Good video Good movie, I’ve liked it better than all the entries of the last phase - but I do feel bad that the team up hallway fight kills a bunch of experiments that half the movie is about following rockets past, killing them is like killing rocket, floor or liya. I can forgive mantis not wanting to use her powers on peter in act 1 but doing it on draxx in act 3, that’s a joke not a whole theme for the film.🦝🦦🐇 This might be Draco’s last film, wish he had more drama and less comedy but I like where they leave him in knowhere.

The High Evolutionary is a great representation of how an abusive dynamic punishes success and failure, and how you are only as valuable as you are useful. It's a message and behavior pattern that creates broken people that learn to either give up, or perpetrate. Truly escaping that looks like being able to love and accept yourself as you are, breaking codependent patterns, making and enforcing strong boundaries, and living in defiance of the broken systems we grew up in. It's a painful, but rewarding experience, and it is so well reflected over the course of the Guardians films, especially the nonlinear process of progress. Take care, much love y'all.

I like how the entire plot of the movie isn't about saving the universe from a world ending scenario or your usual "Avengers level threat." It's really just the Guardians trying to save the life of one of their own which opens up a deeper can of worms from there on out. The plot can't get anymore character-driven than that and I appreciate it. Usually third and final entries like this would go bigger in terms of scale and stakes, but not this one. It feels more personal and more grounded, and that just feels special. A special way to end a special trilogy.

People were looking for acknowledgment though. Some moment in endgame that showed he realised what he'd done. We never got that.

Nebula is my favourite character. She was such a hardened assassin that never got seen and tortured for existing. The line where Mantis commented about her hating herself made me shed a tear and seeing her break down after hearing Rocket's voice just crumbled me. I can't put into words why I feel this way and I think I'd do a disservice even attempting to explain it

another thing i think the guardians trilogy does so well is showing you don’t have to be the “perfect victim”. if victims of abuse don’t act “perfect”, their story and life can be discredited. but guardians shows how these deeply flawed characters were hurt and how they act badly bc of it, but we still love them bc they are deeply flawed. i feel like if rocket or peter or gamora weren’t as flawed as they are, their backstories wouldn’t have much impact.

I love how we all basically knew that Rocket's friends were gonna die, but Gunn didn't try to make us think otherwise. He wanted us to not want it to happen. To see a baby Rocket smile, laugh and play with his friends one last time before it was taken away. And when it was taken away it was done in the most brilliant, but depressing and heartbreakibg scene. Man, what a movie. What a filmmaker.

For over a decade, my favorite MCU film was the original Iron Man. Watching Iron Man for the first time changed my life. Tony Stark's character inspired me to become an engineer, which I am today... I never thought that any MCU film would top that. But Vol. 3 instantly became my NEW favorite. It was just so good, and such a huge contrast from the recent MCU movies of phase 4.

I honestly can't stop crying. I was teary-eyed from the very beginning, looking at those innocent baby raccoons scrambling and playing together, then all stop in fear once the monster that an abuser is appears to prey on them. Evrey flashback I had tears held back if they weren't already flowing, anyone who's experienced abuse knows those moments of joy you cling to before you're exposed to more fear and pain from those who cause it. I always loved rocket but now i can fully relate and love him wholeheartedly with his backstory and character out and open. Empathy for animals and children is tenfold with how innocent and vulnerable they are to those who are in control of them and it breaks my heart. Not even just rocket was incredible in this moive, each character with their own struggles and pain gotten their each and own well deserved conclusions. This moive was incredible and i expected nothing less with how great the previous films were.

I'm honestly not ready to say goodbye to the Guardians, but I don't want to see them come back on screen without James Gunn directing the film, so if this is the last time we see them, then thank you Gunn for giving us the guardians. they well always have a special place in my heart.

