Ravager Gamora’s main issue with rejoining the guardians was that Peter, and the others to some extent, kept expecting her to be the same as this OG Gamora. Maybe she could be, maybe she will be, but she hates being forced into it. Her father forced her to become someone she didn’t want to be, and now that Thanos died (remember, she didn’t really leave him by choice) she has the opportunity to find herself. I’d imagine that most of OG Gamora’s mindset for joining the guardians was to find safety in numbers, to keep away from her father. Now, Thanos is not a present force to scare her and keep her humble, obedient, or subdued. She’s a ravager, so she can be as wild as she wants. Peter did not want her to be that way. To New Gamora, Peter’s wishes were activating that voice in her that says “he wants you to become something you’re not” and it scared her. It’s scared her, and she HATES being scared. So what did she do? She got angry, and violent. Pretty much what she’s done her whole life. OG Gamora was a personality that developed by chance. Gamora found good influences as soon as she escaped from Thanos, and she became this sort of “classy anti hero” that did some good and some bad. Ravager Gamora is essentially who she would’ve been, had she escaped from Thanos and sold off the orb as she had originally intended in the first movie.

I think the jarring contrast between the humor and the drama is consistent with the character dynamics of the film. I mean if you think about it, thats basically their group in a nutshell. Its chaotic, nothing seems to go right, they're constantly fighting with each other, and then two minutes later they're making jokes at often times innappropriate situations. It really makes them FEEL like a riff raff band of ragtags and outcasts, flaws and all: they're imperfect and pretty stupid sometimes, but they all really do love and care for each other, and I think thats why the guardians series is so unique: its has heart behind it. They're not a team sent to save everyone, they're a family, who bicker and laugh together, and thats what makes the chemistry so believable

Another thing I actually like about this villian so much is he's not what so ever sympathetic. He's not a character you can't simply twist around to feel sorry for. This guy is a bonified bad guy.

7:57 I feel like we can give Nebula a pass for this, since imo it actually makes sense she would act like this during the movie if you look at it from a certain perspective. Both her and Rocket are cyborgs that had shitty father figures that saw them as imperfect, and altered them physically to mold them into their image. I know they've stated Rocket doesnt talk much about his past, but it makes sense that they would grow more of a bond since they're also probably the only two on the team that know exactly what the other has been through. So now, when that one person is teetering on the brink of death and you're on a race against time to save him, it makes sense that she would be on edge for the whole movie.

What we thought was a running gag turns out to be an actual character arc.

For people thinking Gamora was too extreme, here is something you must remember: this is not just Gamora before Guardians 1 (where you'll remember she was QUITE antagonistic to Quill), this is a Gamora who has spent MANY years since with the Ravagers being a ruthless mercenary. Bonding with Peter and the others softened the other version over years into the Gamora who died thanks to their love for each other, their fun and silliness, and their desire to mostly help people. It's not at all a stretch that the new Gamora could grow into a much different person when the family that molded her is a group of rough, ruthless, marauding pirates.

Dog days ending the series means a lot. It’s about moving on from the past. Throughout the movie music has been old, and using a cassette player in the first 2 movies. For Peter to use a Zune in this movie is him still holding onto the past when he lost Yondu. And when he gives Rocket the aux it’s a song from the 2000s playlist, a new day.

As I was watching the movie I kept hoping for somebody to slap some sense into Peter so he could understand that, stop embarrassing himself, and move on. When Peter stopped talking with her and just let his actions speak for themselves, let her know what the original fell for, without being pushy and above all unfaithful to the original’s memory, allowing them to gain understanding of each other and move on, that is when I started accepting their characters and the relationship between them.

When my gran got dementia and slowly forgot who we all were to the point where to her we were just strangers to her, are we "pushing" for still going to see her and looking after her as if she was my gran?

Basically almost the same as the one the Guardians knew, but it doesn't change the fact that they share no real bond. Peter naturally projects his emotions onto her becouse she reminds him of his beloved partner. In return she acts hostile since to her he is nothing but a stubborn stranger. It is more complex with Nebula since both share some of the same memories and this is why they more naturally connect. This happens even after Nebula killed her other version in front of this Gamora(who actually was the real sister to her). This is a cool set up for interesting story about their relation but obviously movie is not supposed to focus on that so unfortunately can't go deeper into this topic. The point is: Your grandma is still your grandma even if she doesn't remmember You. She is the same person with whom You share real bonds and memories so go visit her.

So thank you, James Gunn. This final GoTG film by Gunn makes me even more interested in what he has to offer for DC.

