Guardians of the Galaxy

:D Happy New Year's Eve! Or New Years day! depending where you are!

Comments

Love that you can hear Rocket's voice half crack when he asks for the leg trying not to laugh

Random3x

I like how from the very start of the movie, peter switches his guns to non-lethal when fighting most people. there isn't much attention drawn to it, but it really shows from the start that he's a good guy at heart.

Kyllix

Ah Howard the Duck. While some comic fans know him. Us older people will remember that He had his own live action Marvel Movie YEARS Ago. One of the FIRST live action Marvel movies back in 1986. And it was BAD. lol So Yeah. Its a nice little Easter egg for the older people and Comic fans. Nothing else to it though.

Nunya Biz

My god i didnt notice Howard the duck in the very last part i thought the last part is groot in a pot dancing only

190 Kj

After this movie came out, Baby Groot was all my girlfriend talked about. She adored him. For her birthday, I got her a Baby Groot that would "dance" to music it heard. She would set it up by the stereo speakers and it would dance all day while she did things around the house. One of the best purchases I ever made.

Kap

i swear thanos was blue in this movie

Andrew

You don't. You really don't. But you should. ;D

dune rat

Oh you have to check out the Guardians game.

Alex Woll

I can actually understand hearing this for Guardians 2, but for the first one? Really? Also there is comedy here, but to say it diffused the tension means you weren't paying attention at all since they didn't undercut the intended serious moments.

Aye Jaye

i dont believe it was an accident. unexpected by everyone else but something about the way chris pratt turns his wrist tells me it was intentional on chris's part that he didnt tell anybody else.

mitchhamilton64

So fun fact: Peter dropping the orb wasn't in the script, that was a complete accident on set. But Gunn liked the take so much, he kept it in because he thought it just fit too well for Peter's character.

YubarReingok

that was Howard the Duck at the end. You HAVE to watch the 80's Howard the Duck movie! :D

YeCrustModifier

Still love that Peter dropping and catching the orb was an accident.

Petter Uppvall

Yondu is the same actor who played Mearl. Daryls heavily racist brother in the walking dead season 1. Thats where i know him from atleast

HappyMeal 4Fun

There is like a few more movies until then. She is going in MCU watch order.

YukoValis

When you doing vol 2? It's super fun.

Sean Forster

the hughs drop was unecesary and i am now crying

Gavin Thomas

5:10 the only thing worse than the pain of loss, is having no one to share the pain with. 11:55 vin d. is better in his voice only roles than most of his live roles. iron giant was masterful.

Zeekutar The Immortal

The drop at 1:09:10 was actually accidental and they kept it in

Alex Cline

Agreed, Guardians of the Galaxy is in no way a kids movie. Because it has comedy and zany stuff in it. You reek of the kind of person who thinks all animation is for kids and that warhammer is on the same level as gi joe action figures. Geez complaining that a marvel move is 'too marvelly' Is your salt too salty too? What are you doing watching marvel movies .. If you don't like Marvel?

CrazyChameleon

Oh yeah, seeing a passed away loved one messes you up. Planned or not. No matter how old you are. Your dad & you are real ones for what you did. <3

Mojo

imo guardians 1-3 is where the humor actually works unlike later trash where its overdone

Charlie baker

guardians is easily my favorite of the mcu

Charlie baker

Not sure if anyone Mentioned but the Duck at the end was Howard the Duck. He was the first attempt at a marvel movie. Let's just say it's bad... REALLY BAD!

Silver Raven

We don’t care

Ben Yokes

The more I learn about her dad the more I am convinced He is an IRL uncle Iroh... The kinda dad I will try to be!

Azi

This right here is where it gets "too marvely" for me. I can enjoy it BUT I HAVE TO FULLY SHUT DOWN MY BRAIN. This is where it started... The forced 'kid's movie" like constant defusion of tension. I hate how it also seeped out into many other marvel films and series...

Azi

In its release order so... I think 4ish movies from Age of Ultron?

Bologna Amputation

Alicia- (Wishes Rocket won't die) Finger curls on monkey's paw. Two seconds later- We Are Groot

Sean Harvey

awesome react, hope your long list may include both the holiday special and I Am Groot (2022 series of shorts)

Rhodair

When you doing guardians 2? I love watching with your commentary, feels very comfy.

Sean Forster

I hope we get the Holiday Special!!! And whenever we get to part 3 - you know if you know.

L Freya

Interessting read, thanks.

Cat on Crack

this movie was a pivotal point in Holleywood. the comedy factor was copied to hell after the success of this movie.

vincent shiflett

I didn't pick up for years that the new Groot sapling at the end is not actually Groot. That's his son.

