Not just a rumour anymore - it's fact!

No Moondragon?
Anyway, Adam Warlock = The Shit

We'll see how the final roster shakes out.

Would Disney curb the bisexual angle with Phyla-Vell, if Moondragon is there?

Nah they won't allow los lesbos.

need a good strong actor to portray Adam Warlock..

I'm waiting to hear who the director will be.

Nathan Fillion as Starlord maybe? Would love it if Joss Whedon directed or wrote parts of the Guardians of the Galaxy. Not only for his knowledge of these characters but how similar the GOTG and Firefly crew written.

Good, now they have an excuse to resurrect Phyla.

Aw man so no Black Panther movie?! Damn it!

Which version of Drax do you think they'll go with?

Riddick version for sure. They should even throw in the same story of him crashing on Earth as an imprisoned Life Avatar and he changes into that form and sets out to kill all the other escaped inmates.

Old version of Drax is dull. The forming team will pick him up on the way throughout the film because he's a weapon against Thanos. Skip the whole Thanos responsible for his origin story. Just keep him an alien I say.


The rest of the film should be StarLord gathering criminals to serve the Galactic good. Alot of comedy. Epic action and massive unstoppable threats.
And Rocket Racoon has to lose that accent! Capcom voice sucks he ain't Cockney and he never was. Give him a cute voice but rough personality.
Groot is Groot, pretty hard to mess up.

Concept art looks great, but I'm hoping it will look even better on the big screen.

- Starlord needs his helmet to go alot with his epic mask. His guns should be smaller tho.
- Rocket's guns needs to be bigger.
- Drax should lose that vest and trade in for some different daggers
- Where's Warlock?!
- Gamora needs more cleavage

Needs more Nova though.

Really?

How in the phuck did Guardians of the Galaxy get greenlighted before a Wonder Woman film?

A proper analogy would be like a Doom Patrol flick before Wolverine.

Jebus H. Christ, DC. Get your head out of your ass. facepalm

Wonder Woman gets treated like this impossible project to pull off, and it really isn't. DC just acts stupid about most things not World's Finest related. They honestly thought the live action series that got scrapped (thank god) was a good idea.

looks swool

I think star lord should lose the cap and get a helmet. but that's pretty bad arse

maybe Warlock with have a smaller role?

If they get a series going with GOTG, then start out with these core members and expand through future films. Adam Warlock should perhaps be saved, until the epic confrontation with Thanos happens - whether that's in Avengers 2 or elsewhere. He's his nemesis, more than anyone.

James Gunn set to direct this movie

I agree that they should have gone full helmet with Starlord. His helmet goes down as one of the most badass looking helmets in history. Otherwise everything else looks cool to me.

The thing is, Marvel is a comic book company that now makes movies while WB is a movie company that so happens to own a comic book company. different priorities.

I just wonder who's going to play Rocket Raccoon...

Seth MacFarlane?

I heard that certain movie houses hold the rights to certain DC characters, which is why Justice League has been put on hiatus. Apparently Batman and Superman can not appear in the same movie until the various movie houses rights run out. Wonder Woman's rights may be owned by a movie house with too little resources to produce the film, which could suck, because it takes a while before they lose the rights, and those rights return to DC.

...

...

...

Warner Bros, owns the movie rights to all of DC's superhero properties. They have since the 60s.

I think a few Vertigo properties were shopped out, but Warner had the right of first refusal and opted not to develop those properties.

Really? A co-worker of mine was reading an article all about this subject, and was explaining why the Justice League had not been released yet to several of us, when we got into a little discussion over it. I don't doubt that you may be right, but he seemed very knowledgeable on the subject so...

