Showing the wife “the Last Dragon” for the first time.

me: you know in LMFAO sexy and I know when he says “like Bruce Leroy I got the glow yo?” This is what that’s from.

then Shōgun (the villain) shows up and she asks, “oh is this like the Shōgun book you’ve been reading?”

which i get the reasoning, but it’s hilarious.

I’ve read a lot of DC and Marvel comics, but never the original GOTG. From what I recall, this version is completely different from the original comic version and James Gunn basically created new personalities and storyline for the MCU. While it worked for this movie, I do think it set the tone for other failures where this method did not work (Moon Knight, for example). I actually used to be really into comics and indie comics until about 2016: I went back to university and the Dc/Marvel comics went hella woke at that time so when I did pick up new issues once Rebirth started they were terribly written. I eventually just stopped reading new comics entirely due to the quality drop. From The New 52 to Rebirth (and likewise whatever was going on with Marvel).

OG Marvel had some great movies. Blade 1-2 are classics. But even the OG MCU is killer.

Apparently Iron Man (1) started filming without a completed script. Every day before they shot each scene, Jon Favreau, Jeff Bridges, and RDJ would be in the trailer writing dialogue and calling up friends like Ron Howard and asking them for advice on dialogue lol.

I don’t remember which one, but one of those three said it was the most expensive “student film” ever made.
Original GOTG was a team based on the planets in the solar system. I was a kid who loved scifi and comics, so target audience.