Sawnderz

It's hilarious Alicia actually had a big reaction to the name "Star-Lord", like the complete opposite to the scene's intention lol

hemahemahema

This is one of my favorite movies in the MCU, probably top 3. It's funny too because on paper this isn't really the kind of movie I usually like. I don't usually like having a lot of jokes and comedy in superhero movies and I tend to prefer when adaptions at least try to stay true to the source. Can't really explain why this movie works despite the focus on comedy and doing something very different from how these characters are in the comics I've read. Actually, I think a lot of the changes to the characters were actually done in the comics first, there was a relaunch of Guardians of the Galaxy in like 2008, I think? I wasn't reading comics at the time, haven't really read those so I don't really know but I'm pretty sure Brian Bendis wrote the book and he's kind of infamous for not really giving a shit about the work of writers who came before him and doing whatever he wants with established characters. You know, I feel an autistic info dump incoming so I'm just gonna type an essay about the publication history of these characters, feel free to read but it's not really important. So the Guardians of the Galaxy was originally conceived as a team formed in the far future of the 31st century (one possible futured, dubbed Earth-691) where Earth had been conquered by these aliens called, uh, the Badoon I think? The Guardians consisted of Major Vance Astro, an astronaut who had been traveling in cryo sleep since the 80s; Charlie-27, a genetically modified giant man from Jupiter; Martinex, a crystal man from Pluto and Yondu Udonta, from Earth's first interstellar colony in the Alpha Centauri system. So the only character in this movie who was a member of the original Guardians is actually Yondu! Although he was quite different originally, the reason he has a mohawk and uses an arrow was originally because he was conceived as kind of a Native American in Space, down to his people being victims of colonization by a foreign power (Earth). He had a bow that he would shoot his arrow from but he also controlled it with whistling. The original Guardians were created in 1969 by Arnold Drake and Gene Colan. They would occasionally time travel and interact with the Avengers or the Defenders or whatever but otherwise they kinda existed in their own separate continuity. Star-Lord is a character who did exist very briefly in the 70s. First appearing in Marvel Preview in 1975, created by Steve Englehart, Steve Gad and Bob McLeod, he got a few features in Marvel Preview and Marvel Premiere as well as one singular issue of his own self titled book. He also lived in a future where Earth were fighting aliens but a different future from the one where the Guardians lived (Earth-791, entirely separate from Earth-691 you see). He had some similarities to his modern counterpart, like his name and the name of his mother as well as being a hybrid, but not a lot. I don't think there was much mention of Star-Lord after 1976 until likely 2004 I think when the concept was dusted off and given a second chance. Gamora in this movie is not too dissimilar to her comic book counterpart. Adopted daughter of Thanos, feared as the Deadliest Woman in the Galaxy. Believe it or not but she's also from yet another different future, Earth-7528! Her future however was only like 20 years in the future and Thanos from the main timeline went there, got her and brought her back to the main timeline, Earth-616. Her and Nebula don't really have the sister type relationship in the comics. In the comics Nebula is this psycho villain who claims to be Thanos' granddaughter and Thanos is like "I've never seen this woman in my whole life" except maybe he's lying? I'm not sure to be honest. Anyways, in the comics Nebula destroys Xandar, killing 5 billion inhabitants. When a Xandarian confronts her and asks why she did she basically says "it seemed like a fun idea at the time". Drax in the comics is actually from Earth originally. He was a jazz musician in Las Vegas named Arthur Douglas. However, Arthur and his family had the misfortune of accidentally seeing Thanos' ship when he was scouting out Earth so Thanos shot their car without second thought, killing them. It was actually Thanos' father who took what was left of Arthur and returned him to life as Drax the Destroyer for the express purpose of killing Thanos since he had come to realize that his son was irredeemable evil. Draw originally had fairly normal intelligence but later had his brain partially destroyed by a telepath and became actually mentally handicapped which, uh, never sat very well with me. I actually prefer how they did him in the movie where he's not stupid, he just thinks differently. Actually, me and a lot of others with autism find him very relatable. I also just really like Dave Bautista, he's someone I admire a lot. Anyways, Drax and Gamora were actually on a different team before the new Guardians were formed, they were other Infinity Warch together. Groot is pretty interesting because he's actually one of the oldest characters in these movies publication wise, first appearing in Tales to Astonish in 1960 where he was billed as "The Monster from Planet X" and was a pretty generic but tree themed evil space monster. Technically that story is still Canon but the modern Groot is a different Groot. Rocket Raccoon is actually a character I know a fair bit about since he's the brainchild of Bill Mantlo who I know as a Hulk writer. Actually, Mantlo used the 20th anniversary issue of Incredible Hulk as a sneak pilot to get his Rocket Raccoon character off the ground. He had tried once before in a Prince Wayfarer feature in one of the anthology books but Rocket didn't really take off from there so Mantlo put him in Hulk as well and then got him his own book for a mini series. He was quite a different character originally. For one thing he was very, very British, his dialogue full of British slang and such. You can still hear that in adaptions from before this movie, like Marvel vs. Capcom 3 where he has a British accent. He also had an almost Robin Hood like demeanor, being an outlaw fighting for the freedom of all his animal friends from the evil mole Judson Jake's and his arch rival Blackjack O'Hare. So yeah, quite different. Anyways, I think that's quite enough for now. Probably too much but I might ad well stop myself now before I go on about Ronan the Accuser and the Kree and the Nova Corps or whatever.