Saw that it sad but I never new this of Marvel= Marvel Studios is notorious for its hardball negotiation tactics and low-salary offers (unless, of course, you're Robert Downey Jr.) and Momoa (and his reps) wouldn't be the first to balk at Marvel's offer. What do you think of any of these guy for the role? Marvel reportedly also screen-testing Isaiah Mustafa (yes, the Old Spice guy), MMA fighter and former wrestler Dave Bautista (The Scorpion King 3, The Man With the Iron Fists), and Brian Patrick Wade (Generation Kill) at the time.

He's not much of an actor range-wise, but he certainly has the physique, and plays a tough guy well enough, so he should be all right.

I'm pumped for this movie. They better make Gamora a badass.

What an awful choice. I'v had the displeasure of watching both The Man with the Iron Fists and House of the Rising Sun and he was utterly terrible in both.

It's worrying that they selected an actor of Dave's, uh, caliber.

Should be good!

I trust James Gunn's decision for picking this wrestler turned actor for the role.

Although she seems like a marketing choice, she has the face and athleticism to achieve the role.

She just needs to tone up. Get some muscle tone. Her facial features ala Google definitely suit Gamora.
I think she's an excellent choice. I'd bang her in a heart beat.

This movie needs an A-lister at some point. The casting choices have been suspect so far. As excited as I am for this movie, the public may not be.

I think the casting has been fine for the most part, personally.

They really do need Jason Statham as Rocket Raccoon to make this movie awesome.

I thought the same until a friend showed me recent pictures of him. He has usually been overweight in his TV roles. But now he looks the part.

He definitely has the attitude and charisma. I believe he's going to surprise you.

Well I'm not saying he couldn't fit the role, it's just, what made someone think of him in the first place?

It's just the audition process. Once upon a time, Hugh Jackman and Chris Hemsworth were unknown actors, coming out of relative obscurity to play Wolverine and Thor. Some roles seem best filled by relative unknowns, while others get established stars and character actors (Batman, Iron Man, Hulk)

Chris Pratt is a versatile, talented actor imo, and I have no issue with him playing Starlord.

Plus, the guy's a total nerd.

Yeah, I personally prefer unknowns as their less distracting than known actors. Of course, if a famous actor/actress suits the role then I'm all for it. All in all, it comes down to who best fits the role.

Hemsworth
Jackman
Hiddleston

Interesting - though the modern Guardians roster is set, they are bringing back an original 1960's member, Yondu.

After the way the sold out the Mandarin, I wouldn't be surprise if they will kill off the GOTG like this. But I'm hoping they realized they can make more money if they keep the GOTG alive for future appearances.

Seems people have sending James Gunn their resumes though Facebook just so they can get a job on the movie.

How you so sure he's not paying Thanos?

Anyway, the fact that this is the only actor we know of in GotG that's signed up for other films screams Thanos to me. Plus he would be a great choice. I can also see him being a good choice for Rocket.

I don't think he's playing Thanos either. He doesn't seem to have the look or feel of Thanos. My guess would be the Magus.

I don't like the Collector and the fact. That Del Torois signed up for multiple movies suggest that the Collector is going to play a part in other films as well. Also it pretty much guarantees that Thanos will have a very small role in this film if at all due to the already massive cast. Hopefully it's Marvel just trolling us all right now...

more lolz.. They fired Terrance Howard because they didn;t want to pay him.. Weaving himself quit as he said he doesn;t want to do comic book films anymore

Yeah, lol. That happened because they weren't signed up for multiple films lol. For example, if Hugo was actually signed up for multiple films in his contract Marvel could have play Red Skull for the salary the contract claimed.

Anyway, still waiting for a source showing Marvel signs every major actor for multiple films like you claimed... Until you present such evidence you arguments are moot.

actually no, Terrance Howard made more money than both RDJ and Gwen Paltrow conbimed at the time of the first Iron Man film.. doesn;t take a genius to figure it all out

I eat my words regarding Hugo.

Still, not every actor is signed on to multi-picture deal. Yes, many are, but not all of them.

And why are you talking about Howard making more money than the rest of the IM cast? I already knew that.