This movie actually made me cry in front of my girlfriend. Seeing Peter finally see his old man and hug him made me cry even more. Rockets dancing with Groot and his final scream of joy and happiness made me cry even more. There are plenty of characters who’ve gone through Rocket’s character arc, but something about him and how his character has been written made me actually love seeing him happy. Like it was earned, deserved, and how he actually should be. I actually like seeing a happy rocket. So many writers turn characters similar to Rocket into being better people, and I never feel it. This time I felt it. It was an amalgamation of so many things when it comes to his character. This ending was bittersweet. The characters may have not gotten what they wanted, but they got what they needed. Not just in family, but in themselves. They have new goals in life. This movie spoke to me on so many levels. I cried because I realized this was the last time we’d see all of the guardians together. The only MCU movies that give me a hint of that Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy feeling with how grounded it is, even in the larger MCU. James Gunn outdid himself. The first MCU movie to make me cry ever since the MCU was a thing. Congratulations to everyone who worked on Guardians of the Galaxy 3. The Guardians will be loved and missed ❤

I read your paragraph so easily bc your words are exactly what I felt . Good thing I didn’t see this with my gf bc I was actually crying as if someone died in my family and just like u said I didn’t just cry of sadness but of the “happy” ending . Not the best but definitely rewarding

One of the things I’d like to point out is that Peter Quill’s backpack contains a Panthro action figure, which is not only fitting since Thundercats aired from 1985-88 (perfectly fitting in the age bracket for Peter to have seen it from when he was 5-8), but the Thundercats themselves were Alien man-cats and the Guardians are on Counter-Earth, which not only sounds a bit like Third Earth but is populated by sapient humanoid animals. Hell, the 2011 iteration of ThunderCats had plans to reveal that it was Mumm-Ra who created the Animals by mixing animal and human dna in a series of experiments similar to what the High Evolutionary was doing. What I’m trying to say is that James Gunn is a genius (but we already knew that)

just saw this movie a week or 2 after release and somehow avoided all spoilers, i cried 3-4 times. when rockets friends died, when rocket was about to cross over into the afterlife, when he went to save the other animals, and when come and get your love came on. incredibly powerful movie

If James Gunn can make us feels like this with a walrus in a wheelchair, otters with robots arm & a spider rabbit …imagine what he can do with character like Clark Kent

The breakout scene, where Lyla gets shot, is absolutely gut wrenching. Everything about Rocket’s back story was completely predictable, and yet somehow still emotionally relevant. That’s the magic of James Gunn. This is the first Guardians film in which Gunn is credited as the sole writer, and I think that it shows. I believe the only thing that could have made the movie better, is to have another writer there to wrangle in Gunn during some of the comedic sequences that dragged on just a little too long.

Hats off to James Gunn for this masterpiece. This wasn’t a Marvel movie, it was a James Gunn film with marvel characters. The heart, the emotion, the humor. No over the top marvel shoe-ins. No bullshit. Just a great story told well.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 was an absolute gem. It really should’ve been the beginning of Phase 5 and I can’t believe how much I enjoyed this film and I wasn’t even a fan of the Guardians films or the characters at first but I’ve grown to appreciate and like them more as time went on and this film was a great way to end a great trilogy.

Spider-Man 3 is not great, it’s good but not nearly as good as 1 and 2, and the dark knight rises is a good movie with some great moments but some really bad execution with a lot of things

Guardians of the Galaxy always give me the perfect “Dungeons and Dragons Party” vibes, and the fact that this is like Spelljammer. Yet Volume 3 felt like the very last Hurrah for not just the party, but closing the doors to open new ones for the next party within their world. Absolute perfection.

I watched this with my GF. She hasn't watched a single MCU movie since 2008. She loved this movie. She felt the emotion. She was never lost. I think that alone is a testament to how good this movie is.

The stylized expressions for all the animals is what disney should consider if they're gonna make classic remakes

Last time I saw a villain as brutal and despicable as the Evolutionary was when I watched Made in Abyss. Both that and this film made me feel so many emotions. Including shock, disgust and grief. I was absolutely crushed when I saw what Rocket went through and how he lost his friends and I burst into tears when he reunited with them again... While Quill screams in anguish trying to save Rocket's life... Such a beautiful and emotional film...

Definitely up there in my all time favorite trilogies. Hats off to Mr Gunn and crew.

This is my favorite MCU movie. I connected to this movie so much. I felt… seen. But I mainly connected to Rocket and what he went through. I recently lost my sister and it tore me, and to see Rocket see his friends die… to see Lyla die… I really connected to that. But I also connected to what Quill had to learn. I connected to the journey of the Guardians. I love this film and these characters. Thank you, James Francis Gunn, for making this beautifully special, vulnerable film.