Bob

Sadly, Groot did actually die at the end. That little twig is his son, Groot II.

CrimsonWarrior55

funny thing is drax has a rare disorder where he cant see things that stop moving, hence why he couldnt see groot at the end dancing

Anthony

ditto !!

Yagi di Hoshi

REAAALL

Yagi di Hoshi

yeah, so theres a reason the camera didn't track him "it looks more accidental" she says lol

PotterBrony

Good luck with the copyright stuff for this reaction

G0R0_!ch!B@n25

"did i just cry to a tree saying three words yes i did" well to be fair you also cried to a ship so like this isnt off brand for you lol

WindWarriorPlays

chris pratt was infact chubbier...then he was told to lose weight if he wanted this role.....the rest is history

WindWarriorPlays

dude i love your reactions so much oh my god ive been here since the start of jojos with ant

Ultrazucc

LETS GOOOOO

Ultrazucc

Yep, you’re in the heart of the MCU now. Pretty darn glorious.

LazyArtist

“What are you doing?” Is the funniest part in the whole movie.🤣 It may be the only part that makes Ronan slightly more memorable than the Dark Elf.

Moviejunkie

It also made the initial "what are you doing?" Such a great line because he's such a lame villain that he drops the sanctimonious act out of sheer confusion and then pick it up again afterwards when he's a had a little more time to compose himself. It shows that he is acting a part, in universe.

Shadowsofpain

Don't be sad Alicia, Christmas is over, we gotta put the tree away

Kyrix

I've been following you for a few years now, since you started the JoJo's reaction and let me thank you for all the great content you put out. You definitely deserve the growth you've had!

Bastiwen

Wooohoo! More Marvel! I love this one. I actually had a Baby Groot toy that would play the song and shake around when you pushed the button, it was super cute! :)

Aqua Lantern

For some reason I thought doctor strange was prior cause in winter soldier they mentioned doctor strange by name so I was like oh shit did we skip it but you are right. XD so many films xD

GT QcNumber1 Vézina

Damn that’s 5 great movies in a row we’re eating good

Ben Yokes

Chronological would’ve been cool and would’ve gotten garbage movies (captain marvel) out of the way fast

Ben Yokes

Please don’t tell me it’s Adam warlock

Ben Yokes

I love watching these films with your reactions. You give all these insights one how a particular scene was made or the reason why peter doesn't want to hold his mothers hand.

ChaotixInsanity

Fun fact: for the international dubs of the movie, Vin Diesel himself did the dub for Groot in a bunch of different languages, including my native language, brazilian portuguese ;D Even if it's just 3 words, it's kind of wild hearing Vin Diesel speaking portuguese XD

Yurei Okami

Since you didn't say it, what would you rate this one, Alicia?

DLBTibbin

Happy new year

Ok

The Elf in Thor 2 was very forgettable.

Moviejunkie

I think that last bit is what makes him more satisfying than what's his face from Thor 2 - we get to watch him get shit on by a better villain.

Bologna Amputation

So, here's a fun fact: Vin Diesel's script had the meaning behind every line, and he was simply to read it as "I am Groot," in the tone of a given line. I feel it's most obvious in the "It's better than eleven" line!

Bologna Amputation

She's watching in release order, not chronological order, which is good

Bologna Amputation

We’re working off of release order, so strange is pretty soon 👍

PrivateXimmy

Nah, you were just wrong bruv. Gaslighting that Alicia was wrong and that I’ve had some sort of report here in the same breath is crazy.

PrivateXimmy

Nostalgia critic: duck tits woohoo

Tor Andre Frantsvaag

First, Alicia you are absolutely right because this movie ends with the power of friendship better than My little pony. Second, Ronan is probably the Lamest villain in the MCU to me, he’s just angry and evil to where Thanos had to tell him he ain’t shit.

Moviejunkie

HAPPY NEW YEARS !!!

