As far as Drax goes, I think they may have wanted to try and distance him and Hulk. They really made him seem less "super power-y" and more "big bad ass". The thing that surprised me about Drax was how hilarious he was. Dave Bautista really did a great job.
There were definitely a few "cheesy" moments, but I think that is to be expected in this type of vehicle. Overall, I really think this one set the benchmark moving forward.
I AM GROOT!

I'll simply add that Guardians of the Galaxy joins The Avengers, Iron Man, and Captain America: The Winter Soldier as part of the top tier of Marvel Studios' films.

I'm seeing it tonight with the gf. Should be a good time.
Interested in seeing how the characters are displayed in some of the battle scenes in terms of power levels (ie: over 9000 or below) compared with the Avengers. I think one of Avengers's best accomplishments is balancing the power on the team and displaying the characters' abilities super close to the comics.
Iron Man can go a few rounds with Thor once he's charged up, but it's a losing battle. Cap can hold his own next to Thor on the front lines against the Chitauri, but was wearing down. Hulk would overwhelm Thor in a H2H fight, but Mjolnir evens the odds or tips them in Thor's favor. Even Black Widow and Hawkeye were greatly compared -- she would beat him up close, while he would merc her from afar.
Thus far, I also have Iron Man (2008), Winter Soldier, and Avengers as the films to beat out of the MCU slate, with The Dark World and Iron Man 2 bringing up the rear, though they're still decent.

Watched Boyhood as well. I totally respect the effort the director had to put into the film over the 12 year shooting schedule. That being said the final product was no amazing piece of cinema, it's cool to see the kids grow up on screen but it's a pretty basic character sketch/coming of age film that is way short on entertainment or anything of note happening. Not bad just not the amazing perfect film critics have dubbed it

I could rant forever. Especially on what I think can happen in future movies. But that will be later in life. Unless anyone wants to hear it message it.
Overall See this movie. Maybe more than once.

One thing that breaks my heart every time I see how great most of these MCU films are is that Marvel doesn't have the film rights to my favorite character: Spider-man.
I hope they don't do the Civil War storyline (or some permutation of it) before getting him back.
Alas.

@zarog
dont crush my dreams. lol.
All though GotG has been confirmed for a sequel, Ant Man is coming, Doctor Strange is confirmed, and Thor 3 is happening and they did confirm that it involves Ragnarok.
I really hope they do make an Inhumans movie though and same with Planet Hulk/WWH

If they make it through that and there's still desire for movies, then I believe there will be sufficient relationship building having been done that a Civil War film could happen. However, they currently don't have enough characters, though the Netflix series should take care of that soon.

With that being said, I hope that the studios can get out of their heads out their asses cause if it is just the Gauntlet series, then we need the Marvel Illuminati. Cause it make sense.
