I expected nothing less. I love Marvel and the universe of Marvel. Seeing Thanos more was a treat for me. Lee Pace did an excellent job in his role as well.

Literally all of the Guardians are hilarious and have very quotable lines. I am going to see it again just so I can remember and hear most of them. I was laughing hard so I missed the end of a few. I love that aliens seemingly take everything literally.

"They have sticks up their butts." - Star Lord/Peter Quill
"That's terrible. Who would put sticks up their butts?" - Gamora

"That went over your head." Star Lord
"Nothing goes over my head. I will catch it." Drax

"We literally just said that you didn't save me." -Star Lord
"Oh, I wasn't listening I was thinking about something else." - Drax

"We're like Kevin Bacon." - Gamora


This film left me wanting more and that's a good thing. There was a enough backstory to carry the film, but they left enough out for the sequel. My only pet peeve was the beginning with the melodramatic "my mom is dying of cancer" bit. It didn't fit the tone of the rest of the film which was more action packed and comedic. I didn't like that. They should have just left it as it was in the comics with her getting killed by aliens. The whole "touch my hand" thing was just lame but I understand why they felt the need to change it and have it connect to the reason why Star Lord becomes selfless.

Music choice was fantastic. Can't go wrong with 70s music.
