Check out Geetha’s sneak peek of Guardians of the Galaxy! She is recommending it as the best bet at the movies this weekend!
The star of this week’s movie line-up is definitely GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, and I’m happy to say that it’s looking grand.
All those who wanted FIREFLY to come back (and even the vast remainder) will be hugely entertained by this, Marvel’s space opera. Think Indiana Jones leading a motley crew across the galaxy in an effort to save it from the clutches of some evil madman.
Disney was smart enough to keep the plot simple, leaving the twists and turns to the chase itself. Peter Quill (Chris Pratt, the dumbass from PARKS AND RECREATION) steals an alien artifact, and then finds out that Ronan The Accuser (Lee Pace) wants to use it to rain down death and destruction.
Hence the escapade with his gang of freaks comprised of Gamora (Zoe Saldana, as a princess escaping from her dad Thanos—a Marvel villain), warrior Drax (Dave Bautista), gun-toting raccoon Rocket (voice by Bradley Cooper), and walking tree-humanoid Groot (Vin Diesel). It’s better than AVENGERS, so you’re guaranteed a good time. And if you watch the 3-D version, you’ll be even happier. The kids will be thrilled. All in all, a win-win situation. What’s not to like?

Check the Milano, Yo!
Can’t wait to see this! I love that James Gunn started out working on schlocky indie films at Troma, and now he’s directing summer blockbusters! And similarly Chris Pratt, the doughy “dumbass from Parks and Recreation,” is now a big movie star and heartthrob. It just feels like good things are happening to good people and that makes me happy.

Guardians of the Galaxy technically takes place in a world that, many light-years away, also contains Captain America, Iron Man, Nick Fury, and their various allies, lovers, and foes. And, at some future date (perhaps around the third Avengers installment), Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) and his pals may end up intersecting with the behemoth of cross-platform storytelling and branding that is the Marvel Cinematic Universe
