought the Blu-ray I was wrong
Rocket is my favorite character, love Groot too, Needless to say now love the Guardians.
Same. I looked up the comic and thought it looked cringe and this was fail. Turned out amazing and their best film at the time.
As an explanation: This soldier/guard or whatever he is, his wife and child were on the bridge during the attack. So he's lucky they survived and he got home safe too.
And that duck at the end sipping a cocktail is Howard the Duck, another MCU/comic character from Marvel.
If I recall correctly they were even saved from a falling ship by the guardians or Yondu by them blowing said ship up. So he´s grateful even more :)
And the dog is Cosmo the Soviet dog that was sent to space.
@@paigebarger5494 I thought it was a dog from "Space Buddies" hence the dog being a Labrador.....nope, it's Comso lol.
@@hitmixhyepock9405 😆 🤣 😂 😹
It might have even been Rocket who personally saved them.
When Groot says, "We are Groot." It's literally Vin Diesel saying, "We are Family." Lol
Vin Diesel/Dom: "It's all about family, Brian."
This is one of the silliest movies in the MCU, and also one of the most emotional.
I tear up every time I hear the walking tree say 'We are Groot', and that is quite the accomplishment lol
They did a magnificent job of pairing incredibly humor, a kickass soundtrack and really deep emotions.
Just reading this comment takes me back to that scene and makes it hard to breath.
This and antman bring way more comedy
Right?! Fucking broke my heart!
The people that laugh about the VA getting paid do much to voice Groot are the people who didn't watch the movie.
Guardians was such a turning point for the franchise for me. You're right in the middle of the start of where it truly starts getting good
Yes it's getting super connecting from now on ☺️
For me, winter soldier was that turning point but this was just a reinforcement of that
All of it is good
“Pelvic sorcery” is one of my favorite terms from any movie. All the characters in this movie are perfection… casting, costume design and execution… absolutely amazing. The soundtrack sets this movie apart from others. It’s so fantastic.
Completely agree Melanie! So nice to see you in the comments 🤘🏼
I believe that DC's Suicide Squad was nearly ready for release at this time. Due to the success of Guardians, DC went back in the added all these pop songs to SS to glom onto Marvel's magic touch. Note, it didn't help the movie at all; total mess.
I hear Poet* sorcery but idk i could be wrong.
@@BertonMelchit’s definitely pelvic
Welcome to the cosmic side of the MCU, Marvel took a huge gamble with James Gunn's bottom of the barrel hero choice. While I knew of the Guardians of the Galaxy in 2010, a big majority had no idea who they were. James Gunn brought the GotG to the top, he was given free control of everything. The studio did ask him to put in Thanos, but that's all the meddling they did. Now, onto Age of Ultron.
I'm pretty sure the only reason I knew who the Guardians were was because of them showing up in Earth's Mightiest Heroes
I discovered them from the Earth Mightest Heroes aswell, my dad knew the 1969 team lead by Starhawk which we see in Vol 2 film
"Now onto Age of Ultron."
So we go from a movie with next to no meddling to the movie with all of the meddling.
I loved the 90s run (homaged at the end of Vol 2 with Stakar reassembling them) but had no knowledge of this version. So I knew the vibe but not the characters and was still like "wow, if this goes over they'll be practically unstoppable on what they can try and adapt."
@@axelmok4_channel391 they had a run in the 90s, too. Set in the distant future with the initial arc revolving around the search for Caps shield. Also where Vol 2 got Taserface.
In the comics, Yondu was part of the original lineup of the Guardians. There's been about seven iterations of the team.

@@levipeterken4020 - Whoops, I think you are correct, sorry my bad.
"Phase 2 is almost over. Where the hellbdid all the time go?"
Trust me... as someone who has seen every marvel movie excluding black widow, eternals, and the hulk movies in theaters... I think to myself... there's no fuckin way iron man came out 14 years ago...