Doctor Strange 2 was sadly the opposite, as far as being a Raimi movie goes

I think Gunn epitomizes an earlier era of superhero filmmaking. One that relied on either absurdly talented individuals or ones with a real take on the material. Don’t get me wrong. Even in the earlier 2000s, you had Mark Steven Johnson(daredevil, ghost rider) type of guys hired to get a job done, but you also had Sam Raimi, Christopher Nolan, Bryan Singer(I know. I know), Guillermo del Toro, Ang Lee, etc. It hasn’t been all bad this decade with James Gunn, Joss Whedon(I know, I know again), Ryan Coogler, Snyder(though my feelings on him are mixed), etc. These were commercial projects, but there was a level of artistry and individuality. Hollywood still wasn’t unsure with this was a fad that would go away. Now that they have proven to be so successful, they decided to hire tv directors and talented indie filmmakers with no experience doing big films at a rapid pace. Look not everyone one of these can be winners, but if you’re batting average is one truly great movie(totally subjective of course) every 9 movies now…….maybe it’s time to slow down and think about the people you hire and trust them and not too many “you gotta set up this other movie” demand.

Wat. How you gonna leave out the Russo bros? Winter Soldier, Civil War, Infinity War. Those three are all in the same tier as TDK, Logan, and First Class / Days of Future Past. MAYBE Guardians 3 is in that tier. Honestly its probably not, although the guardians trilogy as a collection is. And I love Guardians 3- its an instant top 5 for me. Raimi made a superhero film like last year which I love but y'all didn't but that was incredibly stylized. Del Toros superhero films were good but not in the upper echelon. Ang Lee only made Hulk and it was NOT good. Anyway, its just weird how yall try and act like current MCU projects lack vision and signature. In the grand timeline, there was a 5 year gap between two top tier projects - Infinity War and Guardians 3. What happened during that time? Uh, a global pandemic that screwed up everyone's plans. The death of one of the intended MCU leads. Im ignoring Endgame and No Way Home which many if not most will consider top tier. Thats 4 within a 5 year period. My point is, Gunn doesnt represent a return to form. He doesnt represent an earlier era. There have always been mid and shit and overly commercialzed superhero movies. We just never had them in the WAKE of Infinity War, the greatest cbm of all time. The heroin of superhero films, making everything else seem mid by comparison. This KZreadr claiming that Guardians isnt an MCU film. As if there weren't other MCU projects that directly contributed to character growth. Gunn can complain about Gamora dying or Starlord lashing out at Thanos. Or say Drax was made into a comic relief- as if that wasnt a specific criticism levied at Guardians 2. But his lead - Rocket - as well as Groot both received excellent treatment and character work in the Avengers movies. Same with Nebula. And that character work directly contributes to Guardians 3.

I enjoy the Russo’s Marvel movies well enough specifically when it comes to Winter Soldier because I felt they had a take such as trying to put Cap in a 1970s political thriller, but when it comes to their filmmaking with some of the Avengers movies…….they could be better. I get the feeling they are often pre visualized. As for Raimi, i actually really enjoyed Multiverse of Madness for what he brought to it. I think the big Russo team ups are still fun, but have lost their power a bit for me. If I had to narrow down the best or favorite since 2013, 10 years ago I’d say in no particular order Into the Spider-Verse The Batman Logan Guardians of the Galaxy The Suicide Squad Captain America: Winter Soldier Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2 Black Panther Zack Snyder’s Justice League Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3 Hm: Deadpool, Wonder Woman, Endgame, Ragnarok, multiverse of madness,