Tor Andre Frantsvaag

Oh man, I gotta pause and do an autism because I just made a connection that I haven't caught before in this movie. The pink alien babe in Peter's ship at the beginning says her name is Bereet and I just realized why I know that name. Bereet is a character in the comics who first appeared in The Rampaging Hulk in 1977. Rampaging Hulk was a separate line of comics from Incredible Hulk, the mainline book for Hulk, that was published by Curtis Magazines, an imprint of Marvel Comics. It was black and white with higher quality print and more pages than Incredible Hulk and told stories that were separate from the current ongoing in the main book, like when the Hulk fought the X-Men in Paris. Bereet appeared in this book as a mysterious alien who joined Hulk in fighting of an alien invasion (by other aliens). Later on after Rampaging Hulk was canceled, most of the characters from that book couldn't be used anymore (including a personal favorite of mine, Dr. Sheila Marks who was actually the first to suggest Bruce Banner might be suffering from DID) and the events of the book was rendered non Canon. However, Bereet showed up in Incredible Hulk and it was retconned that Bereet was actually a movie producer on her planet and the events of Rampaging Hulk were actually part of movies she made that basically amounted to fanfiction of herself going on adventures with the Hulk and his friends. Then she shows up in the main book and acts like she's actually friends with Hulk and Betty and Rick (Hulk's best friend who isn't in the movies) and they're all like "who...?". And apparently there is a Bereet in the MCU and it took me until now to realize. Ok, autistic info dump over, I'll go back to watching the reaction now.

Bob

There are like 4 movies before Guardians 2. Next is Ultron one of my favorites.

YukoValis

Fun fact about the guy known as The Collector, he’s part of a group of ancients known as “The Elders of The Universe” although he doesn’t look it. He’s been around since I think the Big Bang, and he’s dedicated his life to collecting all of the rarest items in the entirety of Marvel Universe (at least this universe) he’s probably the coolest character in the movie in my opinion.

nelson pederson

What about Ultron?

unknown organism

I was going to dispute it, but no, that's actually right. I thought there was other movies released between them lol

TurtleKungFu

Let's go more marvel. Personally my favorite marvel movie is guardians 3 but that's because well I don't want go give any spoilers, even telling you who my favorite guardian is, a spoiler. Anyways glad your still posting marvel

Nick Lopez

Woo Guardians 2 should be the next in the order

idek

Peter dropping the orb was a real mistake Chris pratt made and they kept in the the Final Cut

Bean Dippens

Groot did sacrifice himself to save everyone, all Flora Colossus reproduce asexually, that twig that Rocket looked for and found is a core of a new Groot basically his son Groot Jr. Other notable characters are the duckman Howard the duck from a universe where duck evolved instead of monkeys, Cosmo the Russian Cosmonaut a good doggo that was put in a Russian Sputnik rocket and got flung across the galaxy and last you maybe recognize Yondu's actor from the Walking Dead he was Daryl's brother in the show before he died. Also the Howard the Duck movie believe it or not is actually a Spielberg directed movie not one of his best mind but it is one of his. Honestly it is a cheesy and somewhat bad movie but a personal guilty pleasure of mine to watch.

Matthew Williams

Howard the Duck at the end is part of the Marvel Universe, but he is most famous as a 1986 movie as well, which is why he was a fun easter egg.

REI

wdym?

Giorgos Giovanna

if i dont count dragon ball battle of gods, this was the VERY first feature film i ever took myself out alone to see - just over ten years ago, no other adult, & i was 21. i also see a lot of my friends at the time on twitter quote "not 100% a dick" on their profiles - which is adorable. this movie does mean quite a bit to me..

Yagi di Hoshi

she completely misread it, was pretty funny. same chatter who has to reprimand the community for being so toxic from time to time.

Easy Mode - A.I

one and only Patreon sub and still the best by far

Danger Zone

i blinked & missed when rocket was on-screen appearing passed out, but i thought she was freaked out at the possibility of drax dying since he was also passed out just in the next shot, lmao

Yagi di Hoshi

Doctor Strange is Phase 3. We're still in Phase 2. Next is Age of Ultron, Ant-man, Civil War then Doctor Strange.

Baindrik Morgren

Guardians 1 is such an incredible film. Like, up there with OG Iron Man IMO. There's so much I want to say but they all just boil down to fuck this is such a good, fun movie.

Koirby

Damn...she cried so hard at "We are Groot" she swapped clothes for a sec...

SpongeBob DeezHands

This is the same chatter who got flamed in the DanDaDan patreon comments for patronizing Alicia for misreading a situation, only then to get proven wrong literally the next episode.

PrivateXimmy

???

PrivateXimmy

don't think too hard

Easy Mode - A.I

Yes its 1 of my favorite mcu movies

Michael

Hell are you on about?

Bolo The Wise

Groot did die that’s baby Groot, his son and at the very end that was Howard the duck another Marvel character. They actually made a movie of Howard the duck way back in the 80s. It’s super corny and has duck nudity.

