Guardians of the Galaxy Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2: General Discussion & Speculation Thread

[Broseph44]

Concept art looks great. Can't wait to see more t:

Is it me or does Yondu have an actual sail-fin there, as opposed to just a small metallic mohawk-thing from the first movie?

Good eye, can't really see it in that concept art but yes Yondu's mohawk will sport a new look in Vol 2. It'll actually be a couple large fins, much larger than his old do in Vol 1.

Here is a comics history of Mantis:

The movie version will be an alien instead of a Vietnamese prostitute. The Celestial Madonna aspect of the character will probably be ignored.

LOVING the look of Mantis, she looks spot on, had a feeling Gunn would add her she seems right up his street.

 

[TheVileOne]

I think with Nebula, it's more of a frenemy thing.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Not happy that Groot is apparently growing at a glacial pace. Baby Groot was cute, but I didn't need a whole movie of baby Groot.

I'm sure he will grow in the movie.

yeah In The Final Moment with The Team and His Buddy Rocket are in Big Trouble we see a Big Christmas Tree Again

I would've liked if they had the Guardians uniforms for this movie as they have become an established team. Still really exicted for this movie! But after the Star-Lord concept art from comic con I still can't believe they didn't use that as his movie look...

100% agree.

The concept art looks great. I wonder if the rumors of Ego the Living Planet being in this are accurate. That one site that reported it seems to have been on the mark so far.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

Hopefully we will find out at comic-con next week.

 

[jaqua99]

Concept art looks good. Seems like the movie is really starting to fit into itself aesthetically.

 

[Broseph44]

Who is ready for the Marvel Studios panel? Starts soon guys! Anyone else in here? Let's get pumped! GOTG 2!

Present Day Me: "When you grow up, you'll see Ego in a movie and he'll be played by Kurt Russell."

Just compiled a description of the footage from comingsoon's live blog. A little disappointed that is not online

We see Rocket and Yondu being thrown in a cell by the Ravagers. They're too be handed over to the Kree.
"You won't live long after that," one taunts.
Another has little groot in a birdcage. He wants to know if he can smash Groot with a rock.
"It's way too adorable for that," says another Ravager.
"Can I at least poke his eyes out?"
We see a circle of Ravager around Groot (who has an adorable little red suit), forcing him to fight something
Little Groot comes to Rocket and Yondu in the night. He's like a little, little kid, intellectually. He's shy and wide eyed
Yondu wants him to go into the place where a bunch of Ravagers are sleeping and steal a prototype red fin, like the one he wore on his head in the first film
Groot returns with Yondu's underwear and Yondu says, "That's not it!"
He comes back again with a severed thumb. Then a desk. Then an electronic eye that Yondu says belongs to one of the Ravagers. ("He takes it out when he sleeps," says Yondu.)
"Leave the eye," says Rocket. "Why?" asks Yondu.
"Because he's going to wake up," laughs Rocket, falling over he's so amused, "And he's not going to know where his eye is!"
Finally, Groot comes back with the Finn. Yondu puts it on his head and he has his whistling spear thing back. As Jay and the American's "Come a Little Bit Closer" plays, Yondu, Rocket and Groot walk in slow motion through the ship. The spear thing slaughters EVERYONE.
Ravagers are falling from above decks as the music plays

We see the Guardians on the hunt for an "interdimensional beast". Gamora is carrying a giant gun
"Is that a rifle?" Starlord asks. Gamora looks at him like he's an idiot.
"I just thought a sword was your thing," he says. "Don't look at me like I'm the idiot. You're the one being inconsistent."
There's a scene in the trailer where Starlord calls Rocket "a stupid raccoon"
"Hey!" shouts Rocket. "Don't call me a raccoon!"
"I'm sorry," says Peter. "I didn't mean raccoon. I meant Trash Panda."
Rocket is confused, as is Drax. "Is that better?"
"No," Peter laughs. "It's worse. It's much worse!"
Russell's Ego lands in a spaceship and introduces himself as Peter's father. He says that constructed himself in a human form.
"Did you make a penis?" Drax asks.
Frustrated, Peter tries to shut him up.
But Ego doesn't mind. "Yes, Drax. I made a penis."
We also hear Fleetwood Mac's The Chain, so we're slowly getting an Awesome Mix Vol. 2 track listing!

I guess we got our answer.

 

[samsnee]

The Ravagers grew on me in the last movie and they did sort of help save the day. Can't believe Yondu would slaughter all them just like that.

 

[Lighthouse]

Yondu's gone full mohawk!