People are forgetting to mention how beautiful of a review this is. The second half feels like a poem or a speech, you can hear and feel the emotion in his voice. I don’t have the right words to describe it but the words “beautiful” and “relatable”. The words he speaks and the tone in which he says it carry the motivation that the Guardians trilogy gives. I too want to write or speak a motivational piece. Honestly, a beautiful review on a beautiful movie from a beautiful trilogy. This movie, even just having watched it once, will forever be in my top 5 favorite movies. Usually when watching a show or movie, my eyes only get watery and dry up or one single tear will fall down. But this movie, this movie is the first time I’ve sobbed while watching since the ending of How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. Even with HTTYD, I wasn’t really sobbing, I just kept crying all the way from the theater, the car ride home, and the final moments before I fell asleep that night. But with this movie, the first scene I teared up for was the first scene about Rocket’s backstory. The scene where I lost it was when Rocket first met his friends, when he first met Lylla. When Lylla told Rocket, “It’s ok friend, don’t let them scare you”, and when Rocket said his first word, I lost it. They way Lylla showed so much love and care for Rocket touched my heart, it was the type of love and care I long and wish for whenever I’m sad or hurt. And that “hurts” hurt my soul, but probably not as much as Rocket was hurting. This movie is gold storytelling and deserves to be nominated at the Oscars and deserves at least a dozen of awards. And please, I need a Lylla Otter plush and a stuffed animal of the rest of the furry friends. God bless this wonderful movie and James Gunn❤

Every Guardians movie has always connected with me emotionally. I've laughed with every movie, I cried with every movie, and I've loved every movie. Best Superhero trilogy since Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy.

Thank you James, for actually planning stuff out and using practical/real-world effects and sets wherever possible. These films kinda feel like how many blockbusters felt before the whole factory-line, extended-universe CBM craze: tangible, weighty and raw.

That entire sequence at the Orgoscope was a visual feast. Very creatively well put together through mostly practical means to elevate the already fascinating set designs. All the Counter-Earth stuff was great too but man, Orgoscope was just something else

There were so many times in this movie I was about to cry, but then the anger of how the "High Evolutionary" was treating people actually over rode it and I nearly started yelling at the screen. I didn't, because I'm not nuts, but man... that villain was a scumbag. Chukwudi is an AMAZING actor and should get an award for playing this role.

This was beautiful, man. i think you really understand james gunn, and so like his movies, this video essay made feel a lot and gave me goose bumps!

The Guardians of the galaxy have a connection like the old avengers did back in age of Ultron. People who show what real friendships and bonds that aren't exaggerated. They feels so real compared to the rest of the MCU

I got to say, it’s been nice to see James Gunn grow and become more creative as a Director, making more artistic and ambitious shots, makes me very happy for him him

Guardians 3 made me feel things I didn't think I'd ever even feel. I still feel slightly sick after watching it for a second time, in the best possible way where there's just so many emotions going through me. It was an excellent choice that Rocket brutalizing his abuser didn't even feel triumphant, it wasn't like anyone was jumping out of their seats cheering and jeering. The movie didn't shy away from pain, instead it made it's audience understand and empathize with Rocket's actions in the worst possible way. You know in your heart you would never want to do that to anyone, and kindhearted Rocket sure as hell wouldn't either. But his maker just wasn't human. His creation and life were so twisted and vile, and he was ONLY an abuser to Rocket. He gave Rocket nothing but pain. Seeing that emotional burst from Rocket, him letting everything go and just hitting, scratching, biting, was heart wrenching. I don't even have the words to fully describe what I went through in that scene. James Gunn is an artist, for the love of god watch this movie if you haven't already.

It "hurts" to let these characters go, to let James not drive them anymore, because they've driven me to some dark ends in myself. And the line, "maybe we experience pain so we can free others from it", ahh!!

Last time I ever cried at an MCU movie was Guardians Vol. 2. Vol. 3 made me cry so many times. Especially when the screen cuts to black knowing this group of misfits wont come back. This movie broke me in the best way possible.

For me the guardians movies always had the most heart out of all the mcu movies. None of the mcu movies made me tear up as much as them and especially Gotg 3. James is great at humanising these characters and making them relatable. Which is why we care so much about them.

I just watched the movie yesterday, and I have never had such a delayed reaction to what's going on. It took over like 20 minutes to process one of the most emotional scenes in Rocket's backstory. Ever since the first movie, I've always been emotionally attached to Rocket and Peter. All of these characters in the GOTG films just feel absolutely real. The last two times I cried during a Marvel movie were Wakanda Forever and GOTG Vol. 2(I watched it for the first time in February of this year-). I'm so happy James Gunn is back his movies are beautiful.

James Gunn played with my emotions like 3-4 times during the entire movie

Never been a mcu fan, and never really have any emotion when i watch all sorts of movies, but out of all films the last thing i expected to start bawling my eyes out over was a Cybernetic Raccoon and Otter so much.
