Moondragon makes more sense
Creates story for Drax and interesting character interaction and could build up to Infinity Gauntlet

I pretty much agree as far as Phyla-Vell goes. She'd be awesome, sure, but she'd require too much backstory explanation to just hit the ground running. More so if they do introduce Adam Warlock in GotG2.
As for Moondragon, she still can be Drax's daughter (& it'd make for some great storytelling), so there's a chance that it's her. Plus, like Adam Warlock, she can contribute to Infinity War.

I kind of really want to see Justin Bieber as Speedball at the beginning of Civil War.
oh god I want this
how much does it usually sell for? someone convince me to buy this totally unnecessary yet cool thing.
They were going for $100 or so on eBay before Disney started selling them online directly.

Can somebody explain something to me?
I rewatched Iron Man 1 recently, and in that movie, it seems like SHIELD is some small, new, unknown group that doesn't even decide on a name until the end of the movie.
But then jump ahead to Winter Soldier and Agents of SHIELD, and suddenly they're this enormous organization that's been around since just after WW2 that everyone knows about and has a giant building in Washington D.C.
Is there any explanation for this retcon, or is it just one of those things they hope people don't notice?

You have drawn an inaccurate conclusion here is all. Coulson is underselling them, and the name is definitely not undecided on. He's just playing it up for Marvel nerds, "oh man it was SHIELD all along," if people weren't paying enough attention to make an acronym out of the name.

Plus Iron Man was written before the scope of the MCU had been established. It presents what is basically the real world, except there's a rich guy named Tony Stark who builds a suit of armor.
It's a tiny retcon, but one should assume that during the time of IM1 SHIELD is fully established around the world. Though The Avengers suggests that the full scope of their resources had to that point been kept out of public view. Everyone was surprised by them having like, giant flying motherships.

Two things on that.
1) SHIELD seems to be as well-known as the FBI or CIA in the MCU. If that's the case, I feel like SHIELD would be a well-known acronym. Like if someone told me they were with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, I'd know they were talking about the FBI.
2) Tony and Pepper still don't seem to recognize the name SHIELD even after Coulson says it. You'd think they'd have had some sort of reaction to it.
I know, it's not really fair to pick it apart since the movie came before they'd really ironed out what the MCU was going to be. That still doesn't keep it from bugging me a little.

SHIELD always existed in it's larger capacity just not in the public eye. Fury reveals himself to Tony and tells him he's become a part of a bigger world. And in Iron Man 2 he tells Tony that he's dealt with stuff like him before. Tony outing himself to the public along with things like The Hulk and Captain America also coming out forced SHIELD to step out of the shadows.
Let's not forget that thanks to the events in the Avengers the general public get to know them. Also thanks to that SHIELD got even more funding from the WSC. Also, let's not forget HYDRA and whatever shennanigans they were running while noboby knew of them.

Pratt and Evans made their children's hospital stop here in Seattle today.
I've said it before & I'll say it again, those two are just class acts.
Great pair of guys. And damn even without proper lighting, high end capture material and photoshop that Cap costume looks amazing.
Good news.
Thank goodness for no symbiotes.

going off his tweet he didn't really confirm that there were no symbiotes in GotG2, just that there was no real rumors about it, because only 6 people know who's in the script, and none of them have leaked anything, so the internet is guessing, and not actually hearing things.
So if we take Gunn at his word, regarding GotG2, there is:
No Hulk
No Capt. Marvel
No Nova (?) and
No real rumors of symbiotes.
It's not like the movie needed any of those.going off his tweet he didn't really confirm that there were no symbiotes in GotG2, just that there was no real rumors about it, because only 6 people know who's in the script, and none of them have leaked anything, so the internet is guessing, and not actually hearing things.

I would argue that a Nova is needed in the GotG world, He came off later as one of Star Lords better comrades.
The other ones are nonsense and only interact with the GotG in the new run, which is shit,
I believe... that won't happen anytime soon.

Since Warlock is a big Thanos Antagonist and he was teased for two movies now, I am pretty sure that we will see him in Phase III.
Maybe only in Infinity War, but I am sure his opening cocon will be showen in the Post-Creditscene of Guardians 2.
I'm sorry the joke went over your head.
Eh, dont get me wrong, I didnt meant this im a offensive way.
No it was just a joke about the Universal Church of Truth and their stupid catchphrase. I'm embarrassed to even have to explain it!
Marvel is lame ass with reprinting Space stuff!No it was just a joke about the Universal Church of Truth and their stupid catchphrase. I'm embarrassed to even have to explain it!
(Last week I read my first Adam Warlock story :/)
I believe! there's nothing that cannot be achieved through faith.
Don't let me down Gunn
But Richie was really only in 1 issue of the 2008 run, & he never really was a Guardian to begin with.

Who the hell thinks Hulk or Symbiotes in the film would be any kind of good?
The guardians and him ( especially star lord and him staying behind to battle thanos in cancerverse)
Richie convincing aka motivating Peter to return out of the Kyln as Star-lord and help them, fight together in Annihilation.
Several moments in Annihilation Conquest. Richie was the one who recommended Gamora and Drax as guardians in the run.
They had lots of moments outside the Guardians comics but in Cosmic marvel in general
I realize that, I've read all of them. It's just that Richie isn't exactly required for the Guardians to excel.
Honestly, Marvel doesn't need Comic Con at this point. It's pretty obvious given the success of their phase 3 announcement event.
That being said, not sure if I'll go to Comic Con this year if they no show. It was easily the highlight of my vacation last year. I might still go just to enjoy the San Diego weather, but ehhhhhhh...

With how big that Phase 3 announcement turned out to be I wonder if they are focusing on their own yearly event like D23, Star Wars Celebration.
