    "He might be your father,
    but he wasn't yo daddy!".
    That line fucking made the movie.

    I thought the empath crying for Drax was a touching moment. Normally, empaths usually handle sadness and tell the audience they are sad lol. He must be reeeally sad inside.

    • @casuallychallenged
      @casuallychallenged Před 7 lety +27

      That was one of the best moments of character development for Drax. Showing how he may seem stoic, and kind of odd, but inside, he has deep and emotional wounds of his loss of his family. All in about a 10 second moment with her touching him and instantly bursting into tears. Loved it.

      hellsong23 this movie did an amazing job showing the characters relationship with each other and showing each character individually when Star Lord is like but he's my family and Gamora was like but I thought you already had your family I was like oh my God

    • @hellsong23
      @hellsong23 Před 7 lety +2

      Agreed. Relationships are an ongoing thing, they don't just have a happy ending at the end of Vol. 1.

    As a testament to how awesome this movie was, my wife DID die from pancreatic cancer just a week before this came out and I still enjoyed it. Gotta admit - there are points where I was triggered but my circumstances shouldn't detract from my thoughts of the movie and she wanted me to see it for the both of us. She loved all the marvel movies. Guardians was her favourite by far. As time went on she was less and less in the mood for movies and didn't see anything from civil war onwards, but she was eager to see Guardians 2. We kept making goals of "make it to this trip, or that event and the one she missed out on was making it to see Guardians 2. I'd even contacted the cinema to see if there was a way to get an advanced screening but it wasn't to be. My kids loved the first one - we just skipped forward till after he was beamed up, but it's going to be hard to skip those parts in this one so will have to delay them seeing it for a few years unfortunately. Will probably go and see it again soon for a re-watch though.

    • @Jack_Stafford
      @Jack_Stafford Před 7 lety +3

      Paul Robinson my sincere condolences my friend. I was very triggered by the first one due to similar circumstances between my mother and myself and actually went in 5 minutes late the next three times I saw it because of that scene. I can't say you ever get over it you just learn how to get through it in a better way, and I guess movies can be a part of the healing. Best wishes pal.

      @montanarandall3126 Před 7 lety +1

      tbh i thought peter quill was going to use his cool space helmet to survive the vacuum of space like he did in the first movie, but he never used it although he used it many times in the fight right before.

    • @TankensteinMonster
      @TankensteinMonster Před 7 lety +3

      IIRC there is a close up shot after the helmet got smashed fighting Ego.

    • @jonaskick9225

      Doom which was stupid because it was digital/holographic every time he's used it except when it needed to get "broken" for plot reasons. HUGE pothole which made the death meaningless.

    • @matthewvoss6012
      @matthewvoss6012 Před 7 lety

      Doom His dead was well done. It also showed the audience that James Gunn isn't scared to kill off an important character. I also liked that he didn't end the movie with a joke, everyone left the theater with there hearts a little broken.

  • @TheRealGunfish
    @TheRealGunfish Před 7 lety +19

    that Mary Poppins line was the fucking play of the game.

  • @KantosKan
    @KantosKan Před 7 lety +65

    They referenced their own issue of being a "middle" story when Quill and Gomora are arguing about having an unspoken thing and Peter says that Cheers had to delay the romance and meaning so that the episodes could continue to build the tension and flirt, because once the romance is solidified the story arc is over. It's a meta reference to their own movie being a tension builder and not a completer.

    I'm really bummed out by the loss of Michael Rooker's character. I've loved him since "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer". He's one of the most criminally under rated actor working today. I hope he's still on contract with Disney/Marvel so he could perhaps show up in a Star Wars film or maybe play a different character in a Marvel film but he's got so much prosthetic make-up on that he's unrecognizable. Here's to having unreasonable dreams...

    • @CouchCit

I'm glad someone else brought up the sound issue because I was wondering if it was just how the video loaded on my end. I'm also guessing it's because of where they shot the video this time.

  • @IH8YH
    @IH8YH Před 7 lety +104

    my favorite moment in the movie and one brilliant piece of acting is when normally totally cool and goofy Peter Quill says "you killed my mother" to Ego full and Hatred and anger for his Dad. so damn good.
    also I totally agree that Rooker should get an oscar nom as best supporting actor for this! RIP YONDU

    • @Sean-Correa-Production
      @Sean-Correa-Production Před 7 lety +23

      IH8YH I love his reaction to when Ego says "sorry I had to put that tumor in her brain" and everything stops for peter and he just starts firing his gun so many times into Ego not even giving a shit what he said before about him being his father or anything all he had to say was that he killed his mom and he flipped the switch so quick.

