To say fans are excited for GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 is an understatement. Excitement means waiting to get your chicken nuggets at the McDonald’s drive-thru, or seeing the “Delivered” status on an Amazon package. But the anticipation for this movie is akin to Black Friday shoppers smooshing their faces against the sliding door of a Wal-Mart, literally foaming at the mouth for a chance to get discounted bath towels. People aren’t excited for this movie—they’re ravenous. If you fall into such a category of folks, then here is the full trailer for the upcoming space flick to act as a bite to tease your hunger even more. Oh, and what a spectacular bite it is.
Fans will be dissecting this trailer for awhile, but the biggest takeaway from it is "holy mother of Jesus let's watch that again!" We still didn't get much of a taste for the movie in terms of story, or get to see many other characters outside of the main gang, but the movie looks insanely fun and strange, taking everything great about the original and upping the ante. The effects look bigger, the colors look bolder, the cast seems to feel completely at home in their roles, AND we got a great first look at Mantis (Pom Klementieff). Baby Groot lives up to the cuteness hype, and will no doubt steal the show just like he does here. Anyone worried this film may not be as joyous as the first will sleep easy tonight…mostly because you won’t have “Hooked on a Feeling” in your head.
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 with Chris Pratt, Zoë Saldana, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Karen Gillan and Michael Rooker is set for May 5.
