Hello, best bar in the world!

ALL THE THINGS FRIDAY: GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY

This movie came out in US theaters last weekend, but I realize not everybody has had a chance to see it yet. For those of you who have, what are you thoughts? Loved it? Hated it? Wondered why the raccoon talked like a 1940s gangster?
Was Baby Dancing Groot not the greatest thing ever?

So come one, come all, come flail!

Please note that on this post all spoilers are fair game, so read the comments at your own risk! Also, if you haven't gotten your prompts in for the Promptathon, you might want to mosey over and do that, as we're shutting that post down very soon.

Things to remember:
1) Always label NSFW (Not Safe For Work) stuff in the title and post under a cut.
2) Fic and artwork needs to have a rating and warnings (or you can say that you’ve chosen not to use warnings).
3) For people with annoying internet connections, say in the title if a comment is graphic/images/gif-heavy and post picspams under a cut.
4) Have a damn good time! (Because if that’s not happening then this post has clearly failed.)

Yeah there were the little things, and that was fine, but it still didn't hit the emotional level of any of the other Marvel films. I'm not saying there was nothing there, because clearly there was, but for me it didn't have the same impact.

Agreed. The emotional stuff was pretty much limited to phone-in-your-tragic-backstory tropes, but that was outweighed for me by the space-operatic fun. It reminded me so much of some of the Keith Laumer/Eric Frank Russell/Fritz Leiber sci fi I grew up with (with elements of the first Star Wars trilogy, or am I the only one who thinks that?) -- how could I do anything but love it?
