One thing that made Avengers stand out for me among past Superhero films, is the way that most of the team seemed to share some sort of moment with every other member of the team, and each had a dynamic. There was never the feeling of one or two characters with a bunch of warm bodies (see the X-series.)
So what character dynamics would you want to see in GoTG? This is my list:
Starlord and Gamora:
There should be flirtatious overtones, but it should never evolve into true love. They can even knock boots, but Gamora is just not relationship material. They should share a lot of banter, given both characters are traditionally banter heavy and witty.
If Gamora comes under any scrutiny due to her relationship with Thanos, Starlord should be the one that goes up to bat for her, with Drax being the one who objects to her presence, given his history with Thanos.
Starlord and Drax:
Depending on how center Starlord's original Marvel Premiere origin is to the film (his mother getting killed by aliens being his motivation to explore other worlds), Drax and Starlord should bond over their quest for vengeance, with Drax taking a mentoring role similar to the one he took with Nova in Annihilation.
If Quill's quest for vengeance is not center to the film, the two characters should clash at first. Quill taking on a role similar to Stark in the Avengers, or Kirk in the Star Trek reboot, with Drax filling the role of the much more serious character.
Drax and Gamora
They should be sort of different sides of the same coin. Both are warriors, both have had the course of their lives dictated by the actions of Thanos. I'd like to see the quipy Gamora and the sullen Drax as unlikely close comrades, a platonic odd couple of sorts, with Drax looking at Gamora as a bit of a daughter figure (adapting his relationship with Phyla from the comics a bit.)
I would prefer to see Gamora's relationship with Thanos as a mid-movie reveal, rather than something Drax know ahead of time. This would cause him to doubt her, and cause a split in their friendship. Eventually Gamora would prove herself to Drax, and win his trust back, for good.
Starlord and Rocket Raccoon
As more of a mascot character, I don't see Rocket having incredibly complex relationships with any of the other characters, but he and Peter Quill should hit it off instantly. They should have tons of quips, and Rocket should serve as Quill's drinking buddy. Basically, I'd want the relationship lifted right from the comics.
Rocket Raccoon and Groot
Lift the relationship straight from the comics. Inseparable allies. Rocket of course, is the only one who understands anything Groot says, and translates "I Am Groot" to the rest of the team.
