Got to see it last night with my kids.
I found it interesting how much they focused on the relationships and interactions between the characters, rather than plot.
Other than that, it failed to connect with me. I liked the first one more. For some reason the movie just couldn't keep my attention.

It is an excellent example why movies need a through-story of some kind; its difficult to stand on subplots alone. Without some kind of driving force, the subplots can begin to feel as if they are simply meandering with no sense of urgency to tell their story.
 
Does anyone know if the cassette tape of Vol. 2 will be available? I got the first one on eBay when they sold it on record day but I haven't heard anything about this one.

Indeed. Meandering is a perfect description for this movie.

This Tweet from Gunn says that there will be, but not for a while.

9.5/10.

The MCU's best movie since GOTG1.

Agreed. 9/10 for me. I thought it was the best MCU film since Winter Soldier honestly. I think its as terrific as the first one and its just a blast from beginning til end. And its just as moving, if not more so.
 
Just saw the film, not getting the mixed reviews.... I enjoyed it as much, if not more, than the first.

I really enjoyed Drax and Yondu this time around and Mantis was a great addition.
 
Loved the movie just as much as the first one! Lots of Marvel characters in it!! Keep an eye out for them!

Speaking of which...

Were the guys Stan Lee was talking to related to The Watcher? They certainly reminded me of him. I only know because of Ultimate Alliance. :lol

Bautista and Rooker steal the movie. They are fantastic and the material Gunn gave them is pure gold.

Gunn is the last game in town when it comes to the MCU, given that this movie:

-Blows away the safe and generic Civil War
-Consolidates Doctor Strange as the crapola that it was even further
-Reminds us what a corporate turd Ant-Man ended up being
-Craps all over AOU by knowing how to balance its tone without ruining the movie and its villain

I just wish Gunn was directing IW instead of the Russos.
 
People ***** there's not enough character development, then when they get it they ***** theres not enough action and plot... The movie was great. I got the feeling both are meant to be watched as one big movie.
 
75-80/100 for me. Solid film, wish it aged like the rest of the MCU. I like Groot, but I'm getting annoyed by all this Baby Groot ****. Fun film, but Logan takes best CBM so far this year. Polar opposites, I know, but this was just another Ant-Man.