Also the "big ass dude" (Dave Bautista) is Drax the Destroyer. Which is also the name of my pug lol
Fucking crazy!
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault Look up some of Dave Bautista's MMA fights. Dude is impressive :)
Idk about y’all but Michael Rooker did a fantastic job in this movie. Such a hilarious actor
Oh, Part II is so much better for Yondu.
Everything is perfect about this movie!
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault Michael Rooker was Merle in The Walking Dead in case you hadn’t sorted that out. Great characters in both!
@@kbaylor123 I'm old so I also remember Rooker playing the love interest's dad in Mallrats.
"Would you like a chocolate covered pretzel?"
@@andypickle1584 Rooker was so good in Days Of Thunder
The opening scene of this movie has me sobbing every single time i watch it. It’s so well done.
Gosh I know right?
I watched this first when my Mom was in her last weeks with cancer. It absolutely eviscerated me. I had to walk away and come back (I'd missed in theaters, so I was lucky to have friends who patiently waited and let me collect myself. I still associate this movie with those times. I waited to show it to my Dad (who was catching up on Marvel too) because I knew he needed time. They were high school sweethearts and was right by her side until the end. I missed being there by less than ten minutes. I'm really glad the movie doesn't dwell on that aspect too much, otherwise I'd never be able to rewatch it.
I also love his reticence to open that last present to him. I still have cards (ones we found after her death) and even a few presents she had misplaced, that I haven't opened. They're some of the last "new" things from her I'll ever experience. Once they're gone, all I have is memories, nothing new ever again. It's another note of finality in a very final situation and confronting that is really hard.
@@AmaraJordanMusic My heart goes out to y'all. I can't even imagine the heartbreak. My brother passed in January of 2021 and not a day goes by I don't think of him, like you with your mom. He loved the Marvel movies and I'm glad we were both comic book fans from way back when, so seeing all these characters come to life on screen was special for us. We always went to see the movies together. It's definitely not the same now, but I'm glad I have all those memories. All my best to you and your Dad.

@@damon6126 Thanks, Damon, I appreciate your kindness. ☺️ I’m sorry to hear you’ve also recently experienced the loss of a family member. It really just can’t be the same ever again. But any time I watch a movie I know mom would have loved, I mentally save a place for her and I knew her so well I can just imagine exactly what she would say, how she’d react. It’s not the same as having her here, but it’s something. They really do live on through us, and it’s just up to us to live up to their legacy. Keep enjoying the movies, and your brother metaphorically by your side. ❤️
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault - You think it's heart crushing when quills mother dies of Cancer, wait until the other shoe drops near the end of Guardians of the Galaxy 2: - (No Spoilers) - but whew... be sitting down is all I'll say.
I subscribed to your channel about four days ago and love your enthusiasm and energy. It's a big plus to me that you're not afraid to "use bad words" -- you speak and think the way I do so I relate bigtime. Gotta thank you for being you. It's been very enjoyable so far -- keep it up!
Welcome to the channel Michael! Stoked you’re here brother!
Things are about to start really connecting now leading up to Phase 3 (which I PROMISE will blow your mind)! So excited for you
Fuck I can’t wait!!
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault I'm so excited to see you watch them!! lol
The thing in the ending credits, that you didn't understand, was "The Collector" who apparently survived the Infinity Stone explosion, being talked to by one of the "trophies" in his collection. Howard the Duck. ... And a bit of trivia, The Howard the Duck movie was the first live action Marvel movie. It was a flop. But it was the first non-animated Marvel movie. (1986)
thanks for the info!
Actually, it wasn't a flop - it made a good profit in the theaters. It was just mocked a lot :-).
