"This one here is our booty!"

Okay, I'll be the first one to admit that if this film wasn't part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I probably wouldn't see it.  However, I'm glad it is because from all the buzz and the trailer and features released this week it looks pretty good:

Full-length trailer:


No Rocket in the trailer but this feature has Bradley Cooper as Rocket saying the one line in the post title:


There's also a great feature onGamora, played by Zoe Saldana, which shows some of the filming of her fight scene with Karen Gillan's Nebula. While the response to the trailer release has been reported to be overwhelmingly male, I have a feeling having two strong female characters with a reputation as assassins is going to strike an chord with the female audience.


Marvel also release features on the other characters:

Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel):


Drax:


Star-lord/Peter Quill:

Captain America Trailer #1 and its Corresponding Lego Version

Just for kicks, try playing these at the same time side by side, even with the sound on.  It's pretty funny how accurate the Lego version is (except for the Batman and Spiderman easter eggs, which are obviously not in the original).
