FIRST TIME WATCHING: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2!!

Yes Rocket is a raccoon that's the joke that a bunch of aliens wouldn't know what a raccoon is.

Rockworm

Second comment unrelated to the movie. Well, tangentially related. So, the general expectation, from reading the comments, was that people thought you'd love this one, then you were lukewarm on it. I see a lot of commenters agreeing with the mentality that the movie wasn't super great. I wonder how like, influential the whole, mirroring thing is here. Like, whatever your opinion is, people would just, think that. Like litteral influencing. When you love something, and you watch someone else experience it and not feel the same sort of love, there's sort of this, crisis. Like, "Am I wrong to like this?". That usually immediately transfers into, either hostility, ot if hostility isn't an option, the desire to sway opinion. Like, how could I explain why the movie is good? Like, the character development in this was nutzo. It got all the crew to where they needed to be for infinity war and beyond. Like, it's amazing that Peter and Gamora didn't just, get together. It would have been so easy to get them together in the FIRST movie, then have like, some misunderstanding cause a fight....But then they're back together again. Peter and Gamora were both raised by abusive parents. Maybe Yondu wasn't as bad as Thanos, but, Young Peter wouldn't have known that. Rocket has never known love. Always been looked at as a freak and who knows how he found his relationship with Groot. Drax is sort of a savage guy, but he had it and lost it. His family was killed, and all he had was revenge. Drax is always laughing and being an idiot because this is the first time in a long time he feels anything other than just, that one emotion of wanting revenge. Also, yeah, maybe flanderization is a thing here. And I could go on. Yondu left his mark on everyone, his death was meaningful, in a way you never would have guessed it could have been in the first movie. Well, when he opens the orb, gets the troll, and smiles... that was kind of a hint. I wrote too much again. Oh well.

Cory Silver

To be fair, we have absolutely no idea how Adam will be presented in the MCU. I'm just happy that they kept the origin of being created by a bunch of self absorbed geeks who think he's the next evolution of themselves. The "Counter Earth" and High Evolutionary stuff... his soul stone / soul world thing. Will we get an MCU Pip Gofern? Could we be dealing with Magus in the MCU in 10 years? It's crazy, when I think "Well they've done all the ideas, there's no more movies to make" Like, just adding a single character... But, yeah, that all happened in the comics, a lot of the things have already happened in the MCU, so, I'm curious what's left to build with. I'm enthusiastic to see though.

Cory Silver

So for starters, I'm sorry you didn't enjoy this movie as much as others. I can see the criticism of not liking the jokes. I kind of dig that they're sort of stupid. The tone of the movie sort of has to be a bit outlandish. Perhaps the emotions of the movie would hit harder after a rewatch, knowing what happens down the road. (The Trailer for the movie is amazing by the way- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hdv_6gl4gk) This, could be my favorite of the Marvel movies. Lots of stuff to say here. I have two videos to link. One, I'll do now. You should watch this, and see how many people you recognize. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MMMe1drnZY You should watch it over and over again. There are at LEAST 6 people to recognize. (Hints two sisters, a blue guy, a tattooed guy, and a main character, and someone with antenna ) (Also the director and his brother) The Second video is this essay, on just how emotional this silly little movie is. It was by Lindsey Ellis, Who I guess is someone you either love or hate, but I have always liked her stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VulkN5OLEM It is a great video essay, I won't speak for the author. What to say about Vol. 2 though, that hasn't been said? Oh, here's something. A lot of the big celebrity cameos in the movie, like Sylvester Stallone, and Ving Rhames - The character's they're playing is the original Guardians. Ving is Charley 27, Stallone is Starhawk, Michael Rosenbaum is Martinex, That's the sort of Easter egg stuff that's kind of cool. I thought I'd have more to write, but I guess I'm stifled by the fact that so much has been said already. Lastly that Gilded Cocoon thing at the end, is something you should remember exists. Could be important later. I could regale with tales of who this "Adam" is, but, It'll be interesting to see how he exists in the MCU when he arrives. Will he be a big deal... or has his time passed? Who knows.