@@bvanb2011 according to Wikipedia, it cost somewhere between $30 - $37 million to produce. It then grossed US$16,295,774 in the United States and US$21,667,000 worldwide for a total of US$37,962,774. Costing $30-$37 million, and grossing $38 million at the box office is not a "good profit". The film makers don't get the gross amount, just a portion of it. So it lost a good amount of money for the studio. It made additional money later from VHS and TV, but it was considered a financial failure at the box office, as well as a critical failure (film critics hated it). It became a cult classic, but that's a separate thing, and happens after those other things are judged.
Even though after you made it this far you’re still not half way you still got a long way to go but a long journey of fun and I’m excited!
Excellent reaction! Guardians was unlike anything else I had seen before. A space movie with late 70s/early 80's soft rock soundtrack? Brilliant. Can't wait for you to watch Age of Ultron and REALLy can't wait for you to meet the badassery that is Wanda ✨
Thanks Scott! Super stoked you stopped by to check out the video!
Michael Rooker, who plays Yondu, has been in a bunch of stuff. I know he was in The Walking Dead, but I recognized him from Mallrats. The arrow thing is a version of his weapon in the comics, where he had a bow and arrow and could control the arrows by whistling. But here they got rid of the bow and just used the arrows
Would you like a chocolate covered pretzel? 🤣
He's also great fun in _Guardians_ director James Gunn's DC adventure, _The Suicide Squad._ (NO SPOILERS PLEASE.) I'm sure I'm not alone in recommending that movie as a very brief detour from the MCU; it's not necessary to watch 2016's _Suicide Squad_ first.
I recognized him from an episode of Stargate SG1
One of my favorite MCU movies, hands down. The chemistry of the guardians as a group is unmatched. Not too sure if you're big into video games, but the Guardians of the Galaxy game is absolutely phenomenal as well. Hilarious, tear jerking, and fun to play. I've never played a game with so much dialogue before in my life, but the guardians seriously *do not shut up* and I love it so much. They handled it with care.
Also fun fact. You don’t freeze in space. You actually boil!
Probably doesn’t feel too good
I'm sure
Man I’m so glad you’re doing these reactions!! You’re the shit dude!
I appreciate the love and support! ❤️
Ah man, you have such a journey still you'll love it! Also, to explain the significance of John c Riley's nova corp character and the wife and daughter. When the Necro whatever's started crashing into the nova surface, one ship was about to directly hit his wife and daughter. The woman who held her child to protect her when a ravager ship came in and blew it up before it hit the surface. A little later John c Riley's character says to starlord "my wife and daughter wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you." And at the end that's where they hugged. I can't wait to see more man! Been loving your dive into the mcu for the first time.
I laughed when you said that winter soldier was your fave, because. MY MAN!!! It get better to the point, especially the way your binging them. Your gonna feel crazy by the end 😂
I just want to watch them all right now!!!!
I wonder if Alex even knew that Groot was voiced by Vin Diesel, Rocket was voiced by Bradley Cooper, and that Drax the Destroyer was Dave Bautista from the WWE. He seemed oblivious to these facts.
@Latest Obsession Clarity is a necessity with people suffering from OCD.
@Latest Obsession Your right... my family suffers while I live with it.
"Where's his dad?!" Oh, boy, you'll find out. *Evil laugh* you'll find out!!
Is it Darth Vader? 😄
I lost it when you said "aaaa Unagi". Another Friends fan, I love it!
You literally just made my 4th, by reacting to this movie and so happy you enjoyed. The Guardians movies are so much fun and heartfelt. Everytime I see that mouthful of pearly whites of yours, I know you’re enjoying yourself. Happy 4th buddy!!
Happy 4th right back at ya! Thanks for stopping by! ❤️🤘🏼
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault -You’re very welcome and thank you. So excited looking forward to your next Marvel movie. All reactions in between too of course. Lol
there was a movie that was in the '80s called Howard the duck, look that up and you might understand the ending after credits scene
gotchu thanks for that!
Whenever Thanos defeats a planet, he kills half the population and adopts an orphan.