For me the comedy didn't always land and the first half was kind of dragging but the second half was good

There were a lot of good points (ex. Starlord not having his helmet because… I dunno he sold it at a flea market I guess) but many others felt like you were just trying to find things to criticize. The music choice being “bad” is pretty much different for each person. And as for the guardians all wearing the same outfit, well it kinda makes sense since they’ve been working as a team for a while now.

Agreed. After actually watching the movie and finding nearly nothing wrong I gotta say calling it mediocre was painful. I didn't even notice the music choice and Gunn's family/friends did a fine job acting. The setpieces were strange but that's good, and every character got to fulfill their arcs, even Warlock and Quinn/Gamora, who were apparently "sidelined" despite being main characters with more runtime than Rockets love interest. As much as I don't wanna advocate for giving writers complete freedom with no one to reign them in, this swansong by Gunn felt like a satisfying and epic conclusion to the Guardians I didn't expect but appreciated anyway. If Endgame was the MCU ending, this was the epilog, the final finale. I real ending. I can rest now.

It was an reasonable okay movie. I actually sat through it all in one viewing which is unusual for me to begin with. So Kudos to Volume 3 for that at least. Now, you would think Star Lord would have gotten another helmet. The whole "I'm about to die in space" felt very weak. Even without seeing Warlock's involvement, I knew how he was going to be saved. That whole 30 seconds was wasted suspense. Some of the sound track I liked, but Jesus this movie had so many music entries that it damn near comes off as GotG the musical. You don't need a sound track added to every fifth scene. And that is what it felt like to me anyway. The rainbow space suits just didn't work for me. And the joke about the comms button really didn't work either. You put in the suits to make the woke community think you are servicing them, and then try to tie in couple of jokes around the suit colors simply so to give this presence in the film some logical importance. Yeah, it just didn't fit right to me. The ending though ... I get it. The general theme of The Guardians is that you have a mix match group of people who come together for a single purpose but who really don't have any other plans so they stay together ... and get on each other's every lasting nerves. I could see so many of the original team moving on to other things (or taking a break) simply because they need space and time away from each other. It is like being in a jail cell for months with the same couple of people, breaking out, and then realize you really just don't want to be hanging out with them now that you aren't forced to do so even when doing so might befit you. But that is the great thing about Guardians. Even when the group splits up, some member of the band is bringing them back together. Even if the reason isn't to save the Galaxy.

I completely agree with you about Quill, but in terms of the Guardians themselves feeling like a well-oiled machine, I actually felt like the rest of the team were more dysfunctional here, with a lot of them becoming caricatures of themselves (Drax being an idiot, Mantis being childish, Nebula being angry etc.) Fitting in with what the Drinker said about the wildly inconsistent emotional tone, I found it really irritating that their most negative traits kept screwing up the plot in some spectacular and completely avoidable way in a film that was deadly serious at other times. The standout moment of this for me was when Drax goes against instructions to stay with the ship and drags Mantis along for the ride, in a move that nearly (and predictably) got them killed. That sort of stupidity took it from the Guardians' usual type of comedy into pure cartoonish idiocy, and the constant bickering between them seemed less like "friends teasing each other" or even "strong personalities clashing and testing each other", and more "they look like they hold each other in complete contempt and can barely stand each other, why the hell are they still together?" I know they were building up to the team going their separate ways, but when the Avengers broke up in Civil War it had real weight because it was driven by deeply ideological or personal issues, and it didn't actually undermine the respect they had for each other. This felt more like sniping school children not contacting each other once they graduate and they're no longer forced to spend time together.

I disagree with this critic review. I loved the movie. It was fantastic start to finish.

In a time where we have a discombobulated multiverse story where even the directors and screenwriters get confused, where we have characters we loved turned to a joke (Thor in particular), where there has to be diversity and "the message" in everything and where cheap rip-offs replace our well established original characters, James Gunn and his team gave us Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3. A heartfelt and sincere story about a group trying to save their friend from an evil maniac. A story about family, friendship, overcoming loss and trauma and confronting one's past. It's a story about fictional characters, that manages to reach their audience naturally and is capable of producing more change than any forced lecture ever could. It fulfills the purpose of a movie; to entertain and to inspire, to make one's day and to lift people up. Thank you James Gunn and co. for this wonderful movie and trilogy.

Tragedy is what made the Comics popular for decades. Read a Fantastic four or Avengers Comic from the 80-90s they are written like a soap opera and it was good. But the MCU Movies lost that and replaced it with "pseudo tragedy" that had no impact or meaning in the end.

This movie had me feeling sad for Rocket and Starlord. One for sympathy of a tortured animal/being and the other for how Starlord still deeply loved Gamora but couldn’t have what he once had with this new version.

