• 0:09
  talking about Guardians of the Galaxy vol 3.

  Now, I'ma stay out front. The first part of this will be
• 0:20
  spoiler-free. So no worries, don't run away
• 0:22
  yet. But I will have time stamps in
• 0:26
  the description just to make know, and I will say, clearly
• 0:31
  one hour. We'll go into some spoilers for
• 0:33
  the movie itself, but I just kind of just want to talk up
• 0:36
  front about the movie in general and the franchise as a whole
• 0:42
  before diving into that stuff. So, so, yeah.
• 0:44
  So welcome. I hope everybody out there is
• 0:46
  doing well and yeah, I know, here at Daddy to talk, it's all
• 0:49
  about father in a family manga anime TV movies and video games,
• 0:54
  so Guardians vol 3, man. It is wild.
• 1:00
  Looking back that It has been almost 10 years since this
• 1:08
  Trilogy started started back in August 2014 with volume 1 and
• 1:15
  then volume to was May 2017. And now, here, we are met 2023
• 1:23
  and just kind of reflecting comes before I was recording
• 1:27
  this. Somebody made a personal.
• 1:30
  Hey, no 6-year anniversary for Since the release of volume 2
• 1:34
  and I'm like, wow has it really been that freaking long?
• 1:38
  Just because like for me personally so much of my life
• 1:41
  has changed in these past six years because May 2017 was a
• 1:47
  couple of months before I got married and six months before my
• 1:52
  son, that was born. So yeah.
• 1:56
  But looking back at when this all started, I had never really
• 2:01
  even heard of Guardians of the Galaxy had no clue for what any
• 2:05
  of this is but looking back. I can say that I have thoroughly
• 2:13
  enjoyed this cast of characters and everything.
• 2:19
  They've been involved in and even and before I forget, I got
• 2:24
  to give a shout out to the Guardians of the Galaxy video
• 2:28
  game that came out a couple of years ago.
• 2:31
  If you've just recently watched volume 3 or any of the Guardians
• 2:35
  movies and you're having an itch for more of these characters,
• 2:39
  but But a little bit different than I highly recommend checking
• 2:43
  out this Guardians of the Galaxy video game ended up being one of
• 2:45
  my favorites that came out that your gameplay was super fun.
• 2:51
  They did a very great job on the story and stuff of all the
• 2:55
  respective characters. Say yes I had it for sure to
• 2:58
  give give a shout out to that but but yeah but Guardians of
• 3:02
  the Galaxy. So going into this one with
• 3:07
  volume 3. Honestly you know I didn't
• 3:12
  really have much expectations going in you know because I know
• 3:17
  it's like hey anytime these characters are involved I know
• 3:20
  at least it's going to be a fun time.
• 3:23
  You know. We're going to have some great
• 3:25
  character moments with a nice mix of Comedy to kind of break
• 3:30
  up some of the more serious moments of stuff that happened
• 3:32
  throughout. And this movie was no different
• 3:35
  in that aspect. Now, this one, I feel feel like
• 3:40
  with this one, the kind of like overall theme of this movie was
• 3:46
  kind of like, Understanding getting to us as viewers getting
• 3:52
  to understand these characters better and a lot of them getting
• 3:55
  to understand each other better and at the core and Crux of all
• 4:03
  of this stuff was, of course rocket.
• 4:07
  And, you know, throughout the movies and stuff.
• 4:09
  You know, we've kind of gotten hints and stuff to kind of like
• 4:16
  let us know what, okay? This is rocket.
• 4:17
  Story. And I hints about guy he we know
• 4:20
  he was coming like tortured and stuff, no experimented on and
• 4:24
  things of that nature. But actually kind of getting to
• 4:27
  see that stuff in this movie, you know, what was definitely
• 4:33
  some, some, some tough moments. I'm, you know, to watch, but
• 4:39
  they did a fantastic job of doing his backstory and like I
• 4:44
  said, like the other characters, the rest of the team, Team Side
• 4:48
  characters and stuff. We're all still very enjoyable
• 4:52
  and stuff as well as they go on their journey to try to help
• 4:57
  rocket and things. He was going through in this
• 4:59
  movie, like said, keeping a spoiler free for now, but all I
• 5:05
  know, I'll say that this if If this is potentially the last
• 5:14
  Guardians of the Galaxy movie, that I feel like these
• 5:19
  characters went out on a high note, as far as like, where all
• 5:25
  the different characters and stuff for a left.