The MCU is pretty awesome that way. After the second Thor, I'm pretty sure every movie builds and seems better than the last, until the Infinity War/Endgame capstone. It's the reason Endgame topped the charts. Stan Lee's Magnum Opus.
"Do we care too much if that blue dude dies" LMFAO
I can honestly say, up to Endgame I enjoyed all but 4 of the Marvel movies. Those were Age of Ultron, Black Panther, Captain Marvel and Iron Man 3. (I'm ready for the shitstorm, guys). And I'm really fond of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Anyhow, nice watching your goosebumps, man :)
Loving the series man! You’ll be caught up to the rest of us before you know it.
Btw, when you get to the Disney+ shows, just keep doing what you’re doing and watch them along with the movies in release order.
A couple fun tidbits about this movie: 1. In the scene with The Collector, Chris Pratt accidentally dropped the orb but they decided to use that shot cuz it was funny. 2. James Gunn hid secret messages within all the location text in this movie and it has yet to be completely solved (Gunn confirmed New Rockstars decoded about 3/4 of it). 3. Drax (the character with the dead wife and daughter) is played by former WWE wrestler Batista, Gamora (the green girl) is played by Zoe Saldana who was well known for being the alien girl from Avatar so there’s a bit of a theme going on there 😅 Rocket is voiced by Bradley Cooper and nonhumans not knowing that he’s a raccoon and his obsession with prosthetics are running gags so look out for them. Finally, Groot was voiced by Vin Diesel, which is just funny in and of itself
Hehehe I love the “ahh unagi” reference. To that I say “aaahh salmon spring roll”
Only Marvel can make a talking CGI tree saying “we are Groot” emotional and touching
Been waiting for this one....Alex is gonna cry!!!!!!
I'm from Corpus Christi, TX and I really appreciated you paying homage to Selena with the T-shirt... peace ✌️🕊️✌️
much love Joe!
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault Awesome, Bro...just got home from working at Goodwill donations station from 8:30a.m. to 8p.m...have a great Halloween 🎃🖤🎃...
The Collector is one of the oldest living beings in the universe. Just- fyi. ✌️
I had a really crappy day. Your reaction made it a little better. So thank you for that. You've got some wonderful movie experiences still ahead of you. I hope you'll consider some two-part reactions for some of the bigger ones, because it's hard to fit all the good stuff into about 30 minutes.
understood thanks for that! hope you've been better David
genuinely one of the most bangin soundtracks in a movie that's out there. just classic hits left and right, every one of em is a bop
Love this movie! Chris Pratt is actually from my home town. Virginia, Minnesota 🙌🏻
that's so cool!
Iron Man was popular but far from a “big” name. The truly big characters, Spidey, X-Men, Fantastic Four, even Hulk, we’re licensed to other studios. Marvel really didn’t have another to use. The big risk was casting RDJ.
Guardians of the Galaxy was a return to risky moves that worked out so well with Iron Man. I wish they still believed in taking risks.
I mean, I’m not saying that every marvel film/tv as of late doesn’t have common aspects that would eventually become their go-to formula. However, I also don’t think you can say that they don’t still believe in taking risks, when they have been wildly varying in tone, theme, and are using lesser-known-and-beloved characters like she-hulk, moon knight, Ms. Marvel. etc., and are putting them in the spotlight. Wandavision and Loki were using established and popular characters but the format they used in presenting those shows definitely took risk, as they were very different then most other marvel media. Eternals, M.O.M. and Love and Thunder, regardless of our personal opinions on the quality of said films, did take risks in trying to do something different and adding different elements that weren’t really commonplace in the majority of the MCU franchise. Again, this is not a critique of the quality of those varying media, that is another topic, I just don’t think it’s really fair criticism to say that they don’t try to take risks anymore.
Thanks for your reaction, even though I have seen all these movies multiple times over the years I am looking forward to each of your reactions, to revisit them again 🙂
keep watching haha
"Do we really care if that blue guy dies?" Yes. Yes, we do.