If you think about it even further, the HE wanted to change things from how they were supposed to be. Ravager Gamora is who Gamora is meant to be. The only reason she was ever the “OG Gamora” we know and love is because, by chance, she found some good-ish influences and had to save the world immediately after she escaped Thanos. Ravager Gamora escaped Thanos without any of those character-shaping moments. She went straight to the biggest band of thieves she could find, and fit right in with that crowd. If OG Gamora had never found the Guardians, she would’ve become Ravager Gamora. So in the parallel between the HE wanting to change things from how they should be, and Peter wanting to change Ravager Gamora, we can see that they’re actually a much stronger parallel than we may have realized.

Yea she was super f@ckin intense at times. The same with Gamora when she pushed Peter and nearly punched him.

There's a thing about Quill's helmet actually. It was originally broken and left on Ego at the end of volume 2 and I think Gunn intended it to stay broken, but it comes back in Infinity War. We're left to assume that he Just got a new one, but I think Gunn chose to ignore it instead. He's even addressed it in an interview. I do think part of the issue is simply the fact that the film has come a bit too late and the characters have been used in other films and a special, which added important details which weren't part of the plan for the trilogy, but had to be addressed in the film for continuity. Like how they were obligated to continue the detail of Quill and Mantis now being biologically related. Speaking of Mantis, her powers seem to have changed. She's now capable of full on mind control.

I loved this film. I agree the soundtrack was a bit overbearing and Rocket's backstory could have been a bit better implemented but I think some of the other things the Drinker brings up is just nitpicking. The 2 and a half hour runtime didn't really feel that long for me and it didn't feel to fetch questy for me. Although I totally agree it is sad how everyone ditched their awesome outfits for the super bland uniforms.

This movie touched me emotionally. I've been thinking about it for days after watching it. Nebula's reaction when she hears Rocket's voice and knows he's alive, Gamora crying when she thinks Quill has died, Mantis sticking up for Drax against Nebula and then Nebula later saying how much Drax has grown.

Lylla's moment with Rocket in his near death experience hit me more than I expected a first-intro'd character would. Rocket's guilt coming pouring out and how she just helps him let go of all of it and reassuring him that where he came from never defined who he is.

This movie made me realize that not all characters need to be flushed out in a single movie, I think you’ve mentioned this before, that sometimes a flat character is good for a story. I think in this case I didn’t mind them not knowing what to do with Adam warlock because after the initial cool battle to start the plot of the movie, it’s then revealed to us that Adam is just a kid and shown quite well that he doesn’t have too complex of brain function yet but that he can endure some pain and is loyal to his mom. And I think they did just enough with him to set him up for some excitement for the next film without deducting too much from the rest of the cast in this film as he still played a small roll in the narrative. And I’m not saying it was handled beautifully but I think the movie is better for having him in there and definitely the next movie is better for it. I think part of the reason phase four of Marvel was so shit other than the talked about message and trash that it’s produced is that most of the movies were new people nobody had any reason to care about. Spider-Man did well because it was good but otherwise like doctor strange wasn’t that good but still did ok because it had a character the audience was familiar with and enjoyed. Black panther had its issues but it still did alright because it had familiar faces for us to get excited about and want to go see it. I still haven’t seen eternals or whatever it’s called because I had no desire to go watch it even before I heard it was a trash movie. And I think that’s one of the rolls Adam warlock played in this movie. To give us a reason to get excited for the next one because they knew they were going to be reshuffling the cast

Which means she has the same overall potential as the one that died, but she’ll never achieve that with the Ravagers. And I’m not talking about romance. She went from being ruthless and friendless to a true hero. All this Gamora has a hope of achieving is not being friendless on her current path.

I didn't really find any of Nebula's yelling "screechy." She yelled a lot, sure, but it very clearly came from a place of trying to protect everyone. It never really came-across as annoying, and if anything, she was the character I enjoyed seeing the most out of the lot.

Aside from Lang, when was the last time someone in the MCU got the girl? Strange and both Peters are alone, and Thor is a single parent. I'm not saying romance always needs to be at the forefront, but the MCU has shied away from it to the point where there's little to ground the increasingly absurd stakes.

This movie caught me off guard. I wasn't expecting such a roller coaster of emotions. Ur spot on correct in ur critique, but I'm not sure that a lot of it was the big problem u made it out to be. The pacing, sure, but I'm not sure certain that themes needed to be explored as much as u say, though I could've used more villain an Rocket flashbacks, not a deep dive into the utopian world. That could've remained a figment of our imagination. All an all it was a great conclusion to a very interesting series, and I too am glad it wasn't handcuffed to the MCU's umbrella narrative.