Cory Silver

Yeah I'm right there with ya on the humor in this one. Some of it is overworked and too self-indulgent. For me it's the main thing that separates this one from the first Guardians movie even though the emotional beats in this one were stronger. But on the plus side Top Screen made a really good Guardians tribute video afterwards: https://youtu.be/rEZfz52LiCQ

serendib

Natalie, you have to see the Point Break now, it's with Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze and it involves surfers, I can't say more, you'll understand that reference and why Stark calls Thor Point Break

Julien Grenier

This is one reason why you cant just go by your circle of friends. I loved this movie (as much or more than the first) but it wasn't as well received by critics and audiences as the original. You cant project your opinions onto others and then be disappointed when they don't line up exactly. :)

Robjgood

I'd never heard anything about "mixed reviews" or people either loving or hating it. Everyone I've seen loves it. It feels like you went into it with "this movie isn't going to be as good" and stuck with that. Anyway, enjoyed the reaction. This and the 1st Guardians are pretty much tied for me, though this one hit far more emotionally. Although maybe I feel kind of blah because I got Patreon *for* this movie because I thought you'd absolutely *love* this one for some reason, so any "nit picking" kind of bothered me and felt like you were just watching it because you had to. That's a me problem though, not a you problem!

Lady Beyond The Wall

Somewhat amusingly, you did still miss an end credit scene. Here is a hint, don't Marvel movies usually feature a certain cameo? I enjoyed you jamming with the music. You should sing more for us. (C8

—thoughtstorms—Keith—

Yet. GotG Vol. 3 is still coming.

Niklas

That was supposed to be Adam Warlock who was a big deal in Infinity War. But in the movies it never came to anything.

Keith Wing

Sorry you are right, Nathen's part was cut from the movie, my bad.

Jayson Phillips

Nathan Fillion was not in this movie. He was rumored to be playing ADAM, but ADAM hasn't made an appearance yet.

Oouga

Rocket is a raccoon that was experimented on.

Oouga

All of my favorite scenes involve or revolve around Yondu in this. When i was in the Navy, I used to read the Guardians comics, and Yondu was always my favorite Guardian. I am so glad he got the recognition he deserved!

Oouga

Love your voice, Nat... :)

Ellis Hugh

So Miley Cyrus was in the end credits scene and Nathan Filleon was also in this movie, check out the cast on IMDB, Also ADAM is refering to ADAM WARLOCK another Marvel Super. Also at the end was another team of Guardians of the galaxy crew. Love you Nat! you always look beautiful..not pale at all =)

Jayson Phillips

Oops posted this too early. Just want to say overall enjoyed the watchalong as always and can't wait for you to see Spiderman Homecoming next week and Ragnarok in a few. Though overall the Infinity War one is gonna be crazy to see.

Balkyne

I agree. Do NOT read reviews. Watch it for yourself and make up your own mind.

MotoDork

I think the comedy just isn't to your taste Nat. There were some jokes there which go on a long time which imo are funny due to the fact they go on too long, but it's understandable. As for finding things like the crash scene unbelievable due to Drax and Gamora surviving I think that's just a fundamental misunderstanding of the characters. They are super strong and hard to damage due to their heritage. If you can believe Cap can jump out of a plane without a parachute and live, why not them? I think you're expecting them to behave like humans when they're far from it

Balkyne

I can't imagine who in the world would not like this film.

MotoDork

I’m SO excited for next Marvel Monday, I think you’re going to love Spider-Man homecoming 🤘

Jim Powell

She clearly needs to avoid reviews in future... she seemed in herently judgemental straight away

Timten

lol it's one of their best films

WackySwacky

This was honestly the first time I've heard that someone disliked this movie. From what she said before it started it seemed like someone told her it was bad before she watched it and she went into the film expecting that. Personally I think this movie and the jokes were great but I guess it's subjective.

WackySwacky

so the reaction was great as always. I was wondering if you would ever give any thought to giving us a little bit of a lead in without the blurred focus or something for the end credit scenes. Particularly in films like this it is hard to know what you're watching exactly....and you missed one. ... I think... Stan Lee at the end.. It's really hard to tell.

Brandon Scott

Line: You betrayed the code! Ravagers don't deal in kids. Natalie: Do ravagers have some kind of code? Is this because of Chris Pratt?? Me: ummmm.... lmao. Luv u, Nat.

Brandon Scott

I cry at the end every time

macattack

Wow, thanks for sharing such heart-warming notes on your marriage's link to Sam Cooke.