Daisy Azuras

and then they replaced rocket raccoon in marvel heros, for making a gender joke. F Rocket

Easy Mode - A.I

im not entirely sure why this movie doesnt do this, maybe to keep it PG-13, but the curse words they use in this universe/system - instead of fuck, it's "flark" - & instead of shit, it's "scut"

Yagi di Hoshi

make sure to watch doctor strange before continuing since it should have been seen prior to winter soldier

GT QcNumber1 Vézina

its been awesome to see

Ellerian

I forgot how good is this movie, I know it was good but man, it is really REALLY good.

Cybers Link

She's gonna be quoting Knuckles for the entire movie. "You know, Brie Larson, whenever someone calls attention to the breaking of gender norms it ultimately undermines the concept of gender-equality by implying that "this is an exception, not the status quo".

N00B

shes gonna go through all of them, whether good or bad

Draconic

Thor 2 is Interstellar level compared to Captain Marvels movies

Ben Yokes

weird, I thought she said she liked Iron Man 3 more than 2

PerfectYarn

really happy i subscribed this year. came for the one piece reactions, stayed for the movie reactions. cant wait to see what the next year brings

Connor Devine

Great reaction! Hopefully you watch the next one soon, it's probably the best in the series.

Lazy Swordsman

Everything up to end game at is worst is at least watchable. After end game though... yikes xD

Jasmin Jakobsen

6:50 I totally agree, no one did something apprehensible but the situation was unfortunate. you could argue that leaving the child unattended at that moment was wrong and the grandpa was the caretaker at that moment but you can understand why he would make that mistake.

Silver Blade

I don't think it suffers the same way Thor 2 does, I think the boring villain works with the goofyness from the Guardians. Ronan himself is forgettable because of it, but I wouldn't say that harms the enjoyment of the movie so I wouldn't dock points.

Aye Jaye

She watched Thor 2, there's no point in skipping movies now on the basis of whether they're shit or not. Also Captain Marvel wasn't even worse than Thor 2

Aye Jaye

Rocket Raccon is James Gunns favorite too

MenacingScone

I remember watching this in theatres on release and I was 16 at the time. I also got a tear when the Groot scene happened.

Crazyone

On the 0% chance you ever get to it, feel free to skip The Marvels and Captain Marvel her movies are absolute garbage

Ben Yokes

Nah

Ben Yokes

The movie was still great

Ben Yokes

Nah I mind

Ben Yokes

Depends on how she is watching them chronologically gotg2 would be next but if it’s release order you got ultron, ant-man, civil war, and doctor strange before we get to gotg2. Honestly down either way I’ve never seen ultron, civil war, and doctor strange so I’m along for the ride

Nightmareman99

If I remember correctly, I think MTV screwed Marvel over. It was their insistence that Howard be a physical puppet. This lead to so many issues with filming, the coists shot through the roof, and scenes just felt weird.

KatoBen

I'm so glad she loved this movie. I've been waiting endlessly to finally see her react to this one. I still remember when the trailers came out and everyone dismissed the film believing the film to not be worth the watch. I can't wait for her reaction to Guardian's 2 and 3, but damn, at the rate these come out, it's going to take forever.

KatoBen

Nah Alicia. You missed my new years and that is unacceptable. L

TurdManJones

Ben: “So the only thing you did was stop drinking beer?” Andy: “Yeah. I lost fifty pounds in one month.” Ben: “How much beer were you drinking?” Andy: “I know, right? Probably too much.”

Lazy Swordsman

I think Disney+ correctly skips into all five scenes.

GavinGamePad3DS

and now we have the 4th chris in the mcu. lmao

marlanes

A lot of people grump about the dance-off bit in the final battle, but I think it's legitimately genius. Ronan is a lifelong warrior, bred across generations to be the ultimate Kree soldier, a zealot and fanatic. The perfect tactical mind. At the apex of his near-victory... the foe begins dancing. And his brain short-circuits, because he has no preprogrammed response to that.

Bologna Amputation

I can't believe we are already at Age of Ultron i am excited

Craig

Except everything else about the movie is fun af and the heroes have charisma

Craig

fun fact: chris pratt/ starlord dropping the orb in the scene with the collector was a blooper they left in cause they felt it was in character for peter

Steve Cushman

Unfortunately this movie suffers the same way Thor the dark world did. Terribly boring villain that puts you to sleep when they are on screen.

donald johnson

there's a couple of clips in the credits before the end scene in Guardians vol.2 so you might want to be careful if skipping. I think there are 5 scenes including the end.

Luke

One of Marvels best movies, and one of their best trilogies, all 3 are gold.

Draconic

“Four billion units Rocket!” Maybe not such a good idea to shout in a room full of outlaws?

