mstrox 6,651 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 32 minutes ago, Jay said: Vin Diesel thinks a Groot movie is bound to happen Stupid! Vin Diesel's whole schtick is dreaming movies into existence by sheer force of talking about them. It's how we got a third Riddick movie despite the second movie not breaking even, and it's how we got a new XxX movie this year. As long as movies like this are kept mid-budget and he's attached, they'll typically make a decent profit. Not sure how that will translate to a Marvel movie, as their goal of making everything interconnected and making billions in profit (as opposed to millions) has thus far precluded "smaller" movies.

Luke Skywalker 1,796 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I dont see the awesomeness of the character...Why cast him with a famous actor...if the does only say one word... is he at least motion captured? but i think the baby isnt... so where is the point.

A24 4,346 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 The chemistry is in the gang and the interaction between the members of that gang. It's like making a solo movie about ... ... the pilot of Firefly. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,346 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Yep, it's my new Joss Whedon dose. The humor in Guardians is quite different from the other Marvel movies.

A24 4,346 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 When it comes to Marvel, Vol.2 is my last hope. However, the pressure that James Gunn must feel to repeat the success of the first movie will probably be his demise. As we all remember, it's what happened to Spielberg with Temple Of Doom. I can already see Gunn making a third Guardians film to apologize and make up for the second one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,374 Posted February 6, 2017 Author Share Posted February 6, 2017 I am sure I will have fun watching GOTG 2. Stuff like Black Panther, Thor 3, Infinity War, I'm pretty much meh. I'm curious to see Brie Larson's Marvel Girl film, but that's so far off and I still don't get why she gets her own film before ScarJo's Black Widow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite different from Raiders, but a fun rollercoaster all the same. Bit dark though, but at least not "modern movie syndrome" dark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,374 Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Right, that's basically how I feel. And with him being signed up for this so early, hopefully the extra time will lead him to write a lot of interesting cues this time to go along with the nice theme runthroughs.

And the theme is epic It's stodgy and heavy-handed. Not the most elegant or most imaginative of Silvestri's creations. But it serves the film very well in a sense that it cements all the pieces and characters together and gives them some clear purpose dramatically. Perhaps a more flamboyant and light aporoach would be just too watered-down for so many threads. It was a smart move to go simple and straightforward. People might say what they want about Silvestri as a musician but he's certainly not an idiot when it comes to film storytelling and pacing Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