JPOlsen

I love that scene with Groot dancing to ELO’s Mr. Blue Sky while everyone else is in a battle.

Kevin Townsend

Big Trouble has Kurt Russell right about the age they depict him at the beginning of this movie. With almost the same level of arrogance but a more good hearted kind.

Gerald Corona

You just said a Stan Lee end credit is not "super important"??! RIP Stan Lee. STAN, "I got so many more stories to tell!"

Gerald Corona

So close to watching every end credits scene. Yea just missed the very last one. Oh well. It's not super important.

Lucky Dragon ‘She.They’

Agreed. The last one had nothing to do with setting up the next movie or tease what could come next for the guardians. It was just for a quick laugh. Totally ok to skip.

Ron K

release order

Ken

Im confused as to what timeline Nat’s following? Guardians movies run back to back and Spider-Man Homecoming comes before Dr. Strange also nobody gets this one correct Captain Marvel come after Captain America the first avenger it’s the 2nd movie. As long as Natalie happy in confusion, I’m enjoying the reactions anyway, hope she goes onto wander vision after the movies.

RebRox65

I had the exact same feeling after seeing this film. I liked it but the humor felt forced and uneven while the drama was a bit too melodramatic for me. Volume 1 felt effortless in comparison. Also, for me, there were a couple of scenes that were an homage to The Empire Strikes Back (THE Sci-Fi Daddy Issues film lol!) that just pulled me out of the film for feeling so blatant. I am so curious to see what you think of Ragnarok. The comedy is very similar, but Taika Waititi genuinely elevated it in my opinion.

Dan Careaga

Rocket isn't a raccoon. He's a species from another planet that just looks a lot like a raccoon from Earth.

cartoonrobot

Had a feeling this would be your reaction. IMO Guardians 2 is the last hiccup marvel had, Can't wait for the next ones!!!! :D :D :D

Well, two recommendations after watching this; Big Trouble in Little China and Farscape.

Flukemarm

I like this one but maybe a bit too many jokes.

You dont look pale to me, but im scottish/Norwegian so my family is very pale. You dont look sick nat , its easy to tell when your pale. Its under the eyes.

Cripkie

Next is Spider-Man: Homecoming.

Kal-El_138

Hey Nat! The next movie is Spider-Man: Homecoming, but I don’t think it’s on Disney+, so be aware of that when you come to watch it 🙂

VProductions

nooo I liked the fireplace😭

gabe bs

Yep Adam means something to us. We will see if Marvel does anything.

Garrick Smalley

I have to say that mostly I concur with your thoughts about this film Nat. I definitely prefer the first movie. This one does have a few high points, but overall it's not as fun. I think they makers felt they need to spend more time fleshing out the characters and their relationships, and that kinda brings down the frantic/silly tone. Btw you look great Nat, there's nothing wrong with being fair skinned as long as you're going outside semi-regularly to get some sun, for the Vitamin D you should be good.

BJ Stephens

I love how much you love the music.

Garrick Smalley

In the comics, Celestials are among the oldest, and most powerful, beings in the entire Marvel Universe. Also, Ego is known as ‘Ego the Living Planet’, and has run into many of the characters in Marvel. And, Drax, as well as Gamora, have superhuman strength and are quite difficult to injure, but they don’t really show that side of them in the movies, so Drax would have been just fine swinging around behind the ship and Gamora would have been able to hold on to Drax like that quite easily. Well, it has been pointed out before, the ‘Adam’ that gets mentioned is a character named: Adam Warlock, and he has been part of the Guardians of the Galaxy, plays a huge role in the Infinity saga, as well as a gigantic adversary to Thanos.

Danny Miller

First of all... I hope you did watch all the credits and just skipped on the stream. Because if you did skip, you missed Zandu Hasselfrau's song! Also you'll have missed the last part of the credits... "I am Groot " which means "No raccoons or tree creatures were harmed in the making of this feature. The same cannot be said for the handlers of said raccoons and tree creatures" (literally, it says "I am Groot" then changes to the 2nd thing). Also, there was one more end-credits bit. With that said(had to put it first to remember), on re-watch... I think I personally prefer this to the first one; just a little. Also, at the risk of this being deleted for profanity; I am groot.