Don’t get confused going forward, THIS Groot did die. The baby that is growing back is his son, it’s not the same Groot and a lot of people doesn’t even know that. This Groot was Rocket best friend but the new one is like his adoptive son.
‘Spoiler alert for Infinity War if you haven’t seen it yet!’
The directors even confirmed that when teenage Groot was dying he said ‘dad’ to Rocket.
32:35 Those are the pink aliens that Rocket saved on the bridge and that’s why he told the Guardians of the Galaxy “You saved my family”, there’s a lot of details that gets overlooked in this movie.
@Latest Obsession He doesn’t have the same memories, James Gunn confirmed both arguments that fans had back then. The first one being that baby/teen Groot is a different Groot and that he doesn’t have the same memories. The MCU a lot of the times doesn’t follow the comics and with Groot they change it, so they are two completely different characters.
@Latest Obsession Dude, I even look it up right now and in May 6, 2017 he said that Baby Groot does not have Groot‘s memories.
My BFF says that I am Rocket (I've had so many surgeries and wounds that my torso is hard to look at and I'm good in a fight), my husband is Groot (a giant full of emotions), and out son is Drax (crazy strong, gleefully inappropriate, and is extremely literal).
I am fine with that assessment.
The pink lady and her daughter were saved by Rocket on the bridge during the attack on the city. She is married to John C. Reilly's character.
Enjoyed most Marvel films first time...even more fun watching again here.
thank you for tuning in!
If you liked the soundtrack of this movie, you should definitely check out The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker (neither of them are mcu so no spoilers!)
All of these are James Gunn's projects btw and he has a sick music taste!
"You said it yourself, b*tch!!!! We're the GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY."

It’s crazy watching this after watching GOTG3. I can’t wait for that reaction
Sooo... after watching this reaction, I'm assuming you've never seen the movie Footloose. Add it to the list!
thanks for watching and the suggestion!
I love watching these movies with you dude! I don't get out much and it's a lot of fun watching someone else experience all the joy.
that's so cool love you!
Honestly I'm so excited to see you watch Infinity war and Endgame ☺️👍
uppp!
The significance of the Nova officer's wife and daughter at the end is that during the Ronan attack, they were on the bridge and were saved from a falling/attacking ship by Rocket (at 27:29)
also if peter didn't take gamora's hand i think something far darker could have risen that day
You eating while talking, scratching your nose and Groot in the back round saying I'm Groot, was one of the funniest thing I have ever seen 🤣🤣🤣
The Duck dude at the end is from the bad movie "Howard the Duck." The main bad guy was the main character from a weird TV series called "Pushing Daisies," The blue dude was in "The Walking Dead"
The Ronin actor also played in the Hobbit as the King of the Woodland elves.
The final post-credit scene features Howard the Duck, an obscure Marvel character from the 1970s who has a cult following. In the mid-80s, there was an historically awful Howard the Duck movie, so this is a re-introduction to the character and a seriously deep cut easter egg.
Some more trivia: Howard The Duck in Guardians of the Galaxy was voiced by Seth Green
"My Cousin Vinny" is a MUST for you!!
This is one of my favorite movies of all time!
Also when you said "Do we care if this blue dude (Yondu) dies?" ....yes. 😭
it's very good!
@Alex Hefner
Aye, Alex! Regarding the different ethnicities on this planet...No different than Earth, imo...or NYC. A peaceful planet where different species have chosen to settle. A more realistic take, wouldn’t you agree? Like the States, there’s space travel, so different species might choose to come here for better opportunities...better schools 😸
Just like many countries USED to view the US. Now, we’ve become a racist, theocratic joke, smfh...
Phenomenal reaction though. I much prefer these to the political heads that you’ve started pushing.
thank you so much!