Ben Gross

To me at least, Guardians of the Galaxy breathed fresh air into a franchise that was quickly growing stale. I think it really helped that, unlike Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, and Hulk, I knew absolutely nothing about Guardians going in, so when my brother-in-law and I went and saw this in the theater, it was one of the best things I had seen in quite awhile.

jdoggivjc

Happy new year to Alicia and all the good weebs here on patreon, So glad we get GotG as the final viedo of the year.

Wil DeYoung

James Gunn

Jay SMARTASS

Next up is "Avengers: Age of Ultron", after that is "Ant-Man",

Grandmasta

Damn, you been getting a lot better at remembering names of characters

Ben Gross

Happy New Year

GrimPitbull

I'm so excited for the next one, Avengers Age of Ultron. An absolutely underrated movie, every bit as good as the other Avengers movies with great scenes and action.

Lee Aguera

Alicia’s Marvel Ratings Captain America: The Winter Soldier 9.5/10 Iron Man - 8/10 Avengers - 8/10 Captain America: The First Avenger - 8/10 Iron Man 2 - 7.5/10 Thor - 7/10 Thor: The Dark World- 6/10 Iron Man 3 - 5/10 Incredible Hulk - 4/10 Guardians of the Galaxy - ?/10

Broford

to be fair Groot says 5 words. We, I, Am, Are, and Groot.

Ryan Hayes

Ah, yes, the guardians, the dungeons and dragons campaign on space

Faroth

Fun bit: the Power Stone holds power equal to ALL ENERGY IN THE UNIVERSE in that singular ingot. Have fun with what that entails to all who have held it!

chronostorm

I was actually legit thinking man .. I hope she watches Guardians soon ..

CrazyChameleon

The Guardians of the galaxy series are definitely my favorite movies of the mcu. They are all great watches, so happy you loved this one.

Sam Smith

I've noticed she's been watching them roughly in release and Phase Order so if memory serves next one will be Age of Ultron. As a side note I don't think any of us would mind if her fiance joined her for these.

nandyroo94

Thank you for all the fun content in 2024! looking forward to more in '25

RED-EYED GH05T

No marvel movie rating this time?

AG

My final note: the end credit scene features Howard the Duck He was an early attempt by Marvel to make a movie of their comic book characters but the movie bombed. I think this was Marvel's attempt to gage whether fans were ready to give him another chance.

EthanEverhart

I read he actually improved the scene by dropping it on purpose without telling the director, convincing them it was an accident.

Lofti

Girl do what you gotta for january. We will stick it out.

Craig

Get ready for the best soundtracks ever with these movies

PastyKratos

God honestly one of my favorite marvel groups the cast is just so stacked and James Gunn’s writing is just so fun. Yes vin diesel play a tee that only ever says one word. He also went through and voiced his lines in 15 other languages 😅😅😅. And god I fkin love Dave Batista dude is literally a gentle gaint and has been poppin off his movie career since this film doing all kinds of different role. Gos I just love that man. And there is a reason why the camera didn’t track when Peter dropped the cube. Because it wasn’t international Pratt did drop it and they left it in because it fits his character. Yondu’s gibberish scene was also ad libbed

Nightmareman99

chris pratt actually did drop the orb on accident during the take and they thought it was funny so they kept it in, thats why the camera doesnt pan down at all, nobody actually expected it to happen.

adam csirik

Absolutely one of my favorite movies of all time! Hope you enjoyed it. Happy New Year to you as well!

Trystan Ashmead

Spend time with your man, man.

Robert Traeger

Happy New Year

Tommy Thamert

Happy new year rats!

D Gaijin

46:20 i think the animators f*cked up on Groots lip-sync cause that did NOT match

Pixel King

Watch Uncharted Alicia! the movie

Joyo Boy

You can also tell throughout that Yondu wasn't going to kill Quill, even when he captured him on his ship I'm pretty sure he was waiting for him to talk his way out of it. Probably knew straight away the Orb wasn't in the ball as well

iAmPimmiCue

Also to note, yes Chris Pratt was chubbier. He lost a lot of weight just for this role. When his character returned to Parks and Rec they made reference with the joke, "So all you did was cut out beer?"

EthanEverhart

Morag: the abandoned planet My grandma's name is Morag and when this came out she was starting to go thru the "nobody every visits me" phase, so when my family saw this in theaters we lost it

EthanEverhart

Drax smiling to peter, during groot overkilling some goons at the hour 48 min mark, was my favorite part 😂

NixTWD

Happy New Year! Star Lord kicking the Space Rats and our Rat Queen laughs at it... Are we in some kinda conflict with our space bound selves? 😆

RedRam-Ipsen

My favourite joke in this film, "That guy's eye", "no, no we done". "i need it , its important to me". The childish snicker as he laughs it off, rocket is such a piece of shit for that xD, especially knowing that not so long ago peter fell for it and just robbed some guys leg. I know he paid for it but still, rocket must have fucking loved that. Great humour.