Misty Crom

I hope the next one you do is Thor Ragnarok. It's definitely one of the funniest in the mcu.

uncaged.ulfhedinn

Nat: "What about invasive species?" Well...

Garrick Smalley

Nat!! Awesome time as always! Ok so first, Rocket is my favorite guardian so love seeing you share the love! 🤙🏼 lol also maybe its just me with my friends and family, maybe it was just the people in the theater when I saw it, but I will say while I agree the jokes seem to linger to long upon watching this at home with less people, I will say when this came out the jokes/humor landed very well. In the theater the jokes that lingered to long seem to hit the heaviest as well, at least here in the panhandle on that day in the screening I saw. The awkward length with a crowd made it land well I guess. Anyways super fun time as always! Looking forward to what’s next! 🤘🏼

Luis R.

Agreed. Maybe just watch the clip on like youtube or something, but no need to record for it.

Ken W

I'd never heard this movie got mixed reviews. I thought it was as loved as all the other marvel films. I personally enjoyed the first guardians more as well but I had a fun time with this one also. The important end credit is a precursor for a character called Adam Warlock, I won't say anything about him as I don't want anything spoiled if people don't know about him yet. I think while the jokes might not have landed as well for you the events in this movie are all SUPER important for things to come so don't write this one off in your mind!

john collins

Nat, you look fine, no worries there. I really enjoy this movie and like it more than the first one. I do however understand if others think there's too many jokes, but it wasn't for me, though I do like silly humor like Monty Python, etc. I love Yondu and Rocket's interactions and the breakthrough as characters they had.

Chris Lane- Venturi 3D

Gonna start with The Chain is a great song and you got me wanting to listen to some Sam Cooke now. But yeah they kinda lost me when the ship crashed through the forest and Drax was unscratched. Along with the hamminess of some moments. However, the Nebula arch saved this movie for me. She's probably one of my favorite mcu characters tbh. I think Karen Gillan did such a good job with her. I appreciate the honest reaction. Only one movie away from Ragnarok, eeeeeeeeeeee!

It Hurt A Lot

I thought this one was a lock to be a favorite. Now I'm really curious how you're gonna feel about Ragnarok cause I feel they are the 2 funniest in the MCU

You missed the very last post-credit scene As for why Yondu died, Rocket didn't believe that Yondu or Quill would survive, so they had no reason to be waiting for them in orbit when they escaped the planet. Quill would survive long enough to get rescued, but Yondu wouldn't (even in the first one the only reason Gamora lasted as long as she did was because of her "body mods", and Quill because he told Yondu exactly where they were before he left his mini-ship). Add that to the fact that the guys they spaced during the mutiny died in a hurry and bob's yer uncle.

Hylaea

Watching this as soon as I get home from Las Vegas.

MotoDork

Guys, don't be making her feel like she needs to see that last 2 second joke scene. Particularly for a movie where some beats didn't hit well with her. It shouldn't be a chore to watch these movies.

Fawks

Natalie...watch👏through👏the👏entire👏credits👏 for all movies

Nathan Churchill

I will second this!

Brian Leonard

People are pointing out that there's one end credits scene that you missed, but really, it's completely inconsequential. It's just a silly gag.

Omni Jacala

My father died about a week before this released, and I went to see it hoping for a distraction - an escape. Didn't really work out that way, did it? I doubt I'll ever make it through this one without bawling my eyes out. But it's fine. It's just the way it is. :)

Robert Reichle

hate to break it to you natalie but the had one more scene at the very end

William JV

It's so sad how much I look forward to Marvel Monday every week now!

Jon Hoover

Wait, is Nat not a ghost? 👻 I am the only ghost here? No...

Sean

I found GotG2 way too sentimental and the jokes overly indulgent. I love the family themes but every character no matter how psychotic (Nebula) suddenly announces their inner trauma. It felt overly convenient to me and in some places unearned, back to back scenes of emotional catharsis!! But its an incredibly creative and visually stunning movie. Great reaction Nat! Really looking forward to the next few films

George Baxter

I'm at the part where Ego is talking to Starlord about the song "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)"... I love that Nat said she wishes the song existed as a metaphor without drawing attention to it. SPOILERS for those who haven't seen this movie yet - Because Ego is manipulating and grooming the fuck out of Peter.

