*Spoiler alert!* When I watched Avengers: Endgame four years ago, I knew that Tony Stark killing the Thanos from the past _might_ save some of the lives Thanos killed in Infinity War. Loki and Gamora were still alive in Loki and Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3, but that was because of them being displaced from their original points in time, rather than erasing Thanos from the present. At the very least, it did not make Infinity War inconsequential, since Vision was still dead in WandaVision and Heimdall was still dead in Thor: Love and Thunder. Still, I am very proud of Avengers: Endgame for doing what Dark Phoenix was too lazy to do in the same year - tell a layered story with a cleverly hidden explanation for why two characters who get killed off are inexplicably alive again in later films. Raven and Jean Grey both die in Dark Phoenix, but that movie does not care about sharing continuity with any X-Men films that take place before and after it, and breaks all the rules of being a prequel because they just didn't care. It never follows canon because Raven and Jean Grey were already alive in the original trilogy of X-Men films that were made before Dark Phoenix, but happen later.

for me personally, sometimes complex villains end up way too symphathizing rather than threatening that the audience aint terrified or against the villain, with the exception like Homelander, Griffith from Berserk, Johann from Monster. Simple evil villains that are just straight up as terrifying or just pure evil as complex villains that it reinforces the audience that the villain is nothing to be messed or have mercy with. Same thing can be said for antagonists.

James Gunn tweeted in 2018 "with all the love in my heart" when he finished the script, so this was clearly a passion project to him even before the firing-rehiring saga. And it makes it that much more emotional that he uses animals so heavily in the film since seeing an animal suffer in any way is enough to break anyone. James has said that to him the Guardians real protagonist has always been Rocket and he said that he loved Rocket so much that he was "like his son." and it was just really amazing what he did with this film. Especially since the main message is to spread empathy towards another and grow through love.

Nebula crying over Rocket being alive was one of the sweetest moments I've ever witnessed. she was being mean to everyone out of genuine fear for his safety and it showed when Mantis and Drax watched at her breakdown. They knew why she was acting the way she was. Chef's kiss to James gun for masterful directing there.

Lakia getting called a Good Dog at the end was ridiculously satisfying even though I knew it was coming it was so well done. Legit made me clap

I've never been close to crying in a movie theatre ever, but GOTG made me tear up for the first time ever. That scene of Rocket [almost] dying and Pratt trying to revive him, while Rocket's eyes slowly turned black indicating he's going, just crushed me.

When Lyla told Rocket that this was his story, i thought about his very first appearance in the first guardians of the galaxy up until that point.

And the thing is no body died in this movie. I have watched theories about who is gonna die in this movie and the fact that this movie can make me emotional without killing off their main characters is incredible. I feel like killing off a character is a cheap trick to make audiences feel sad but it feels bad especially when the reason is stupid. So yeh, JG show us that you can make being emotional and attach to the character without killing off that character.

The film is a perfect example of an olympic sized swimming pool in terms of writing, in comparison to something like quantum mania or multiverse of madness where it looks big on the surface but it's actually shallow as a shower.

Fun Fact: The character Adam Warlock was going to appear in Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 (2017), but his scene was cut since James Gunn felt it would end up having too many characters.

Some people didn’t like the Gamora & Quill relationship in this movie, suggesting that she should never have been killed (Gunn himself included).

I have never cried during a movie, movies have never really brought out a lot of emotion in me. When the movie ended my ass was crying tears of sadness and joy. My favorite marvel movie and one of my favorite movies overall.

Honestly, I haven't seen a villain that I wanted to get absolutely massacred like the High Evolutionary since Micah Bell. He's not on Micah's level yet, but if you ask me personally, he got pretty damn close.

I cried more during this movie more than all the other marvel movies combined, hell, more than every movie period, don't think a movie ever made me cry from happiness instead of sadness like the ending did for me, cant hear Dog Days without thinking of the ending

The MCU will be lost without James Gunn He literally reshaped the MCU with the first movie, and then saved thier ashes with Vol. 3, after the failure of QUANTUMANIA

@@jonasthemovie The "humour" in GOTG was already there in the MCU far before James Gunn was hired. And let's not forget James Gunn knows hot nail the humour and then yo use it to fit the plot and not in a serious scene.

Finally, a GREAT MCU movie where we the fans and audiences can at last *care,* *laugh* and *cry* for something! Thank you, Mr. Gunn.

I hope one day james gunn considers making an adaption of Brian Jacques's Redwall series. This movie made me finally believe someone could do that justice.

