This week, Movie Meltdown returns to their running series for another Marvel Super Special! They kick things off with a little response to Iron Fist on Netflix, then share some thoughts on the trailer for Thor: Ragnarok, all before launching into a full discussion of this week’s movie: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. And of course along the way, they find a way for the conversation to spill over into the Star Wars universe.
And as all concurrently get their Wormtongue on, they happen to mention… the Foot or The Hand, Zoe Saldana, losing your muscle, the essences of things, millennials and their music, Doritos, needs to be the Robin, regurgitated scripts, Dave Bautista, trespassing and breaking into the building, dragging their feet, Sylvester Stallone, Kurt Russell, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Yondu, Luuuke, James Gunn, relationships, Jessica Jones, please stop having your Splinter moments, swerving Mandarin, this is a geek dreaming, Daredevil, Chris Pratt, ten years in it’s so dependent now on its contextual brother-pieces, Karen Gillan, this band of misfits, how about all the musicians, The Defenders, I mean… the big bad is a bad dad, Tony Stark, force-sensitive droids and Bradley Cooper as the beaver… umm I mean, racoon.
Spoiler Alert: Lots of spoilers for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. So go see the movie before listening… you have been warned.
“It was slice of life… this is what happened with the Guardians this week.”
I was surprised this post was talking about “returning” when its the only post with the movie-meltdown tag here.