MrAlexSan

Fun fact, David Hasselhoff played Nick Fury in a movie about Shield in the 90's

Jorge Bonafé

As for the paleness/hat combo, you had a PaRappa the Rapper vibe goin' on.

Troy B.

"How many end credit scenes are there?" – Well, one more, Nat, one more. One more than you watched. :)

Patrick Armbruster

I hadn't heard that this movie had mixed reviews, as I'd only seen it once and really liked it, but this second time around I did notice some issues. I think I like the overall story of this one better than the first one. The first one is just a MacGuffin Chase, whereas this one has some more character development. But there was about 10-15 minutes of this movie here and there that I think it would've been better without. I think the success of the first one may have led to this one being a little more indulgent in some respects. I still really liked this one, and the reveal about Quill's dad still felt impactful even when I knew it was coming.

Troy B.

Agree totally that Vol. 2 isn't as great as the first one. Drax's interactions with Mantis are particularly uncomfortable.

Opti_Frog

I love how psychedelic this one is. Music and color and confronting your ego, lol. Burning Man indeed!

abz

To lazy to read all the comments so if this has been said already sorry....but, Adam is for Adam Warlock another comic book character (which has yet to be introduced in the MCU) I have seen all the MCU movies 20+ times a piece so getting to watch it again with someone with fresh eyes is fun. Especially when you make a comment I know you will figure out later in the film. The duck's name is Howard as in Howard the Duck (another Marvel character) a movie was made about him in 1986, no need to watch it...it's horrible. I have noticed that you are fairly intuitive when watching these films most of the time about what's coming, I find it impressive.

lastboyscout73

F in chat for the Fireplace.

MrAlexSan

If you are, I'm with you. I like this one more than the first. But they are close.

Valar Dohaeris

I'm definitely in the minority on this but I enjoy this movie more than guardians 1, I just feel like it's more enjoyable all the way through. But it was fun watching it along side you Natalie! It's been a while since I sat down and watched this one!

The end-credit scene, yeah. She got all the Mid-credit scenes.

Daniel Drew

he's not a raccoon!

BNJ

yeah i think its mixed as more people liking Guardians 1 more than 2 as opposed to people being mixed on its overall quality. I personally like 2 more than 1.

Vincent Valentin

Hahah, it's pretty hilarious that a comic space movie with a talking racoon and a tree has scenes that are too ridiculous and not realistic enough for you LMAO. Funny stuff. Not sure who's telling you that there are mixed reviews for Vol. 2. It's pretty universally loved and both critics and audience score is over 85% on RT. Great movie.

Stefan Johannsson

Only one more film before you get to the glory that is Thor: Ragnarok, and the payoff for having to watch the first two Thor films.

Nerd Going Outside

Another fun reaction ✨love your singing nat you have a lovely voice , nice to hear you like fleetwood mac the chain is a fantstic song from a classic album (rumours) will always be known as the formula one song by many people though myself included , btw you look just fine i would say light pink by no means white i just think your pale top might make you think that , love rocket and groots scenes the most they are always fun ,another one down another closer to thor ragnarok im so so excited for that one not far away now 🙂 think Adam must be referring to Adam warlock me thinks!. Thanks again nat for another lovely marvel monday 💛

Ian

The characters played by Stallone, Ving Rhames and Michelle Yeoh are all riffs on/homages to the original 1969 Guardians of the Galaxy team as is Michael Rooker's Yondu. They were a space-based team from the 31st Century that would periodically travel back in time to 20th C Earth and have adventures with the Avengers et al. The MCU Guardians are based on the 2008 comic book team assembled from existing Marvel characters by writers Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning. Unlike the 1969 team, the 2008 team was set in a contemporary time period with the Avengers, Spider-Man, etc.

Starromania72

Glad to hear you're a Fleetwood Mac fan. I actually got to see them in concert around 35 years ago. From one fan to another, enjoy - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27QaDxG36DM

JayF

fun fact, the actor that plays Kraglin is the directors brother (Sean & James Gunn), and is also the on-set stand-in for Rocket wearing a greenscreen onesie and hopping around :)

Steve J

I’ve been waiting for this! Easily one of my top MCU movies. Definitely gets me every time and can’t wait to see what Natalie thinks about it.

Brad Velky

Yes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MMMe1drnZY yes yes yes - can I echo the calls for you to react to the music video!!!!!!