SomePirateNamedSigh

Guardians 1 & 2 are my favorites in the series, 2 is better IMO, but they're both peak. They always get tears out of me, but they also have some of the best comedy. Denarian Dey is a fantastic character, and I love pretty much all his scenes. Gunn is really good at that, honestly.

dz1jgmeyer

Peter dropping the orb not just look accidental it was an accident the just kept the scene cause they thought it was funny

Furo

4 movies and then the 5th would be GoTG2, then the 17th movie after that would be GotG3 so 23 movies til seen em all

chris johnson

Rocket really is the best and so is this trilogy! :D

Matt Rivers

how many movies until GotG 2 & 3?

TwojaStaraIFrytki .

this reaction will help ease the pain of my hangover 😂

Tyre Willis

i see it like a phoenix, same person restarting from zero, diferent yet the same

millecamps

I love that the only time in the entire film that Gamora looks genuinely afraid is when Peter tries to rope her into the dance-off.

Liesmith

Happy New Year !!!

Sunforoni

Happened in Kung Fu Panda too, I swear it’s a skill at this point

Gunnar

It’s a completely different person lol, same race/species though. Just compare the faces

Gunnar

Am I insane or is the wife of the Nova Corps offiser the same girl that was on Peter's ship at the start of the movie?

Veteran Ghost

Happy New Year!!

V_VMat

the funny thing is chris pratt really did drop the orb by accident and picked it back up it was a accident and they left it in the film because it fits peter personality

vork88

Fun fact when he dropped that orb that was scripted it was an accident they kept in the film

Uncle Urdnot

Seeing the video upload: "Oh awesome, I'm so pysched to see Alicia react to this!" 5 seconds into the movie: "Oh fuck I forgot how it started."

Liesmith

45:00 Ah, yes. Alicia in a PayDay heist, I see.

N00B

The Guardians have been my favorite for a while and I still tear up every time Groot says"we are Groot"

Ronix

Counterpoint, he is Groot.

Liesmith

Little disclaimer: The Groot in the jar is not the same Groot. He's more a newborn of the same species.

Wrantheim

Gotg 3 is gonna kill her.

Adam Lawson

Can I get a tldr of why that theory exists?

Michael

That comment Alicia made about thinking that Chris Pratt was supposed to be more chubby. 🤣 Like he wasn't going to get in shape to "star" in a superhero movie.

Michael

WHAT?!?! WHEN IS HE BEING ADDED TO THE AVENGERS?

Michael

Shhhhh

Michael

Really? I didn't know that was another groot. I had assumed it was a clone of himself that he saved.

Michael

That line where you said, they mowing the lawn made me feel real icky. Took me out of the reaction.

Gustavo Buenrostro

Starting off the new year with a banger I see!

Michael

One of the better movies from the MCU imo. I will be most trhrilled for Infinity War though as that is my favorite. That movie is still a yearly watch for me but I also love to go back and see Alicia react to the clues left in the earlier movies.

Maumao

Yooooo my favorite marvel franchise

WillGlacier

What a great way to start the new year

Karma

i love how after alicia finds out why he wants to be called star lord she just says ok so he is star lord peter quill who dat

EnderStine

This movie is Absolute Cinema ✋️😎✋️

The Legendary Husquin

It's actually a character from the comics named Cosmo the Spacedog. They definitely are a reference to Laika though.

Malcorpse

Kinda, that would be the real world thing, in Marvel it is Cosmo the Spacedog, he is a telepath as well as telekenetic and has psionic abilities

Elaharra

One of my favorites! Glad you had fun Alicia!

Michael Mavis

My favorite trilogy!

ElevenZero

When you did the Iron Man reaction, you asked who our favorite MCU heroes were, and I decided it was maybe too much of a spoiler to name a character you hadn't seen yet. So I can finally say that my favorite MCU hero is Rocket.

Nicholas Reed

Okay, between the Marvel films, and the Lord of the Rings, I have to say. Alicia, you gotta stop having favourite characters. You liking a movie character is a fucking omen.

Ishakuro

Fun fact: Starlord was not supposed to drop the orb when he went to show it to the Collector but they decided to keep the moment in the movie when Chris Pratt dropped it by accident.

Kinji

Meant to say guess not guys but it works either way so ah well lol and yes indeed, what a great reaction it was!

Disciple Of Shaco

I got to see a several minute long preview at Disneyland of the beginning with starlord retrieving the orb. Knew I was in for a treat when the full movie came out. Glad you enjoyed it, and I’m looking forward to your reactions to 2 and 3. Happy new year!

Andrew birds

Next would be Age of Ultron.

Hotaru Tomoe

Based 2025 gift!

scatman's world

I know. She's going to be absolutely emotionally fucked when Volume 3 happens.

