azrael Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Might as well do this now since they announced the names, dates, and other stuff at SDCC 2012. Source: http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/MarvelFreshman/news/?a=63850 Concept art: Quote
GMANIFESS Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 No desire or interest in these characters, but Marvel hollywood hasn't let me down yet, so i'll wait in see. They said they were gonna go with galactic themes in the next wave of films. If they fight Thanos then i'll be intrigued. More excited for a Black Panther film. Quote
anime52k8 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 honestly, Cosmic marvel is really uninteresting to me. I'll probably go see it but I don't have high hopes for it. Quote
BeyondTheGrave Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 so you don't want to see a raccoon shooting a gun? I do think Pixar would do a good job making this. Quote
Funkenstein Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I find cosmic Marvel much more interesting than Earthside. The stories are much more creative and imaginative. They can play around with alternate universes , alien invasions and time travel. Quote
Penguin Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Rocket Raccoon... man, if they translate the humour well, this could be damn funny, but in a good way. Wonder if Cosmo will be in it too? Be interesting to see how they simplify a lot of these character's origins. Some are pretty convoluted. Quote

azrael Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 BTW, did anyone watch Zero Dark Thirty or Moneyball? How is this guy in a slightly less comedic role (i.e. Parks and Recereation)? Chris Pratt Getting ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy’ Lead Quote
azrael Posted April 3, 2013 Author Posted April 3, 2013 Apparently the Phase One boxset has some extras (Spoiler'd for size) Quote

Mommar Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 I still don't understand why they've decided to make this movie. I simply can't see how it's any good. Certainly during my entire tenure reading Marvel comics I never had a run-in with a single one of these characters nor do I understand why they would be interesting to watch or include in some Marvel Team Up movie.

Certainly during my entire tenure reading Marvel comics I never had a run-in with a single one of these characters nor do I understand why they would be interesting to watch or include in some Marvel Team Up movie. "I simply can't see how it's any good." Not to be combative, but if you've never read any of these characters, why would you have an opinion like that? Is that how you approach any story you've never heard of before? Unless you've read some of the more recent cosmic/sci-fi Marvel story arcs, like "Annihilation" or "Reign of Kings", it's not likely you would know anything about these characters. Even though they've all been around more than 30 years, they've never been more than obscure until very recently. As to why they decided to put money on the Guardians, we can only speculate they see some potential in exploring the more traditionally science fiction aspects of Marvel, using the more cosmic than magic interpretation of Thor as a starting point. I read the entire run of this incarnation of the Guardians of the Galaxy and loved it. Solid action, excellent wit. If Slither is any indication, James Gunn should be able to do it justice. I'm looking very forward to this film. Quote
Mommar Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 Taking that one sentence out of context isn't really fair. I said that I haven't read nor heard of any of these characters. All I'm saying is that I've never been exposed to it in any of my time reading comics. That's the reason why I can't see how it's any good. I've never had anybody recommend them or anything. Completely off the radar to me. Quote
Penguin Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) Fair enough... but I still think it's a weird choice of words. When I first heard about District 9, I thought "hmmm... wonder if that will be any good", not "I've never heard of that before... I can't see how it's any good". But you can't say you've never had anyone recommend it. I just did. If you're a fan of big space ships, bigger guns, and sharp humour, you should be hoping this film lives up to its source material. As per the normal rules of the internet, this should be the point where someone posts "Are you nuts? Pay no attention to him. Guardians of the Galaxy was complete crap!..."

As per the normal rules of the internet, this should be the point where someone posts "Are you nuts? Pay no attention to him. Guardians of the Galaxy was complete crap!..." The District 9 argument isn't valid though. That was an entirely new property (yeah, based on a short film that was highly praised.) I was fully aware there was a Guardians of the Galaxy comic. I'd just never heard anybody who was into comics mention needing to read it or that they enjoyed it. That's why I was puzzled. It's good to her positive things about it though, as I hadn't heard anything at all. Edited April 17, 2013 by Mommar Quote
azrael Posted July 21, 2013 Author Posted July 21, 2013 Production art, now that there's an actual cast: Quote
Twoducks Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 As far as films go these days, this is a risky project. I hope for the best. Has Marvel regained the FF4 movie license? A Silver Surfer cameo would be a nice surprise here. Quote

miles316 Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 What character is Karen Gillian supposed to play? Quote
Dangard Ace Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Nebula. She shaved her head for the part. I'm hoping Nova Prime makes a cameo. Somewhere. Quote
azrael Posted July 22, 2013 Author Posted July 22, 2013 Nebula. She shaved her head for the part. I'm hoping Nova Prime makes a cameo. Somewhere. I have heard various reports that certain stars have been cast as key Nova Corps members. Hopefully, they'll make it to the final film. Would be a waste if they didn't use them. Nova suits look like...police uniforms. So no special powers for the Novas? Just people in uniforms? Quote
Duke Togo Posted July 22, 2013 Posted July 22, 2013 Still no announced voice for Rocket Raccoon. Quote
Duke Togo Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 Glenn Close has been announced as playing Nova Prime. Quote
Duke Togo Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Word is spreading that Vin Diesel is playing Groot. No official confirmation, yet. Quote
terry the lone wolf Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 It's going to be interesting seeing Djimon Hounsou playing a Kree, Michael Rooker as Yondu, & Benito Del Toro as the Collector. Djimon for years was campaiging for Black Panther so I guess that's not happening.. Quote
VF-15 Banshee Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 Someone recorded part of the GotG trailer, I'm guessing at SDCC. So then Marvel is like, yeah, that was supposed to happen. https://www.facebook.com/MarvelCinematicUniverse Quote

VF-15 Banshee Posted August 13, 2013 Posted August 13, 2013 And with the quickness, that trailer footage is gone from YT. There's screenshots, though. Quote
