Guardians of the Galaxy Guardians of the Galaxy: General Discussion & Speculation Thread - Part 3

[elsewhere]

Well here's to hoping. Also, was I the only one hoping for a big puppet Groot instead of CGI. I mean I knew it wouldn't happen, but I was just wanting it to.

I'm always hoping for more practical effects.

 

[Son of Coul]

Animatronic Groot would be awesome, but yeah I don't see that happening.

Hopefully there is a press release within a week; this my most ainticipated Phase 2 movie so I'm just hoping for a bit of anything.

 

[Wontkins]

I really don't think they're going to wait until after filming is complete to add 2 MAIN characters into the movie well into Post Production, but thats just, like, my opinion, man.

 

[Norrin Parker]

A puppet/animatronic for Groot would be so cool!

 

[VulcanVader]

I'm sure, since Gunn is directing, that we will see some practical aliens in the movie... but Groot better will cgi.

I loved that movie as a kid. I saw it years before I saw Star Wars and I remember how pissed I was because Star Wars stole so many elements from the Ice Pirates t:

Servus;-) oh star wars stole from alot more movies than this one;-) i'm just watching the movie now and the memories are priceless...yes i loved the movie as well ....great time it was t:

 

[Matt Mortem]

I think Groot could work with an animtronic. GDT made the Faun work fine in Pan's Labyrinth on a nineteen million dollar budget.

 

[VulcanVader]

According to the twitter of one of the extras (I think) the setting of monday's shooting was "planet Kyln". I assume it's the prison.

But no press release....

Makes sense.
If this turns out to be an intergalactic cops 'n' robbers, as seems to be the case, you'd expect to see the galaxy's strongest supermax prison in there somewhere. I'd be willing to bet the Guardians serve as its "guests" at some point.

 

[Crimson King]

Here's hoping that this is the only "breakout" scenario in Phase 2.

 

[VulcanVader]

Yes, they were casting extras for a prison scene months ago I think...

Were there any other tweets? Some guys were trying to inform me of his "Kyln" tweet(s) earlier and ended up using his Twitter handle while also mentioning GOTG. In other words, the extra deleted the tweets.

I'm sure Gunn/Marvel Studios would've tried to put a quietus to that in a hurry. Gives "meat" to the rumor, too.

I only read this one:

Monday I was on the planet Kyln... Today I'm in a dole office circa 1949...

 

[marvel_freshman]

Thanks! I guess we shouldn't expect anything else interesting or GOTG related from him anymore. BTW, @ThorMoviesFan brought something else to my attention.

This guy is also an extra in GOTG and his role is listed as "Xander." I'm thinking he's a part of the Nova Corps, and "Xander" is refers to his race. I remember some Thor 2 extras on that site list their roles in Dark Elves.

 

[VulcanVader]

According to imdb, actress Melia Kreiling http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4218810/ is also in the movie. I guess is a minor role...

Yeah, most likely Xandarians. Further proof of the Nova Corps.
Just wish we could get some official news.

[Mr. Dent]

Vin Diesel for Quicksilver.

 

[Son of Coul]

Maybe he's voicing the Grootmeister

 

[Scarecrow_King]

Vin Diesel for Quicksilver.

Ew. No thanks.
