Guardians of the Galaxy Extended Trailer Review

This week, Marvel Studios had released an extended trailer for their upcoming film, Guardians of the Galaxy, and it has taken the internet by storm.


When I first heard that they were making this movie, I was initially skeptical. I have not read any of the comics that this is based on, (it is based on a lesser known Marvel comic series) and the concept seemed weird to me. A superhero group made of a human, a pinkish man, a green woman, a talking raccoon, and a talking tree? Yeah, a lot of people were initially skeptical as well.

However, I have since gotten used to the bizarre concept. And now we are less than a month from its release. 

Now to review the trailer. The previous trailers had convinced me that this film may have potential, and this trailer looks similar to them. However, the main thing that it separates it from the rest is that shows a bit more of the characters and how they interact with each other. The most notable instance of this in a scene near the end, in which Starlord (the human) tells the group that he has "12 percent of a plan". 

Arguably the best part of the trailer is Rocket Raccoon. The raccoon is voiced by Bradley Cooper, and his attitude is very entertaining. I think it would be interesting to see him in a full movie.

Anyway this trailer continues to set up the mood for a fun movie. It's light, humorous, thrilling, and sure to please fans of the comics.