Michael McKnight

This was a gift, thank you Alicia. Best MCU franchise. People mocked this movie before release because they hired James Gunn, a guy who, prior to this, was best known for two razzies. Now he's kind of a cinematic super-star because of his work on all three Guardians Of The Galaxy movies and the sequel to Suicide Squad. Currently he is taking up the Kevin Feige Marvel role in the DC movies, but none of his DC movies have released yet, so we'll have to wait and see on those.

Kevin Bartelen

Yeah so this is why I was so hyped about you finally getting to guardians, movie in general, mainly rocket, whole movie is awesome as hell but mainly rocket, we love our mischievous furry little trash panda, he's a little shit, but he's our little shit :)

TheGodofCruelty

sorry to be the one to tell you this, but groot did die in this movie. the little guy in the pot is essentially his son, groot junior.

Ignis Flame

I know it wasn't actually that long since the last Marvel movie but I feel like I was waiting so long for this one since I love Guardians so much <3

RussellSD

she gonna cry like a bitch on the 3rd

Miguel Luna

The collector's place blew up as the clock struck midnight.

WatcherNumber6

One of the best in the MCU, number 2 is better in my opinion. But both are great. Also the Ant-Man going up Thanos's butt was a meme that was going around about how the avengers' would beat thanos, it's just a joke.

Jonathan Canfield

The next one is quite contentious i feel among the fans. I personally like it but i feel it gets a lot of shit

Immeasurably Me

Still one of the best MCU movies. The found family aspect of these movies is just so good. James Gunn always kills it.

DeVaunBeats

idk if its just me but i would love to have a movie or any reaction with Rich in it, even if he doesn't say much lol i think it would be cute to see your interactions while reacting!!!

Spicy Noodles

happy new year!!

KuroOberon

56:53 Drax is a big hit among the autistic community

Trevor Appel

The leg scene is the best. if you go back and listen when Rocket is first asking for it, he can barely contain his laughter.

Soul

We totally understand if january is slower! Our rat queen must stay healthy! And prosper!!!

NixTWD

The Peter dropping the orb in front of the collector was an accident Chris Pratt slipped up and they just kept it in

Prince of the Saiyans

The final video of the year for me. It's currently 11 for me

Karma

Ooh you're in for a real treat with this one!

Arian Khalil

Somehow always forget how sad the first few minutes are

Rowdeemunkee

True definition of " a win is a win"

jac jacob israel

Queue the infinite comments about how Chris Pratt did actually accidentally drop the orb and that is was unscripted.

Michael

1:07:53 That must be Laika, the dog the Svoiet Union put in space.

Anzac-A1

Well gee, I’m thinking I’m gonna watch a couple SpongeBob reactions and go to bed but then this gem of a reaction drops??? Guys I’m staying up way later than I should!

Disciple Of Shaco

This movie still has one of the best soundtracks of all time.

TurtleKungFu

Still 2024 for me!

Jamie Vatarga

I liked this movie sure enough, but I didn't love it. The opening emotional whiplash I tell you damn. The movie I'm looking forward to a lot is the next one. Of boy will I have a lot to say then. Thank you always for the reaction Alicia!

YukoValis

Glad to have joined up this year. Happy new year to everyone! Looking forward to enjoying more content in 2025!

Austin

When this movie came out my own mom was still in the hospital. COPD was kicking her ass n tgey couldn't keep fluid off her lungs. She'd had a lot of chemical scaring from being an air force base cleaner too so the odds wete against her. But she BEAT cancer. I didn't get to say goodbye, I got to say see you later after a talk about plans for the next year and fighting. I don't even remember how I got from work to the hospital, but I remember her room and all of us there. The opening scene always wrecks me, same lighting, same crowded room, just hits a bunch of spots. Glad my cousin came to comfort me in the hall cause I could NOT stay in that room for long

Afell Tale

Everytime I see a Marvel upload it makes my whole day! I love your reactions and insight to all the things you watch! Thank you so much for continuing this franchise!

SolidFiction

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! these Marvel reactions have easily become a highlight for me. Edit: Shit for got to say, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nym

This is the movie that started Chris Pratt's movie career. He came from Parks and Recs into this. He lost a lot of weight and got into shape for this movie.

Roto

Happy New Year! 🎆🌍🥂🫂🇨🇭🎉 I'm thankful for your reactions and watching Anime/Cartoons together with you!

Chamoun101

Zhongdonian

Now time for part 2

Demonsabath67

A fun theory is that (Peter) Starlord's grandmother is the blonde dancer in the Captian America First Avenger movie that got him to sign an autograph. Many also believe they had a one night stand and she pregnant which would make Peter Cap's grandson..👍...you can find many videos on Youtube on that Theory...👀

Jay SMARTASS

It's a 2025 miracle

BigNotori