• 5:27
  At the end of this movie, I feel like it all made sense, you
• 5:32
  know. It makes sense.
• 5:33
  Why, you know, this person went to this place why that character
• 5:37
  went over there and so on. So forth.
• 5:42
  And that did that, just made me really happy.
• 5:45
  Definitely made me kind of tear up at the end, which I'll get
• 5:48
  into more description. I get this Brothers in a moment,
• 5:51
  but all in all, if, if you've enjoyed any of the past
• 5:56
  Guardians movies, then this is definitely a must watch.
• 6:00
  And, like I said, especially knowing that, this is probably
• 6:03
  the last at least. Maybe, like, last titled
• 6:07
  Guardians of the Galaxy movie, you know, they might Still, I
• 6:10
  wanted to surprise these characters still, of course,
• 6:13
  might show up elsewhere within the MCU and other movies and
• 6:18
  shows and different stuff, whatever like that.
• 6:20
  But, you know, I feel like that's kind of like the thing
• 6:23
  with getting involved in the MCU and stuff at this point of like
• 6:29
  these actors and stuff for committing, a lot of their life,
• 6:32
  a lot of their time to this, you know, this franchise because I
• 6:38
  hate, you know, like Said the, the Guardians movies, there's
• 6:43
  only three of them but they've been spread out across almost a
• 6:47
  decade. So yeah, it is just wild to
• 6:53
  think about, like suggest just that commitment and seeing who
• 6:57
  and where these characters were when this all started in 2014 to
• 7:01
  now, and 2020 39 years later were a lot of them are and some
• 7:06
  characters that, you know, we're in the series along the way or
• 7:09
  no longer Rent this by, so all I know, great, movie.
• 7:15
  Go watch the me. See, before I start diving into
• 7:18
  any spoilers stuff. Something just looking at my
• 7:21
  little notes real quick. Yeah, I think I think that's it
• 7:27
  as far as like, the spoiler free stuff.
• 7:29
  So like I said, if you haven't seen it, go watch it.
• 7:33
  And they come back, you know to to hear my thoughts on some
• 7:37
  more. Concrete details and stuff of
• 7:41
  the movie. I'm and I guess the last thing
• 7:43
  I'll kind of point out too is like, you know, the, the main
• 7:50
  villain of the movie are, what's his name?
• 7:51
  The Why is he called? Is it the Harmon, I think, I
• 7:57
  think I think I think they go. I think he goes by the harm on
• 8:01
  those who are watching the video version of this this actor who
• 8:05
  was also who was also in peace maker which he was a good actor
• 8:13
  and stuff there so but but you know this guy being the the kind
• 8:19
  of core Main villain of the movie and stuff and sometimes I
• 8:26
  sometimes you just need to move a villain that, you know,
• 8:32
  there's no Redemption for this person.
• 8:35
  It is. I know this person is just pure
• 8:37
  evil appear butthole and he needs to be dealt with because
• 8:42
  of things that he's done in the past.
• 8:43
  So, but but yeah. So from the villain to likes it
• 8:46
  all the characters in between and all the side characters are
• 8:49
  on the way. So, yeah, building was girl, I
• 8:53
  couldn't everybody else in between.
• 8:55
  So now, now we can jump into and to some spoilers and stuff for
• 9:00
  the movie. So, like I said, the, the Crux
• 9:03
  of it is following rocket and seeing everything from when he
• 9:11
  was an actual small, tiny baby raccoon, to the character he is
• 9:17
  today, Man, that was some some some tough moments to watch and
• 9:25
  especially and I'm going to be kind of like jumping around a
• 9:28
  little bit with my description because of course, I'm not here
• 9:31
  to recap, it beat for beat the whole movie, just some highlight
• 9:34
  moments. I just kind of want to talk
• 9:36
  about but hey, I'm finding this connection with these other
• 9:43
  animal creatures, Lila teef and floor was All in all, just so
• 9:54
  sweet to see. But also very sad and tragic
• 10:00
  because I know we all could probably have hoped for a better
• 10:10
  and for these characters, I hate maybe just maybe somehow they
• 10:13
  escaped, and they're living somewhere else in the Galaxy.