9:45 Adam warlock was what billy batson's shazam shouodve felt like. A great parallel to vision. Both are synthetic Superman esque new borns. Adam warlock was amazing!

GotG V3 was the best MCU film of 2023, I absolutely loved everything. It was sad to say farewell to the original Guardians, but that was the beginning of a new team. James Gunn gave it his all for his final MCU film, and I’m sure he has high hopes that he can do very well with his DCU.

Everything in this movie was an emotional rollercoaster, and Chukwudi Iwuji's performance as the High Evolutionary is a blueprint for what Kang should have been. If DC movies end up going in this direction I am 100% on board with them.

Won't lie I never saw that Drax was trying to be Peters best friend until you pointed it out but it makes so much sense.

Nebula's journey since the first movie was always interesting to me and seeing where she ends up at the end makes me very happy. She absolutely deserved it. I mean so did everyone else but I always loved her.

I almost cried in the cinema when Rocket got revived. And I was constantly like “please no no no Rocket cannot die please no”

This was a higher quality film than a lot of phase 5. Feeling and deeling with past traumas. I really felt for Rocket, Floor, Teefs, and Lylla in the flashbacks. I will still be hesitant for DC until we see the actual trailer for Blue Beetle.

The one thing guardians 3 and Spiderman across the spiderverse have in common they are both masterpieces and they in my top 5 favorites movies

Volume 3 is the best of the 3 in my opinion. While there were moments in the first two that I thought were boring, volume 3 got me hooked from start finish. I had many kinds of emotions watching it.

I spent so much time thinking about this movie after watching it...I still feel the feels remembering parts of it. It was just such a damn good movie, man, it can't be overstated.

I was straight up lonely Pablo Escobar I'd just seclude myself and think about what I just watched.

Oh man, when Lylla fell to the ground, I felt like screaming and could feel what Rocket was feeling.

A CGI raccoon screaming in this movie had more emotion than Superman's 'death' in Justice League, think about that for a moment.

Do you mean "Batman v Superman"?

Hands down the absolute best marvel trilogy..

Rocket Raccoon is a fan favorite with lots of people and we are already emotionally invested before Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3. We are now able to see Rocket's back story which he have only hinted in the first movie. Seeing Rocket's suffering and revenge only magnifies from his previous appearance in past Marvel movies. Rocket is really a raccoon. Cosmo is a good dog. I am Groot.

😂 yeah honestly they did an excellent job with Rocket, you get to see why he's a total jerk when people show him love, It's because deep inside he's afraid of loosing more friends and is also a shield that hides his dark past.

God the High Evolutionary and the way he repulsively stands against everything that the Guardians stand for, and really stands against life itself, makes him one of the greatest villains _ever._

There is no more heart wrenching relationship in the MCU than Quills and Gamoras. Two different people growing better and perfect for each other, one dies and one is left hopeless. Bringing a different and not willing version of the deceased back makes an analogy to erotic abandonment inevitable. The love of your life is your hope and future and them convincing you that they are indeed not in love with you anymore is another beast of sadness in life. I hope I forget her soon...

Even when going through such a serious movie you can still manage to make a hilarious and meme-filled review, well done

The thumbnail looks like something straight out of EVENT HORIZON

I'm happy to say that I closed my MCU phase off with this spectacle of a movie. Is it perfect? Nah. Is it better than anything we got since Endgame? Hell yes.

What I love about the movie is that they don't clench to the traditional idea of the family but nurture the concept of a "chosen family". It felt more family movie than any of those cliche family movies.

QOTD answer: Yes, this movie gave me hope for the MCU. I really hope James Gunn would once again direct another MCU franchise. The entire universe needs it.

This is only the second Marvel movie to make me cry while watching. Chris Pratt is amazing. His desperation and heartbreaking scream when Rocket is on the verge of passing. Broke me.. I mean hand over my mouth as tears ran down my face totally BROKEN! It's such a constant gut punch up until that moment and such a massive relief as well when Rocket finally recovered. James Gunn is a treasure. Loved when he made horror movies and I love when he makes hero films.

What makes James Gunn humor and dialogue work is that most of the time, it fits the scene and the characters. Most recent movies use humor and don't care which character is saying it, making the characters less relatable and more boring. In James Gunn films, you would know which character is saying which line just by seeing the script and not the character names.

