Got my tickets for me and the boy for sunday

Taking my daughter this evening. She’s now 14 so this is one of the last things we still do without it being inundated with teenaged girl angst.

But outside of this one, I have little to no desire to see any other Marvel related movies, and it's been like that since Endgame for me. Outside of catching the newest Spiderman trilogy a few months back, I've been off of basically everything Marvel/comic related. And while I don't love GotG, I did like the first two. So I'll definitely watch this one eventually. I hope it's as good as it's been talked about being.

I feel you. We waited for No Way Home, Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder to stream on Disney+. We haven't watched Wakanda Forever and probably won't watch Quantumania when it releases in two weeks.

Everything just feels like an afterthought since Endgame.

Going to watch it Sunday. Despite a bit of fatigue, I always thought that the Guardians franchise was some of the best due to Gunn's, ability to mix humor and raw human emotion.

Wakanda Forever,

i did not hate Wakanda Forever. No where near as good as BP (and I think the first BP was good.) i found the overall plot and conflict dumb, but i didn't hate it.

if you haven't seen it, Shang Chi is good as well. glad i didn't see either in theater but i liked them well enough.

This dour, visually off-putting two-and-a-half-hour A.S.P.C.A. nightmare of a film may only be for completionist fans. NY Times

Unfortunately, the film from writer-director James Gunn—the series mastermind and one-time prodigal son who has since departed the established playing fields of Marvel to become a co-overseer of the DC comics movie franchise—is less successful in its calculated efforts to convince its audience to care. Instead, it creates worlds that it either destroys or simply grows bored with moments later and reduces what should be complicated relationships into reductively earnest proclamations. The Observer

If Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is a mixtape, it's the one that your ex sends you after you break up with him, full of syrupy, sentimental tunes meant to reignite any last lingering sparks of feeling you may have once shared. It's "Seasons in the Sun" followed by "Alone Again (Naturally)" followed by "Everybody Hurts" followed by "The Christmas Shoes," and it serves only to remind you how right you were to dump the sappy chump when you did. NPR

I regret to inform you that the Guardians of the Galaxy as you know them are dead. What remains in Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3 are flickering remnants of fun times, but mostly maudlin bullshite. Mashable

i really havent watched any marvel content since the last spiderman.

I've enjoyed a lot of it up to now but fatigue and no excitement for upcoming projects.

that being said GoTG has been one of if not my favorite part of the marvel universe and am looking forward to it. Will probably be my last marvel watch for quite some time.

I've seen everything outside of Wakanda Forever, She-Hulk (which I'll probably never watch), and Ant-Man 3.

IMO, the hate for this movie went overboard. I enjoyed it.

It might be good. I haven't seen it. I may come around to watching it in a couple weeks, but if Jonathan Majors is fired as Kang due to his domestic issues what is the point?

Marvel's next big bad would be dead on arrival.
