Finally watched this the other night. The soundtrack was the best part of this movie. Don't get the love for it, was just an alright movie to me.

What if you did both.
I finally saw it oN DVD after Mrs Bojangles thought it was a 'kids movie' and didn't want to go. Quite enjoyed it, even the cheese. The Kevin Bacon theory was great.

It's weird how it seems the norm to watch movies with other people. During the movie itself there's no social interaction because you're trying to enjoy the movie and not be those idiots who talk during the movie. Though it's good to talk about the movie afterwards with someone when it's still fresh in your mind.

I love the post mortem chat but hate when you go with someone and they to talk to you the whole time.

isnt it funny how in teenage days, dating was about dinner and a movie? for 1.5-2 hours you are sitting there not speaking. i guess one is hoping for some nookie nookie where talking is not required.

Guardians of the Serenity with elements of the story, the climactic battle scene and some of the main characters....
Trying too hard to repeat the success of The Avengers. OK cast, but it lacks Whedon's humour which made these two films enjoyable. Characters aren't a great team.
A watch it at home at movie.

The more I watch this the funnier it gets. Drax was just gold.
Saw it on a plane coming home after Xmas. Very good, not great. The writers got lazy from time to time and kept scripting dumb moments that snapped me out of their otherwise entertaining universe. Oh, and the soundtrack/walkman crap got annoying quick.

It was the gimmick of the fantastic
Seventies soundtrack in an SF movie and Groot was less wooden than Zoe Saldana

I can't stand kids who cannot make out the difference between watching a movie at home and watching one at a movie theatre - I demand total silence!!!

Watched it this afternoon and it's the most entertaining Marvel movie I've seen. But that's not saying much, they're usually not that good (unless you're a comic fanboy - I have not read a single Marvel comic). Marvel Cinematic Universe films I have now watched are Iron Man, Thor, Marvel's The Avengers, Thor: The Dark World and Guardians of the Galaxy. Are they going to have a movie about the talking duck at the end?
Setting it not on Earth and in space with made up planets was a great, fresh change and visually entertaining, and the comedy felt smoother and funnier than usual (i.e. one of kamikaze planes landing in a pool lol). I suspect it was easier to write an entertaining film because no one gave a s**t about these characters compared to the usual superhero problem of this-is-how-character-x-behaves-and-we-can't-deviate. The victory with no consequences ending was as stale as usual though. Portmanteau said they need an Empire Strikes Back ending in one of these films and that's definitely true. Good guys winning with only scratches and bruises is predictable, boring AND NOT REALISTIC.
Ideally Zoe Saldana will show her green breasts in the next movie and Bootista will wear a flat cap, sunnies, Georgetown jersey, skinny jeans and winter boots.
Would've looked better with white skin and red hair. I'm not into bald blue women (racist).
Every Marvel movie is an at home for free movie.
Too bad he's only in s**t movies.

Those honest trailers are the best.
Guardians feels like I was watching Farscape the movie. Same character dynamic and humour.