Glad this is getting its proper praise all around. With all the excitement, oddities, and emotional variety this is up there with the peak of what a comic book team movie can and should be. Never a dull moment in this one, props to James Gunn

That fight scene in the end is one of the most satisfying fights I've seen, noit just due to amazing camera and coregraphy, but also since they're all fighting together and have (more or less) resolved their conflicts. Truly amazing.

This movie made me cry, and i've never cried watching a movie before in my entire life. It crawled deep into my feelings in a way that is unexplainable to me

I think another big thing is that all of these little petty conflicts and small interpersonal interactions make the characters feel like actual people and not just a bunch of one note archetypes

Not really the type of person to cry because of a movie, but this movie made me so emotional, and this was the first time I cried.

This has to be the best thing out of the mcu in years. Even the smallest details are hugely satisfying. For example, the setup of those gravity boots rocket made in the first scene. That paid off in rocket's final confrontation, and was the PERFECT counter to the high evolutionary manipulating gravity. Edit: Still salty that starlord just happened to leave his signature rocket boots and space mask at home, creating that scene where adam had to save him. I liked the scene, but that felt like a massive contrivance

James Gunn is good with quirky, weird outcasts. I have no faith in him being able to do a character like Superman without making him quirky/weird to match, which will NOT go down well.

The High Evolutionary is exactly the kind of villain we needed. It’s great to have villainous characters like Vader, or Thanos, or Davy Jones, that have tragic backstories or understandable motivations for what they’re doing, but also having villains that are just bad people to their core who you hate like Anton Chigurh can be equally compelling. The High Evolutionary has clear goals and motivations for his actions, but he is so clearly an awful evil bastard to his core, that you hate his guts. The incredible performance by the actor takes him to another level as well. The manic seething anger that he displays is insufferable to watch. The treatment of Rocket and his friends and the way he can so casually wipe out an entire planet of his own creations is chilling. The God complex that this guy has is unreal. When Rocket shredded his face and we eventually get to see the outcome, as well as when all the Guardians come together to kick the shit out of him because they also know what he did, it was so unbelievably satisfying. He was so memorable. This movie felt like a self contained Saturday morning cartoon and I mean that in the best way possible. So refreshing

The intro of this episode is basically my reaction throughout GOTG Vol 3

It's hard to weaponise completely when the tonal jumps are so blatant. I was laughing so hard as the credits were rolling because it hard cut from 'emotional Star-Lord trauma' scene to 'funny Drax dancing with kids'

the flashback scenes actually made me cry! 😭

I won't lie when he yelled out in pain when layla died I felt that

‘ people aren’t capable of crying for two hours“ well, he’s obviously never met me😭😭😭😭

def top 5 mcu movies

While watching the movie for the second time I was reminded of your video about Dead Man's Chest, because of the 3 pillars of a good plot: Goal, Stakes, and Urgency. Guardians of the Galaxy 3 explains all 3 in the first 10 or so minutes. Our goal is to find the passkey for the kill-switch. Rocket's life is at stake. And the time to do it is NOW because Rocket doesn't have much time left. Plot. And of course they keep adding layers to it. To get the passkey we need to infiltrate in this facility. Now we gotta find this guy because the passkey is actually in his head, now we gotta enter another facility, so on and so forth, everything always tying back to Rocket's life being in danger.

Imagine if the high evolutionary had the same acting vibe and style as Jonathan majors' kang. He would have been a perfect villain. Still great tho

James Gunn is a once in a generation talent.

The last great marvel film in a long time

I wonder what James Gunn did to get that heart wrenching scream out of Bradley Cooper

When Floor kept screaming, Rocket, Teeth, Floor go now, over and over. I nearly cried. :( 10/10 would take a bullet for friends.

This is my favorite MCU movie by far!!!

I just love that he brought us a mixture of toka azar & beebop ocksteady and had judy greer voice one

Im ngl i cried everytime they showed Rockets friends. “Teefs, Floor, Rocket, Go Now!!”😭😭

GotG Vol. 1 was about Drax facing an enemy whom all the guardians eventually fought. GotG Vol. 2 was about Star Lord facing his father who became and enemy and fought him alongside the guardians. GotG Vol. 3 was about Rocket facing his creator who has been his enemy and fighting him alongside the guardians. None of the first two is as emotional as Vol. 3, but you can see the point I'm trying to make. Each member of the team has had to fight a personal enemy (some in non-GotG movies).

This channel has instrumental in helping slowly write my dream movie to be perfect. There is no such thing as a perfect movie, but with your help, your lessens, and your incredible wealth of knowledge I find nowhere else, I think I can get it pretty damn close. Thank you Filmento!
