But that wasn't a tree joke, it's a fairly legitimate question.

Yeah, don't bark at him for asking a legitimate question. If you don't like it you can leave!

 

[Chewy]

We don't take kindly to tree talk of any sort round these here parts

 

[craigdbfan]

Wood you fellas please take this somewhere else? A lounge maybe?

 

[Chewy]

So who's pick up Bendis' Guardians of the Galaxy Origins: Star-Lord tomorrow?

Craig, can we make a GOTG forum lounge?

I will because I'm a sucker. I'm not expecting much though.

Absolutely.

 

[Darthphere]

Absolutely.

Cool.

Has Chris Pratt made any sort of public appearance since being cast as Star Lord? I haven't heard anything from him yet. Usually you have actors going on about how they loved the character they're portraying since they were a wee lad(which I reaaaaally doubt is the case with Pratt).

If they are going to have him cameo in IM 3, he's going to have to slim down a bit. I mean we're probably not going to get a full body shot of Star Lord, but it would be kinda funny seeing Fat Pratt in Iron Man 3 and then skinny in shape Pratt in GotG.

Well, Star Lord is half-alien. Maybe his cool alien powers include the ability to lose and gain huge amounts of weight within seconds.

I plan on picking it up this week! Very excited!

Take this with a grain on salt, but El Maybe's last tweet is "MARVEL FANBOYS! There have been some updates on GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY. Expect breaking news shortly." If we don't get some by today I'm calling BS. Literally anyone can go "Big news on this movie thats in production, soon, I can't tell you now, but remember, you heard it here first!" and then when something hits they can be like "See, I told you last week that something big was gonna get announced!"

Today? At least give him 2 days. "Shortly" doesn't have to mean in a matter of minutes/hours.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

^I would imagine some news is going to be announced soon though, X-Men DOFP is only out 2 months before this yet they have most of their cast locked, so I think we will get Drax and Gamora in quick succession and soon, at least thats what I hope.

 

[CastlesInTheAir]

If he has a big scoop wouldn't he make an effort to put it out as soon as possible before anyone else? It sounds to me like he doesn't have a scoop yet but he wants us to think he does. I don't know, this "Marvel insider" BS just frustrates me.

Like that fat/skinny mutant in X3. Lmao

 

[Mr. Dent]

I was defending LR a few weeks ago but even I'm starting to get tired of Mayimbe's supposed weekly "big scoops". It feels like he's only coming up with these scoops for more publicity for LR and their mail list. >.>

I'm not saying he's making it up, but it comes off as feeling like he posts any news he gets on the possible concept of films or casting and calls them "big scoops" for the sake of publicity.

 

[Spider-Vader]

Star-Lord possibly appearing in IM3 will make me geekgasm so hard, though the Wakanda reference might be even cooler.

Marvel really needs to get on the ball with casting announcements already. I want to know who will be Drax, Gamora & especially Rocky!

 

[Mr. Dent]

I doubt they'll keep the Wakanda reference in the final cut of the film (if true).

When I hear Mayimbe and LR the first thing thing I do is:

 

[Dark Raven]

I wouldn't mind if Pratt appears as Peter Quill in a pre-Star Lord form in IM3. He could be like Buck Rogers before he ended up in the 25th century. Here it could be before he ends up with the Guardians. That way he could potentially be a fat Pratt, but then slim down for GOTG.