• 10:17
  But it's like Sally know the sad reality.
• 10:20
  Is that, you know, this, this main Villain.
• 10:23
  Like I said, I'd like so I believe his name is the high
• 10:25
  mine. Let me double-check the high
• 10:29
  evolutionary, that that's what he's called high evolutionary.
• 10:35
  I thought they'd I think I couldn't call him have mine just
• 10:37
  because he freaking kept on talking about getting Rockets
• 10:41
  Brian and all that stuff. But also the high evolutionary
• 10:48
  just wait like that characters obsession with rocket and
• 10:52
  everything. I knew he wasn't going to let
• 10:56
  these other these other characters that stuff go.
• 10:58
  But, but yeah, that, that was just a very sad and tragic
• 11:00
  moment when, you know, slowly and I like how I like how movies
• 11:11
  shows, whatever, show and don't tell and how throughout.
• 11:18
  The movie through in the flashbacks, whatever rocket was
• 11:21
  slowly Gathering pieces for this gadget, he was building to
• 11:25
  basically like it, like an Escape key card or whatever.
• 11:28
  But I like how like throughout the movie we saw him, I picking
• 11:30
  on my little pieces and taking it away and it's firmer or
• 11:33
  whatever. And then later on, he puts all
• 11:36
  these pieces together, make this gadget, I hate its goal about to
• 11:40
  escape but sadly you know, first Leila gets killed and then
• 11:47
  during the Even other Escape in The Mists of the gunfire floor
• 11:52
  and teef get taken out as well. And it was just so sad to see
• 11:57
  these characters go. But I do like how later on in
• 12:02
  the movie, The Moment where rocket was pretty much heading
• 12:06
  to the afterlife. How how you know he was a hey
• 12:12
  can I can I come with you guys? And I was like yes but then I
• 12:15
  like them on what she was like not yet though.
• 12:18
  Not yet you still have work to be done here.
• 12:21
  And that was just such a very touching moment to happen and
• 12:28
  so, yeah. So yeah, that that whole
• 12:31
  situation with rockets back on itself was very dope also.
• 12:35
  Shout-out love, I can't remember the name of the the new whistle
• 12:41
  guy which let me just look at these characters names.
• 12:48
  I can't find the guys name but basically but the yondu did the
• 12:54
  guy who took over the West Lane and dark thing, whatever from
• 12:59
  yondu. I love that moment when they
• 13:02
  were kind of getting swarmed by all these enemies and stuff and
• 13:05
  yondu kind of appears to kind of give them motivation.
• 13:11
  But of course in the most yondu way to a basically, he's like
• 13:15
  use your heart boy. That was just such an awesome
• 13:21
  moment, but some of my other highlight things in this movie
• 13:26
  where I love freaking nebulas, new like transforming arm
• 13:31
  things, she has that rocket belt for her.
• 13:35
  I love the moment where they land the ship on the counter
• 13:41
  Earth and they get out. And they of course, this whole
• 13:45
  plan is just filled with the kind of like these.
• 13:46
  Like, Norfolk hybrid animal people, their rocket helped the
• 13:53
  high evolutionary to Kind of Perfect the formula for and
• 13:57
  they're freaking Drax, kind of like a little girl, Rose the
• 14:01
  ball to drags and drags. Yes.
• 14:04
  Too hard, hits with the ball. Everybody freaks out, sort of
• 14:08
  taking them and stuff. I also loved the scene or just
• 14:15
  that whole level where they had to infiltrate that facility
• 14:19
  wearing the different color jumpsuits instead of and how,
• 14:23
  you know, Drax is talking about how how he didn't like the his
• 14:28
  read that it was red because it clashes with the color of his
• 14:31
  eyes and And yeah, so and I feel like like the, the Sylvester,
• 14:38
  Stallone Cameo or the character, he's playing with his country,
• 14:41
  like a side character, I don't see him being like, a big thing
• 14:44
  going forward, but just kind of like, hey, Sylvester, Stallone
• 14:48
  wants to be in the MCU somewhere.