Watching this now after watching GOTG 3…. Man do Rocket’s lines hit different
You're spot on with marvel taking a risk on g.o.t.g. they weren't popular comics but marvel knocked it out of the park with them. Now we have stuff going on with the avengers on earth and across the galaxy and we start to see Thanos more. This one also gives us more info on the infinity stones as well. Love the reaction man! Happy 4th!
When Peter dropped the orb, he just went with it, it was an accident. And they left it in.
Ι really really love the Guardians of the Galaxy... The most entairtening MCU movie in every aspect
it's very good!
I cannot wait for you to see End Game! Your reaction to that is gonna be epic!
yep it's up!
I’ll be honest in that I’d never heard of GOTG before it came out in the cinema and I thought it was gonna blow and it blew my mind
it's good!
Lets fuckin gooooo!!!!
lets go!
I'm gonna tell you what is what cuz everyone else has. I'm just glad you're going on this journey. I'll be tuned in every Monday because even though I know these movies by heart, watching you see them makes me happy.
The soundtracks to this movie and the second are the perfect song choices. What I love is this team hasn't had much of a history in the comics. To make it a movie was the right choice for the studio. The casting of these characters was done perfectly. Got to set up a sequel. That duck was Howard the Duck.
Ain't it amazing how you get introduced to some new and pretty quirky characters that seem like they're a B-level heroes, yet it's so funny, heartwarming and it just works! (cue Todd howard memes)
Michael Rooker who plays Yondu has been in pretty much every James Gunn movie, there is joke that Gunn just makes movies to give Rooker work. The end credit scene was just more Gaurdians content. The dog Cosmo is part of one of the Gaurdians teams in the comics. And also Howard the Duck is one of Marvel's comic characters.
Cool reaction. The second and third GotG movies aren't as stellar as the first one, but still, the trilogy is the best thing that happened to the MCU next to the first Avengers, the first Iron Man, and The Winter Soldier.
13:23 "A little bit more comedy-based than a lot of the other Marvel movies" => Yup. Which means that the GotG never fuck up ruining a dramatic scene with a contractual joke, with forced humor, like in most Marvel movies. It's a comedy, written by a dude who knows how to write them. And drama, as we'll see later on. The guardians are the characters I've ended up being the most attached to in the entire MCU.
18:32 "Yeah kick that bitch down!!!" => Aaaaand we're ALL glad she didn't.
Love your reactions!!! Also just a lil bit of suggestion, You should watch two Marvel Movies for a week, I think that people would enjoy it twice because they can watch some of their favorite Marvel Movies with your reaction now. And it also speeds up your journey because I'm gonna be honest, you're not halfway there still LOL
i love you
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault Yay! also nevermind too, You already finished Endgame... And I'm also excited for you to react to Spider-Man: No Way Home! I'm waiting for it 🙏🏻
Eyyy, Great Reaction Man! Thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm excited for the next one!
thank you!
it's older than that saying
"in vino veritas" "in truth lies wine"
but yes, drunk words are sober thoughts
"Do we care about if the blue guy dies?" You'll reap what you sow.
This could go on either channel but you should check out Metal: A Headbanger's Journey
thanks for the suggestion Michael
I was hesitant at first when this movie came out, but I loved James Gunns other movies so I was like "if anyone can take on such a ridiculous group of characters it'd be him" and of course he did succeed the Guardians movies are great, controversially I might actually like the 2nd one even more.
GALAXY QUEST would be a groove.
and i don't like how ronan kills thanos speaker i liked that guy
great reaction, love this film me, u have the second one to watch yet :) cnt wait for rest of the marvel films :)

Howard The Duck at the end, there was a Howard movie in the 80s, its a cult classic now but really bad, I mean, I like that film but it's pretty awful haha, but Howard is Marvel hence the cameo...
I love that Vin Diesel was cast as Groot
You just make me smile, thanks for sharing your MCU journey ❤️❤️❤️
This hits differently after seeing vol 3 😢
Howard the duck and the dog is known as cosmo was the end credit thing. They're awesome and a long story.
