Chris Pratt To Star In 'Guardians Of The Galaxy' Movie

This is him at this worse and current:

and this is him at his best:

He was ripped for Zero Dark Thirty and will have to get ripped again for his role as Star-Lord.

I love the casting btw. He's a comedian actor who has proven can act seriously when needed. A mix that is required for this movie where he will be dealing with a talking Racoon and Tree.

You know what i'm scared about?
That Racoon. Well, and Ant-Man, but they have time to work on that.

How are they going to make him not comic relief.
Everybody remembers jar-jar.

they can make him like Ted the bear :lawl:

holy frak he got big. first time i remember him was in the jason segal movie and then 0 dark 30. man to be honest, one of these marvel / comic movie is going to be a flop.

I think ant-man will be a flop... I always hated his character because of his stupid power.

Guardians of the Galaxy is the most surprising direction by marvel. It's a recent comic that came out in 2008 and largely unknown to most people. It's the most out-there movie too.

Unless they make it very obvious I doubt a lot of people will even know it is connected to the MCU

There's a 1969 version as well (completely different team) but I don't know how well it was received.

Isn't Iron Man part of the new team?

If anything they may just borrow elements from the 1969 version but its definitely not based on it at all.

And yes, the new relaunch of the issue has iron man in it.

They are harsh catering the comics to the films a little too much if you ask me.

the only connection to the original guardians is through Major Victory / Vance Astro

not sure if he'll be in the movie though considering he's supposed to have captain americas shield

I can't wait for any of these projects. *excited*

What I'm also waiting for is a Justice League movie. When is THAT going to come out? Only Chris Nolan's Batman has been successful thus far. We'll see how this new Superman does as well. I thought Ryan Reynolds was okay as Green Lantern, just that the script sucked ass as well as the choice of main villain. Having Blake Lively as Carol Ferris helped. :p

James Gunn director of Guardians of the Galaxy tweeted:

@JamesGunn: Happy birthday to my great pal @SethGreen, who will hopefully be joining me in London soon (and, no, not because I’m casting him as Drax.)

is he voicing the raccoon?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! :(

Jason Momoa Won't Join Guardians of the Galaxy - IGN

Thank God, every movie he's been in sucked.

werd im not a fan of momoa; he's also why i wasn't interested in seeing Bullet to the Head in theatres

Robert Downey, Jr. on Leaving Iron Man and Tony Stark
 

Imo, it'd be better to lead into the story of War Machine and having Tony Stark fall into the depths of alcoholism

I think that's what the were aiming at for the 2nd movie (alcholism) but I guess they decided to downplay it a bit.


I understand that the MCU is the biggest thing in superhero movies right now but it started with RDJ. Does it have enough legs to move on by itself without him?

I think they'll need to bring in a new hero that has just as big an impact as RDJ did to be able to move on without him. Right now, Evans, Hemsworth, and the rest aren't enough.

I doubt it, but I hope Guardians of the Galaxy really blows everyone away.

it doesn't sound like he won't be Tony anymore it sounds more like they're negotiating

Robert Downey is posturing for a nice paycheque with his "no sweat off my back"

Marvel is like "yeah we have backup plans"

Some concept art for Ironman armors were leaked:

I wonder if that space one ties in with guardians of the galaxy? :x

I see a hulkbuster armour in there.

I don't like the hulk buster one. It reminds me of the hunchback of notre dame hahaa.

That organic looking one looks interesting though.

I can't waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait!
