GotG was the only Marvel property I'm remotely interested in, as it's barely a Marvel property. I would say the sooner capeshit dies the better, but I don't go to the theatres anymore anyway.
Hollywood is a cesspit filled with the most broken people humanity has to offer.

The reality is this- interest in comic book movies is waining. People have been following the MCU for the past 15 years, the momentum is impossible to maintain.
They had 2 options, take a break from it (wasn't going to happen) or pivot slightly and try and capture the next generation; Gen Z. They chose Gen Z and it hasn't panned out so far.
They need to massively slow down and improve quality and let the franchise breath and slowly pick up pace again.
That said, I'm looking forward to seeing Vol. 3. After that, who knows.

I goto see these with kids in 4DX it makes them slightly more entertaining as you're flung about and assaulted with all kinds of shit, takes your mind off how mind numbingly generic marvel movies have become and turns it into one big long 3D roller coaster ride

Critic's score is completely tainted since Chris Pratt is involved. Mario also got "mixed" reviews because Pratt.

No movie genre can dominate for so long. People eventually get tired if it. The quality has dipped for sure but I think it's superhero fatigue.
If they were smart they would shut all marvel movies down, sell merchandise and rides at their theme parks, and reboot it in 5 years this time w FF4 and XMen after people had a breather.
But quarterly profits means that will never happen and it will continue to be driven into the ground.

They definitely should reboot/delay it if this is true:
Mila Kunis Reportedly in Talks to Play Fantastic 4's The Thing
A new rumor has consumed Film Twitter ... with the notion that Marvel might gender-swap The Thing, and hire Mila Kunis to portray the beloved Fantastic 4 hero in the forthcoming 2025 flick.

But part of me is also curious of the dumper fire the current Disney writers will come up with.

Super hero fatigue has set in and partly because the first Guadiana gave them a paint by number way of making the movies. With more humor than before.
There is no way they would stop and come back. Too much money would be left on the table. And they waited to some extent for Star Wars and that was garbage.

Guardians of The Galaxy 1 is my favorite Marvel movie. Part 2 took me a while, but now I like it too. Part 3, somehow I don't like the trailers at all and Starlord looks like he doesn't want to play the role anymore.
Which I already noticed in this Holiday Special. But I don't think it will gross less than Ant Man 3. The characters are too well beloved for that.

Has there ever been a female Thing? I feel like there must have at some point. Rule 34 here we come

I've seen it advertised during the NBA playoffs. Those ad slots are about as expensive as they get these days.

Marvel is over, comic book movies are over. It’s back to Spider-Man and Batman being the only movies people care about.

I'm thinking that with The Last of Us and the Mario movies' runaway successes, we might see a lot more faithful video game adaptations being "the next big genre". I'd be alright with that until they, too, are driven into the ground.

I mean if reviewers aren't just gushing themselves over it then it's probably great 
Why do we still pretend like these limey bum sniffers are anything but human garbage and a waste of space.
Keen to see it, I hope it's good but after suicide squad I feel like gunns whole shtick is running thin...
But there is no way on earth it can be as bad as the latest marvel/disney crap made by mentally ill people

I feel like a lot of folks have riffed on Gunn style humor, making him a less unique experience. He also can go way off the rails when left to his own devices, he benefits from some left/right limits.
Be awesome if he knew he was jumping to DC and just made a giant mic drop f u to Marvel though

Capeshit was the worst thing to ever happen to cinema. The past decade and a half has been an abomination. Thank god it’s ending.

Eh, if Disney hadn't oversaturated the market with mediocre/sub par movies and series (phase 4) but instead kept giving us Ironman 1, Infinity War levels of quality throughout, there wouldn't be this fatigue I'd bet.

IMHO there's only a few characters in the MCU that has been written well and treated with respect by the writers and not devolved into some dumb caricature of themselves.
Tony Stark, Peter Parker, and Nebula.
Nebula is the only reason this movie might not be complete shit and why I might watch it, because they might still treat her character with some respect.
Everything else about the GotG schtick has gotten tiresome...Drax is still dumb, Mantis still useless, Starlord still a goof....what has changed?

There were 3 movies made for one of the most lame and useless characters even by comic books standards?

Maybe Gunn failed the movie to support his DC career /s
Marvel movies and shows have dropped so hard in quality, it’s not even funny anymore. The writing is bad, the stories they tell are getting worse and worse all the time and even the new big bad’s actor is scarier in real life.

It is weird/sad/hilarious to see DC trying out this EU thing again, since it's so clear that the fad is in its last days. This applies to Nintendo too as they need to resist the temptation to get greedy after SMB.
People invested all this time into the MCU for over a decade and they're not going to do it again. The story wrapped up with the last Avengers and it seems obvious to me that people were like "welp, that was fun, what's next?" and the answer to that wasn't more Marvel shit, except with worse characters and boring/uninteresting stories.