      One of my favorite scenes in the first movie was when Quill yells at the guy in the prison listening to his Walkman and he says "Hooked on a Feeling, Blue Swede! That song belongs to me!"
      Hurts my heart man. So do Rocket's emotional scenes in the first and second movies.

  • @The_Cold_Slither
    @The_Cold_Slither Před 7 lety +6

    I did not love Vol. 2 as much as Vol. 1, but I still loved it. The reason why I still love it is because the shit has fucking heart. It has a soul. Drax was a dick! But when he's sitting there with Mantis, and he's talking about his family, and she touches him and he just starts crying. It's like damn, he is really hurting inside. And when they're about to leave Ego, and Peter isn't there, and he's asking where is Peter, for all the shit he talks he has made a connection with this group of individuals. Then when you see how he holds Baby Groot at the end, you can see that he was a dad.

  • @jordanmcmichael6682

      I did as well. I disagreed with Kevin and Mark's sentiment, I think this one had more meat and interesting dynamics going on than the first movie. First movie was a good set up, this one was a good film.

      @Teaniinja Před 7 lety +7

      Jordan McMichael I did too. I love the character growth and deeper development of everyone's relationships, especially Yondu. The scenery was also far more beautiful and interesting. and finally I am a big Kurt Russell fan, and his part in this movie made me happy.

  • @julieharden2433
    @julieharden2433 Před 7 lety +11

    While I love this movie, The Winter Soldier is still the best 2nd movie. It's actually the best MCU movie. But, GotG Vol 2 soundtrack is one of the best soundtracks - of any movie ever (along with Almost Famous and A Knight's Tale).

    • @JSSTyger
      @JSSTyger Před 7 lety

      T1 has a lot more action than it is given credit for when you consider its ALL action from the bar scene to the end.

    • @Kasigi03
      @Kasigi03 Před 7 lety +2

      Yes, but it was paced like a serial killer, horror type movie. It had a gloomy atmosphere and feel. T2 just went, here's our balls and they RULE. Same with Alien and Aliens. Nothing wrong with either, just two VERY different movies that somehow matched their predecessors. Very hard to do with a sequel, though lately, sequels have been upping their originals. TDK, Capt. America: Winter Soldier, etc.

    • @JSSTyger
      @JSSTyger Před 7 lety +1

      Well...Arnold was saying "here's my balls and they rule" throwing hillbillies out of a phone booth, throwing a guy through a wall, shotgun killing the gunshop owner, owning an entire police station, etc. That stuff is BAD ASS and some of it is even hilarious (because, Arnold...). The real difference is T2 was big and had groundbreaking (SFX). I will also say it made Arnold kid friendly. For a long time T2 was my fav movie but not after I finally saw T1.

    • @Kasigi03
      @Kasigi03 Před 7 lety

      T2 also kept that great narrative and storytelling from the first. People forget how deep T2 really is amongst its peers of action movies. SFX are still ahead of most films today.

    Yondu's Southern "Country Boy" Accent is the best thing they could have done with that character and Michael Rooker's delivery is what sells it the first film and makes it work in Vol 2. This is definitely Yondu's movie and it works.

    I'm glad that they finally explained Nebula to me. Having not read the comics, I didn't know the story about how or why she was half cybernetics yet was a "sister" to Gamora, so this was some nice filler.

    I really loved the connection between getting his first two "soundtracks" from his mom and being able to have the next one be from his dad (Yondu). Its a touching idea that we carry parts of our parents with us even after they are gone.

  • @jaybell7838
    @jaybell7838 Před 7 lety

    1) We really needed a flashback with the mom. We needed Peter to show us how much he loved his mom, not just tell us, when that's his key motivation at the end.
    2) They tried to give Yondu the Snape treatment, but we had 8 movies with Snape and that revelation scene was far stronger than the stuff with Yondu.
    3) Marvel manages even be able to make a one-off villain out of a living effing planet. I like these movies, but I'm so over the villain of the week formula.

    @joeycruz7667 Před 7 lety

    For all the movie sequels that claim Empire Strikes Back as their primary inspiration, Guardians Vol.2 is the first that actually matches the most daring aspect of Empire - that it's non-linear story without a clear narrative thrust. Both start with the end of an adventure and pull the heroes together in the end, but the middles are very meandery, with the main protagonist going to an isolated planet for introspective soul-searching while the other half of the family has a series of misadventures with the antagonists. Empire Strikes Back is guilty of everything Marc criticizes Guardians 2 for. :)

    Gamora's trauma is not that she has a father who she F-ing hates and has to break away from. Nebula and Gamora were abducted by Thanos who then imposed himself as their father, abused and turned them into weapons. Gamora asks nebula to travel with her and together help save other little girls from suffering their fate. She does not spend this movie trying to work out her "daddy issues" She left that behind during the last film. She is now living the best life she can and doing the best she can for others after surviving her abduction and abuse.

