Watched it in IMAX 3D and it was amazing. I wish I had an IMAX/3D screen of my own...
The movie was amazing. Loved it all. The heartbreak moments, the laughter... it was all just incredible. I thought Gunn and crew did an above and beyond job on how literally one second you're amazed at the sequences, then you're feeling down and sad about what happened and then the next second laugh and it all felt natural, nothing forced. To go from one emotion to the next like that... wow. That was impressive to me.
THANOS! OH-EM-GEE! I squealed like a happy little girl when he appeared and talked! I looked over to my friend and then back at the screen with such enthusiasm seeing him with his presence on the screen like that!
COSMOS WAS IN THE MOVIE! YES!YES!YES!YES!YES! :rockon: :rockon: :rockon: :rockon:
The only disappointing part of that is not hearing him telepathically talk in Russian. BOO! But still!
Howard the Duck was cool. I liked how he looked. His few seconds on screen is a gazillion times better than the entire movie of his from the 80's.
I really liked the mention of J'son, Star-Lord's dad. Peter's mom dying... that scene felt so real (again, Gunn and crew, hats off to you all) that I am not ashamed to admit I cried a bit. It was sad and so heartbreaking. It definitely gave the scene where Peter yelled at the guard to take off his walkman more... gravitas, let's just say for the lack of a better word.
Rocket and Groot! Man were they such a huge highlight of the movie. Rocket's characterization was extremely spot on. And seeing a Celestial?! AN ACTUAL CELESTIAL AND WALKING AROUND AND EVERYTHING?! Such a huge geek-gasm. Oh man.
Star-Lord dancing to distract Ronan was pure brilliance. Chris Pratt could not have done a better job as him. :lol:
The history of the Infinity Gems was amazing. Seeing all of them (I wish they were named on screen) and then seeing the one they had in the shape of a gem like in the comics was so cool.
I need to see this again.
:heart: THANOS & COSMOS!!!!!!!!! :heart:
