Guardians of the Galaxy Guardians of the Galaxy: General Discussion & Speculation Thread - Part 2

I think those scars on Drax look way better than tattoos would. One of the best visual alterations to a character's physical appearance since Nightcrawler's angelic skin symbols in X2.

We might not even see those guys in the movie. This is all just concept art.

I realize that, I was merely admiring the artwork and the vibe it gives off.

It changes the way someone like myself looks at the potential of this movie. The comic artwork never did it for me.

I'm encouraged by the fact that props people from Star Wars are working on this film and the fact that right across the hallway is the Star Wars franchise at Disney. So they can draw on shared concepts. I just hope they don't think they can get away with a tight budget. If it's a space epic you can't get stingy.

That cantina pic could be the gotg getting info. The cube could be like a holographic message or a data cube. Ask the wrong question and all hell breaks loose.

Also noticed a third ship in the other pic. Looks like quill's ship. It's over the dip in the big ship. A smaller ship is up there

I hope they make Gamora a little more...attractive and less alien. She looks like a two armed blue version of Sheeva from Mortal Kombat.

I'm hoping we get the metal plating look from the first concept honestly.

 

[misjuevos]

So far I like what I see. Aliens and space ships.

 

[Surfer]

I just got my MCU Box set in the mail a few minutes ago. I will try to let people know what all is included in a little bit.

Also, another pic has just been confirmed (same source) as being for GOTG:

I'm most curious about this one....

 

[misjuevos]

looks like they are scanning, searching for something

Where's all of the Thor stuff?

Not saying it IS but, that field surrounding that dude reminds me of this...

I dunno, she looks a helluva lot more believable in the cantina pic as a mean ***** who can rip your heart out with her bare hands and feed it to you. Makes Gamora more of a badass than the pornstar she is in the 2008 comic, or the generic Mass Effect Miranda Lawson that she is in the 2013 comic.

I particularly like the look she's giving to the (soon-to-be-dead) dumbass who's grabbing her arm in that picture: "No. You did NOT just grab my arm...."

 

[Doc Ock]

Where's all of the Thor stuff?

Thats what I'm wondering!

 

[Surfer]

Okay, I couldn't check everything out, but from what I could see there was "Unfortunately" very little phase 2 products included in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Box Set. I did not even recieve the 4 pieces of Production Art that released today, which was rumored as being included in the set. So, unless it is hidden somewhere's I don't see it. I was hoping the disc with Shield Initiative would contain something, but from what I can tell it seems dedicated to Phase one material. Once again there could be something I am missing or maybe even something hidden, but don't see anything there. I checked a few of the normal discs "Captain America", "Thor" and "Marvel's The Avengers" and mostly everything from what I can see looks packed with phase one material, but once again not seeing anything on phase 2. About the only thing taking place after the Avengers I saw was a one shot on the Avengers disc called [BLACKOUT]"Item 47"[/BLACKOUT] and what is interesting about this One Shot to me is that the Shield Agents discuss

Spoiler

Coulson as if they also think he is dead, stating that they will "Miss Him", and it's interesting since we know that he will be returning to the SHIELD TV Show that is supposed to take place after the Avengers

So, really from what I can tell there is very little Phase 2 products included in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Box Set from what I can tell. So, in all a bit disappointing on that front, but the Phase One Material included is really cool and I needed to get all of these on Blue Ray anyways so I can't say I am disatisfied with the purchase anyways. However, if someone is buying it to obtain extra phase 2 content, unfortuntately I would say from what I can see so far this looks to be a pass.

Also, I didn't see the Iron Man 3 Behind the scenes footage that was released today that was also rumored to be included in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Box Set, although I haven't looked through the Iron Man and Iron Man 2 discs yet, so it seems still possible.

The fact that she looks nothing like comic book Gamora though is a little disheartening. I'm hoping that's either A) not Gamora or B) not the look they go with.

 

[cherokeesam]

The bloggers at geekzenith, who scooped these pictures, said that their source stated specifically that all but the Winter Soldier picture are from GOTG.

 

[James_Smith]

No. Check the update on the link I posted. The 'site which must not be named' was incorrect.

She's a bit bluer but Gamora did have bluish-green skin in some of her earlier appearances. And aside from the skin color and forehead markings it's not too dissimilar.

 

[Destructus86]

Man, that concept art looks pretty dang cool. It really does look like a sci-fi epic.

There's a certain method you have to use to get the code and info on how to view the preview of phase 2 and such.

 

[Mr. Dent]

That was more inkers ****ing up her color I think. Starlin originally designed her to be green, and she was, in the Strange Tales/Warlock issues that she first appeared in.

It looks nothing like her. She looks far too mutant/ alien.