    Her arc with her sister and how it progresses amounts to, "you need redemption, _I don't_." I thought that was damn daring. There is no real happy ending for those two, it's too late. That's bold.
    Nebula looks to me like she's 100% ready to die trying to kill Thanos. If she's going to die, I truly hope she goes like a boss. Nebula is hardcore; purple cyborg waifu af.

    For me, that scene towards the end of the movie where Rocket tells the crew they have to leave Ego's Planet, is my favorite scene of the film.

    Question: Kevin which movie that you made which one was your favourite

  • @casuallychallenged
    @casuallychallenged Před 7 lety

    My only problem with Guardians 2 was the tone of the movie was "off". I loved the movie, I think it was very good, but it could have been great if some of the "sweet" and sad and bittersweet moments had not been undercut by the constant snark.
    There was never a moment in the movie where there was not a joke ready to take your emotional state and squirt it with water from a flower.
    The only exception being one AMAZING Drax moment with him and Mantis that truly gave me an understanding of who Drax is (you will know it when you see it). Other than that, every scene had to have a jokey element and not every scene needed that. Had the snark been toned down for a few of those moments, had I been "allowed" to smile sweetly, or shed a tear, I would have enjoyed it much much more.
    As it is, I still think the movie was a fun experience and a departure (in the best way) of the typical formula of the comic book movie.
    Also, as Kevin mentioned, the music just did not grab me in the same way as the first movie. It was fitting in the scene, but I left the movie not remembering any of it. Where I am still humming music from the first movie every once in a while.
    Looking forward to the big showdown between Thanos and Drax. And Nebula too... maybe they will fight each other over who gets to kill Thanos first :)

  • @tofu_golem
    @tofu_golem Před 7 lety

    A lot of this movie seemed to be about bad fathers.
    Gamora and Nebula were trying to kill each other because Thanos was a terrible father. Yondu didn't deliver Peter because he found out Ego was killing his own children. Yondu was himself a pretty flawed substitute father figure.

    Just got home from my second showing.. It seems the popular thing to do(many critics and fans) is say Guardians 2 was good/great but not as good as the first. I could kinda see what they were saying, but after my second showing, NO Doubt about it to me there are many elements of Vol. 2 that are flat out better then the superb Vol. 1 . I can't choose which I like better and that's saying a Lot!

  • @adampoll4977
    @adampoll4977 Před 7 lety

    Just ONE of the many great things about both Guardians movies is how well they stand up to repeated viewings and how much more you pick up each time. Gunn seems to have fallen into his perfect environment with deeper meaning and emotion wrapped in some of the most gorgeous eye-candy to hit the big screen. That and his knack for matching the musical cues so perfectly and yet not always blatantly. That music in the scene with Rocket and Yondu - I could watch that rather murderous and near psychopathic over and over, chuckling every time and then realise what just happened and how subversive that scene is. I am really not so keen to see the Guardians handled by anyone else or see them rubbing up with the Avengers - but Gunn apparently has creative control of the characters sooooo maybe...

    Gun did some excellent character development this time around which worked SO perfectly. I was worried the humor would fall flat or feel forced but it was just plain spot on. Admittedly there were two jokes during the very grand final action set piece that didn't work as well -- one went on way too long and the other was ill placed and undermined the momentum of a great battle scene but those are quibbles. 4.5 / 5 stars.

His starship (RIP Milano), 3. His brand new god powers, and 4. Two dads. And the cherry on top is that good ole god (lower case g) dad gave his mom brain cancer. All the supervillains are going after moms lately. Bucky killing Maria Stark, Lex trying to take out Martha, and now Ego, with a move Eric Cartman would be proud of, giving his river lily brain cancer. Yondu was right. That guy was a real jackass.

    I liked this better than Winter Soldier...but then again..I like the less traditional movies anyway. Winter Soldier felt very traditional to me. Not like super cliche or anything, just very standard. The twists didn't excite me or change much of anything to me...SHIELD was always sketchy so the Hydra twist didn't surprise me. With Guardians Vol.2, it was heavily foreshadowed and I kinda knew what was going to happen for most of the movie, but every beat of the movie had so much heart. The characters seemed so much more real than any of the Earth-based heroes. I have a hard time comparing the 2 Guardians movies to choose a favorite. But without a second thought I can consider Guardians my favorite set of MCU movies.

He's completely blinded from all the many weaknesses of Guardians 2... at one stage he calls the movie 'perfection'. That's ridic.