🤣 “What in the Stranger Things?” When I watched Stranger Things I thought “What in the Nebula?”
You always give me something to look forward to on Mondays! Thanks Alex.
no thank you!
I know that others have explained that the last scene is Howard the Duck, but the "joke" here is actually pretty complicated.
Put simply, Steve Gerber created the character in 1973 during his stint on Adventures Into Fear, but was eventually replaced due to a failure to meet deadlines. In 1980 Gerber sued Marvel stating that he held exclusive rights to the character. This was the first big legal case about creator's rights vs. work for hire in comics.
Although that case was settled in 1982, the failed 1986 film created new legal issues with Lucasfilm now holding the film rights to the character. When Disney bought Lucasfilm, Marvel finally got the character back.
So the end credits scene is basically a giant F-You to 30 years of copyright battles over a fairly minor character.
Next to Winter Solider this is my favorite Marvel movie. I knew nothing of these characters and was hooked from the time he got on the planet and started dancing. Never underestimate a fantastic sound track.
The first 5 minutes of this movie are like: Is this the right movie? What am I watching?

I purchased the soundtrack when it came out. Every track a classic and many memories growing up to them with my parents. When my son was born, I would play it for him constantly. Just recently, my Mother passed from cancer. The opening scene hits close to home more than ever before, except I held my Mothers hand every moment I could.
Great reaction again. In my opinion, once this movie came out, the MCU movies just got better and better and better.
thank you for that!
Is Alex channelling George McFly when he laughs?
I knew you'd love this one, Alex. Someone may have already done so, but I'll tell you about the last two characters you met. Cosmo the dog was part of the Guardians in the books, and the Duck is named Howard. He also has his own books, which are patently weird, and his own movie which is cheesy as all heck and profoundly strange, but really is a good time.
Happy Independence Day all! Be careful not to blow yourselves up. Let's get through this one with all of our digits, shall we?
I had no idea about Howard! So happy you’re getting enjoyment out of these videos!
@@alexhefnerstvmovievault I certainly am.
Good reaction, just stick to watching them in the order in which they came out.
exactly!
With other studios all holding the licenses for Fantastic Four, X-Men, and Spider-Man, Marvel Studios didn't have ANY of their A-list characters to work with when they started the MCU.
RDJ having enough charm to power a small city made Iron Man a big deal for the first time in years, and everything else started falling into place, but once The Avengers' roster was filled out, they were basically working with leftovers, and they managed to make Guardians of The Galaxy into a surprise hit.
Too bad they don't seem to have anything left in the tank but ideology, lectures, and condemnation for the people who pay the bills.
thanks for that perspective
There are Marvel movies out there that do not belong to the MCU. Some are referenced, like Howard the Duck (1986) who we see at the end credits. Terrible movie, hilarious comic books.
GOTG was a risk for Marvel to do as there was controversy using characters unknown to most except Marvel fans. It helps introduce the space side of Marvel lore. Success of this movie proves that if you have a great story, nothing else really mattered. Believe it or not, the movie Iron Man (2008) was a make or break risk for the MCU. At that time, Tony Stark was better known than the Guardians, but he was still considered a "C" list character. RDJ's performance turned him into a top tier Marvel character.
@Latest Obsession You are correct - I guess my choice of wording was confusing.
This is one of the best reactions to GotG that I have seen! I appreciated the attention to detail and not missing any BIG scenes. I also believe without any doubt that GotG is better that CAatWS. It's bigger, included an infinity stone, Thanos, had humor and has space as a backdrop. Yeah, the fight is on!! 🥊
WS was meant to be more reality-based, perhaps the most reality-based of all the MCU
Love Guardians of the Galaxy. MCU is so enjoyable.
Look forward to you reacting to the Deadpool films.👍
NO FREAKING DOUBT!!! He's going to love it so much.
