Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3: The Search for Gamorra

There are no stakes in any movie because they’re all made up stories with actors playing make belief.

For FUCK’S sake, if the deaths that OBVIOUSLY happened are retconned, then what were the stakes for this movie??

“His character has had fewer and fewer things to do with every appearance he makes...”

Uh, Ant-Man is confirmed to take place before Infinity War. Spider-Man Homecoming 2 is the first film dedicated to dealing with the fallout of Infinity War/Avengers 4.

Yes, they did. Let’s just say these characters and the Quantum Realm may have a lot to say about and connect the proceedings. Plenty to care about here, and this article subject is pretty pointless.

Do some people really believe that all those that ‘died’ will remain dead in the next film?

That was legit disturbing.

Yep, but oh what wonderful dialogue it is (I watch with the CC on so I don’t miss anything)! Not only does any seafaring tale remind me of Moby Dick, but the dialogue in this particular show reminds me of how Melville wrote...archaic to our eyes and ears but beautiful and worthy of our close attention.

Heh. I had just described this show to my buddy as : “kind of maddening cause the cast is seemingly 25% dudes who you’ve seen & recognize from other things and 75% dudes who all look way too much alike, and half the dialog is muttered through thick accents.”, so I’m glad to see I wasn’t the only one tested. I’d also…

Despite barely knowing Jopson, I legit clapped when he got promoted. Akin to Band of Brothers, the show and its actors have done a commendable job of making me care about characters with even little screen time.

May he die surrounded by nobody, loved by no one.

HOLY SHIT.

The younger version of Madi was so convincingly scary that I think they might just have found a feral six year old, given her a fake knife, and told her to try to kill Eliza Taylor when they filmed that scene.

Thank you for articulating what I hate about the ending.

Not having read the book, I continue to find it difficult to distinguish many of the characters - I keep wondering “Who’s that guy again? What’s his position?” Some men I can only identify by their varying hair and beards. But I am still enjoying teasing all of this out.

I like the book a lot, but I think this adaptation is actually superior to the novel. The narrative decisions they’re making is really punching-up the story.

What really pissed me off is that he used the supernatural story as an environmental fable in which the Victorians, having ushered in the Industrial Revolution, are slaughtered by a monstrous symbol of what the world loses from climate change. I think that’s terrible for two reasons:

I didn’t think that helping out the rest of the crew was running against Hickey’s character at all. He is vain and attention-seeking, and quick to assign external blame for his troubles even as he goes out of his way to antagonize people, but he’s also considerate to those in trouble. Remember just last week when he…