• 14:50
  Sure, let's give him this lead, mercenary role, but, But yeah,
• 14:56
  but yeah, that this movie is just filled with just so many.
• 15:00
  Golden moments on the way like I said with that classic Guardians
• 15:06
  banter and humor and stuff. So yeah.
• 15:11
  So and the last, I didn't want to touch on before I get ahead
• 15:14
  cuz I can say, I want to kind of keep this short and I don't need
• 15:17
  to do a beat for beat thing, but going back to the whole, like
• 15:22
  all the characters understanding each other, I like how the Peter
• 15:27
  and Gomorrah stuff kind of wrapped up to wear You know,
• 15:30
  good more kind of came around all with Peter and the crew and
• 15:34
  everybody. And, and Peter also kind of like
• 15:37
  to kind of like, let go and not continue to try to force, you
• 15:41
  know, something that that that Hammond the other version of her
• 15:46
  had in the past. and, Yeah, that just just that whole final
• 15:55
  sequence, which first of all, the freaking High evolutionary
• 16:00
  just torching everybody, his crew when they try to turn on
• 16:04
  him and because because he, he was so obsessed with rockets
• 16:06
  where he was like, Hey, I don't care if y'all go bring him back
• 16:10
  whatever. And like the one ladies, I know
• 16:12
  we have to do that. They alternate Eternal guns on
• 16:14
  them. I was like he just a blast all
• 16:16
  the way. And that's what he does.
• 16:20
  He just yeah just blast everybody away.
• 16:24
  And keeps it pushing honestly for a moment I thought they
• 16:30
  really going to kill off Peter because I when he makes that
• 16:32
  jump and he misses in like the little bit of debris, pushes him
• 16:36
  back and his body starts icing over.
• 16:38
  I was like oh Okay, so everybody we're about to like start
• 16:43
  killing off characters and stuff for everybody.
• 16:45
  No. Adam Warlock came through
• 16:48
  clutch, saved Peter and stuff. And while speaking on Peter
• 16:54
  likes to just kind of just wrapping this up and with how
• 16:57
  everybody kind of is off, I like how, you know, Peter because as
• 17:01
  mentioned earlier in the movie and Gomorrah kind of helps,
• 17:03
  remind him what the family photo, but it's like them
• 17:07
  talking to him about Out you still have family on Earth.
• 17:12
  It's like yes, you might not have been been back there since
• 17:14
  you were eight years old but you still have family there that
• 17:18
  might be concerned about you and I love that the kind of way that
• 17:24
  they kind of transition, this OG cast of Guardians characters as
• 17:29
  they give it to usher in a new generation of them.
• 17:34
  So many of these characters do have Personal things they need
• 17:39
  to resolve and take care of. They kind of gives them a reason
• 17:44
  to kind of go off to other parts of the Galaxy or go and do other
• 17:47
  things. And so I just loved Peter, going
• 17:52
  back home and his grandfather there, waiting to greet him and
• 17:56
  I, hey, Pete is that you because he hadn't seen him since he was
• 18:00
  freaking eight years old and that just like really warmed my
• 18:04
  heart and then mantis also going off with her three, giant alien
• 18:09
  creature thing things because she also has some self-discovery
• 18:14
  to go through and stuff as well. And I loved how Drax Batista who
• 18:23
  has been one of my favorite characters in this series and I
• 18:25
  also love how they did that character and the Guardians of
• 18:28
  the Galaxy game. It was just, it was such a
• 18:36
  beautiful moment when they came around, I think it was mantis
• 18:44
  and made mention that, you know, his purpose is, or he's meant to
• 18:49
  be a dad because I love how when they were infiltrating, the ship
• 18:53
  and they came across all these kids in cages, how, you know,
• 18:57
  nebula, of course she does and she's learning when everybody
• 19:01
  she was stop. Stop, you just present the kids
• 19:04
  and they start crying or whatever and then Drax with a
• 19:08
  dad energy, which I love comes through and he calms down the
• 19:14
  kids and then he is even able to communicate with the kids which
• 19:17
  was funny when nebula was I why did you say that?