Solid movie. My only gripe was Adam Warlock. They really didn't know what to do with him...

Nothing is bad with a bad guy being a bad guy in the most simplest way. Just get yourself a good actor who can give life to the script. I’d say this is the best sent off we could’ve get from this franchise. It is by far the best trilogy we’ve got from the MCU! I’ll miss these a-holes greatly !

Nah frosty you are way wrong.

Fun fact: Dan Abnett also wrote for Marvel comics and the look of the Guardians actually came from his 2008 run when he consulted for the movie. As for the suits, Drinker; those are the suits from the 2008 CB run so as a fan of that run I was happy to see them. Though, they could have been a bit brighter. As for this movie, I like it but as you said it is riddled with problems. The stuff that works, like Rocket and High Evolutionary were great, but as you said the jokes, and the plot holes really do add up. I still can't bring myself to hate this movie like Ant-man 3 or Phase four, but it's clear that Gunn needed someone else to reign him in and this movie needed to be rewritten a bit to remove some of the dumb elements. All in all, it's a 7.5//10 for me personally even with these problems.

The "DnA" (short for Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning) cosmic Marvel run is some of the best writing in comics in the last 40 years. You can find the full reading order online, highly recommended for anybody that enjoys the cosmic stories.

I feel like the only real problem I had was the comedy in the first 45-ish minutes of the movie. It undercut the serious moments. But eventually the comedy did stop being so much of a problem. Nebula did seem kinda useless and screechy, but I wasn't expecting her to do much anyways since I more preferred just her being there and her having a short temper with a soft side underneath which I really enjoyed in her little stranded time with Tony in Endgame. The characters were otherwise fine, and I liked the way they are handled. I like how they ended the movie as everyone seems to be wrapping up their journeys. Quill reuniting with Gramps, Rocket being leader to a new and definitely interesting Guardians of the Galaxy, Mantis seeking to be more independent, etc... I also like how they handled the animal experimentation and perfecting a species. It did make me ask questions about whether a being could be perfected, I liked the villain who wasn't just a traumatized person lashing out and not a goofy villain either. The sheer violence of how his face is handled makes him and his interactions more serious.

I had to stop watching. The humor was cringe af. It felt like the movie was written by a 9 year old.

Here sadly is where I and The Drinker will part ways. I just watched this yesterday and I really liked it. The run time flew by and that’s coming from someone that starts getting ansy at the 90mn mark normally. I thought there were great redemption arcs and the characters all came to a wholeness at the end. I didn’t find the comedy over the top or misplaced at all, it was one of the first things I commented on with my fellow moviegoers. As a whole I enjoyed this more than any other Marvel movie and I didn’t even know who they were before the first movie. It had a completeness that the other films just lacked. They didn’t tear down any of the major characters ( like what is even The Hulk now)no one replaced by a female child. Sorry Drinker you have fallen into this whole jaded fandom trap to the point that you just can’t see something even when it’s good because you’re so pissed about the awful things done previously. I didn’t go to film school, I’m just a fan but I found nothing disappointing about this flick.

to be fair Drinker's critique can be summary by "this could have been much better" instead of "this is bad". Every Movie Critique said the same thing "this film is messy". Credit to the drinker, he is the only one who addressed the problem: "James Gun was given too much creative freedom as a movie director", which is makes total sense. Gunn is working as architect of DCEU so he needs to think on bigger scale project, this might bleed to GOTG where he has unlimited freedom but limited time without someone to counter-balance his decision... and like Drinker said; "Gunn on a bad day still better than many director"

Take this scene out and write a better exposition and skip this nonsense." and his gripe with their uniforms really struck a cord with me. Part of the Superhero genre is for the characters to be wearing flashy, cool looking outfits and the Guardians' theme was that they're ragtag group with their unique identity and theme, and their outfits exemplified that. Having them synch up once in a while is fine and expected, but I didn't think it'd be like that for most of the movie.

Drinker, you are right in pointing out that Gunn was not the sole person responsible for the writing in the first movie, but the page you showed lists Dan Abnett, and he had no direct involvement in the movies. He's there because he, along with Andy Lanning, wrote the original Guardians of the Galaxy comic book run they (mainly) based their script on. Nicole Perlman is the one who actually got to co-write the original GOTG movie, and if memory serves me well, there was a bit of a controversy as to how much Gunn actually contributed in that regard. The second movie, though, was apparently entirely written by Gunn, while the other credits are merely acknowledgements to the comic book writers.