Thomas Yanez

You still missed one post credits scene! 😆😅😆😂🤣😂😅😆😅😂🤣

Valar Dohaeris

Thank you Nat for this perfect reaction! First point: don't worry about your appearance, you're not ugly ("pale"), and you're great on the inside! 😆💛 Next point: again your reaction was great, especially when you started to sing, I was unable to stop myself from doing the same 😆, you should consider watching a musical movie, it can only be magical with you! I hope you are well, be safe and stay golden! 💛

Calo Grsf

I basically like almost anything from 1989 and earlier haha

Natalie Gold

Happy Marvel Monday! 😊 This was another great reaction. I really love this movie, however the first "Guardians of the Galaxy" is my favorite of the two. It's the secondary storyline with The Sovereign that doesn't hold my attention much. The "And I just wanted a sister" moment seemed to be a good turning point for Gamora and Nebula. Even though Yondu's death got me right in the feels, I never thought about how it could've been prevented if the ship was there waiting to intercept them. Good how you pointed that out. I loved hearing you singing along with music. You have a pretty singing voice. I'm already looking forward to "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" when it comes out. Next up, another super fun movie "Spider-Man: Homecoming". That's another one that I'm so excited for your reaction on. 😊 Safe travels back home. Have a great day & week. Until the next video, Stay Golden! 💛

Randee Carreno

I respectfully disagree. I think Ragnarok > Homecoming > GotG 2. But thats okay.

Armchair Wizard

Marvel Mondays! I love this movie. The humor, music, the people. All great. I cannot wait for GoG vol3. Another great job, Nat.

Tranquil_Gnome

You did great, but you still missed one final after-credits scene! lol, don't worry about it. I can't wait to see you watch the next few films.

Patrick W

Great suggestion!

Ian Forbes

One of my favorite MCU movies

Kelvin

I'm surprised people don't like this movie. I personally really love it. I think the characters are a little bit more realised, the story's more intriguing and it's a lot of fun.

JSounds

This movie is fun, but does take the way it handles character danger from comic book levels to Looney Toons level as far as hero invulnerability. Everybody is essentially unkillable which makes it hard to feel any stakes.

Steve J

It was in this video that I realized that you have a kickass taste in music. You started singing Come a Little bit Closer along with the film as well as brandy and was really impressed...those aren't typical classic rock station plays. You should check out Rock of Ages if you haven't. I think you would dig it

Christopher Robles

Oh what did I do?!

Good luck dude. I just started a new job myself

Always a great start to the week with marvel Monday thanks Nat 💛

Ian

If you find the time, you might appreciate Lidsay Ellis' video essay "The Complex Feels of Guardians of the Galaxy v.2" about the themes of family and abuse in this movie. Made me appreciate it all the more. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VulkN5OLEM

Axel Dietze

I liked the first GotG more but the second one didnt got me as well, although it has his Moments (Babygroot is adorbale) but the Father-Son Story wasnt for me, cant say why. Anyway, nice to see another MCU Movie and to know we approaching the Finale. Im so excited for it. p.s. im so jealous for you seeing them for the first time. Have a nice Week Nat, thx for all your work.

Curaitis

Really looking forward to this one. Without spoiling anything, I think of all the non-titled MCU characters (those without their own movie), Nebula's story is my personal favorite, over the course of the movies she's in, and I'll just leave it there. Just finished making breakfast, so that'll be my drink and snack. Getting ready to cue up my copy now. Thanks for brightening our Mondays, Nat. Cheers! P.S.: Congrats on your 50th movie (if I've been counting right)!

Andy Jordan

Bye Fireplace! We will miss you!

JediLounger

Thank you

Aaron Taft

While not as good as the first, this movie marks the start of a great expansion in the MCU. The universe gets a whole lot bigger over the next few movies leading up to Infinity War.

JediLounger

I am Groot. Marvel Mondays are always something to look forward to Nat. This movie definitely messes with the emotions. Not as funny as the first, but still an enjoyable romp. And of course a moving score, and great to watch you bopping along to the songs. Thanks for an enjoyable start to the week Nat. Will miss your fireplace location, but we'll see you back in familiar surroundings next time, back where it all began....💛

Darryl Low

GotG 2 > Homecoming > Ragnarok is such a fun run of movies.