• 19:21
  You knew how to do this? And he was like, well, you
• 19:23
  didn't ask ask and so once again, going back to the theme
• 19:28
  of understanding these characters, kind of
• 19:31
  understanding each other and like like Reflecting on what
• 19:33
  their different roles were within the group dynamic.
• 19:38
  I just really loved this moment for Drax.
• 19:40
  Like I said, just like him kind of getting to stay on this
• 19:43
  planet. Help them rebuild but also going
• 19:46
  to help be there to be with the kids and stuff and also shine it
• 19:51
  to the to the moment in the on the counter earthward racks.
• 19:55
  Kept on trying to lay down on the couch there was just such a
• 20:00
  fun moment but I'm trying to think of what are the things.
• 20:07
  Of course, good. Good more goes off to be back
• 20:10
  with the, with the rebels or camera, what their what their
• 20:14
  name is. But, but, but that, that faction
• 20:17
  of people. And then the moment where we
• 20:21
  freaking here, Groot, who had lots of really cool mom is, of
• 20:27
  course, the one that was in all the trailers with him, pulling
• 20:29
  out all the guns from within and stuff.
• 20:32
  But also I love the freaking mama where him and Peter
• 20:36
  Freaking just jump out the window of this ship taking off
• 20:40
  into space and freaking grew. Growing would wings and like
• 20:45
  lighting them down to Earth's, 82 to the ground safely, but the
• 20:50
  moment where grew actually verbalizes, I love you guys.
• 20:57
  It caught me off guard. I was at, whoa, but I kind of
• 21:00
  look into a little bit more after the fact, and there was
• 21:04
  fan theories and stuff. When James got himself,
• 21:07
  confirmed it in a tweet that that basically him speaking
• 21:12
  tour, we can understand there's basically just like kind of like
• 21:14
  haggle more. How vascular.
• 21:18
  Hey, we're family now and we understand grouped and it's
• 21:25
  okay. He is speed.
• 21:26
  This is how he is. Actually saying it's not
• 21:28
  forever, even though it's kind of like that running joke about
• 21:31
  I am Groot. I am Groot Group by to where he
• 21:34
  was. Like I love you guys.
• 21:35
  Guys, but it was just so funny hearing that in Vin Diesel of
• 21:39
  voice with all the Fast and Furious stuff, which I'm just
• 21:45
  got. If they didn't make him say, I
• 21:48
  love you guys. We're family.
• 21:51
  That'll Bend too much, whatever, but but I did love that James
• 21:55
  Gunn confirm. There's like, no, we're able to
• 21:58
  hear him because Part of the problem, we are family now
• 22:02
  whatever. So but bad.
• 22:04
  But all in all guards in the Galaxy 3 I'm like say was a
• 22:07
  fantastic movie. Also shout-out to that big
• 22:13
  action scene in the hallway. I'll I just love just seeing
• 22:18
  everybody just going out balls to the wall.
• 22:21
  Just slicing and dicing up enemies.
• 22:24
  Blowing them up and stuff. That whole scene was very very
• 22:30
  Dope. But by a saw, and I don't know,
• 22:35
  you know, if there's going to be more with the high evolutionary,
• 22:39
  I would probably presume because he's not dead, because we didn't
• 22:43
  kill him. Shoutout to Cosmo left Cosmo in
• 22:47
  the movie loves Cosmo. And then, once again, the
• 22:50
  Guardians game, which I'm a continued to shout out and show
• 22:53
  love to But and also those that are watching the video version
• 22:57
  of this. I've had these posters talking
• 22:59
  through, like, shout out to these character punches that
• 23:02
  they different movie. I love this Allah and the
• 23:05
  Discover more when I got on the screen now.
• 23:07
  But all of them are fantastic that they did for all they cared
• 23:11
  for the for the cast of the characters.
• 23:13
  And there's a very dope image that they did at the end of the
• 23:18
  movie, which oh, well I can't find it.
• 23:23
  But at the end of the Movie. There was this very dope group
• 23:28
  photo with all of the cast of the Guardians and stuff.
• 23:33
  Whatever was so freaking fantastic.
• 23:36
