The Easter Egg Thread (Guardians Edition)

Thanos.

Starlords

Cosmo.

The collector breaking down the infinity gauntlet to the t.

The only ones I seen so far that I remember.

 

That Infinity Guantlet scene was so cool.

 

No Howard the Duck?

 

Howard the Duck was indeed there. In one of the glass cases of The Collector.

Also Cosmo the space dog was there in one of the glass cases too and he was growling at Rocket lol. He eventually go out of the glass though and is roaming free now! Maybe in the sequel he will get a role

 

There is a Chitauri in one of the glass boxes of The Collector.

 

Here is Peter Serafinowicz character from the comics:

Garthan Saal. He's referred to as Denarian Saal. Denarian being his rank or position in the Nova Corps

 

List of Easter eggs I found:

Spoiler

- There is a Chitauri in The Collector's collection
- Cosmo is in the collection. He looks exactly as he does in the comics
- We see a full Celestial at one point
- We see the origin of the Infinity gems and we see some brief visuals of their later appearances as the Aether and the Tesseract, none of the current forms of the others though.
- Nathan Fillion is the giant brute that gets his nostrils violated by Groot in prison
- There is a Kree ambassador that briefly appears that is played by Tomas Arana
- Christopher Fairbank, the kooky scientist from The Fifth Element who rebuilds Leeloo's body has a featured role in the film.
- Ronan's minions are not Kree but actually Sakaarans. Their ships are called Necrocrafts.
- Peter Serafinowicz, longtime character actor from Shaun of the Dead, Look Around You, Spaced, voice of Darth Maul in Star Wars, plays Garthan Saal, previously Nova Omega in the comics.

 

I remember seeing one of the Dark Elves in a case too. It was difficult to look at every case because there were so many during that scene.

 

I thought I was the only one that noticed that too.

 

Glad I'm not alone. Lol. I don't remember seeing a Chitauri at all, though. Or Howard the Duck.

 

I definitely have to keep my eyes peeled during that scene

 

It was hard to take everything in because I was so excited to be watching the movie. I can't wait until Friday so I can see it again.

 

Yeah I think I'm gonna see it Thursday and then Friday again with some other people. My first viewing will be just for enjoyment, and on my second I can be on the lookout. lol

 

Lol that's how you have to do it with this movie. Especially when they're with The Collector or when they're in Knowhere.

 

Saw a leak of the after credits ...

Spoiler

Howard the Duck has a speaking role. He berates the Collector.

Of course of all the things to leak :/

 

That's...it? Disappointed, if true.

EDIT: Just saw it. Oh well.

 

Is it the second after credits scene? Kinda like what Thor had. Perhaps there a mid credits one beforehand.

 

The one at the very end of the credits is usually just for fun. Or that one is the mid credits one and the end credits is something more special.

 

It's varied.

Avengers - mid-credits scene was Thanos. End credits scene was the comedic shawarma gag.

Iron Man 3 - no mid credits scene. End credits scene was just a jokey thing with Banner and Tony.

Thor 2 - mid-credits scene was the Collector. End credits scene had Thor returning to Earth to be with Jane and also the Jotunheim beast running around London and chasing pigeons

Captain America 2 - mid-credits scene was Hydra, Quicksilver, and Scarlet Witch. End credits scene was Bucky/Winter Soldier going to the Smithsonian. Nothing comedic.

 

Yep so has it been confirmed if GOTG has a mid and end credits. Or just the comedic one like IM3.

 

Broseph44, it has mid-credits and end credits one.

Mid-credits one was at my screening. James Gunn announced that end credits scene comes out with the actual movie.

 

Going back further:

Iron Man - post-credits scene only with Nick Fury

Incredible Hulk - mid-credits scene only with Tony Stark, no post-credits scene

Iron Man 2 - post-credits scene with Coulson and Thor's hammer

Thor - end credits scene with Loki, Cube, Selvig, and Fury

Captain America - post-credits teaser trailer for The Avengers

 

Alright cool so we know we are still getting something else besides
