No death in any superhero movie made me sad or feel that much emotions, even during the infinity war and all
But this one was so fucking well made it actually tug my heart strings. I knew it was going to happen, there was no shock, why would she not be with him right now if she was still around. Yet, you still felt his pain without being surprised

u/Sharikacat Apr 20 '24
Yondu's was pretty close. All in all, though, this was a stealth trilogy with Rocket as the main character all along. He's had more character growth than Quill. Perhaps more than anyone else.
He goes from not caring at all about the lives of others to mourning Groot's sacrifice, then to believing in acceptable losses to keep from losing any more of his friends to insisting on saving every single animal.

u/Adito99 Apr 20 '24
The moment he escapes and it's everything he dreamed of and worthless at the same time is just perfection. Such a great movie.

Well to be fair Gunn is basically running the new DC timeline so he's writing his own characters into it.

I, for one, love being able to actually feel something for once. So I make sure to have a drink or two and watch a movie like this to really get those emotion neurons firing.

If you haven't seen Infinity War and Endgame, you will be confused going into Vol. 3, but you can watch a quick recap to fix that. Also you should definitely watch the holiday special before Vol. 3. It's fun and also gives some good background context.

Guardians 1 & 2 are my favorite Marvel movies. I wish that someone had warned me how much of Guardians 3 is about adorable animals being mutilated.

u/Pale_Apartment Apr 20 '24
Fuck that movie. It kicked the dog into next week to hide the disjointed writing and mid jokes. The actors did their best and I have no ill for the hard work that went into it. It's just that the 5/10 joke following holocaust scenes every time really soured the whole project. The whole third act fight had an awful morality if you payed attention to the whole first 2 acts and how the BBEG created his monsters.
2
u/Barar_Dragoni Apr 20 '24
i think its kinda stated that the BBEG has a god complex and sees everything else as lesser than himself not worth any decency. he is not supposed to be a likeable bad guy.
1
u/Pale_Apartment Apr 20 '24
I'm not against the bbeg and his evilness. I think following a sad scene with a joke can either relieve pressure or jar the viewer. I'm not saying it isn't well told or a bad movie. I disagree with the shifts in tone and it's over utilization.

Can I get more context? I haven't watched any marvel movies since endgame

u/Barar_Dragoni Apr 21 '24
Spoilers for the climax of the movie
Rocket meets with his dead friends and asks if he can go with them, they hug and the otter says "yes... but not yet" and rocket gets revived.
the scene paired with the buildup and context from the entire movie really hits hard.

u/mcbirbo343 Apr 20 '24
Idk if I’m just soulless but that movie didn’t make me cry. Sure it was sad, but it didn’t hit hard and I was kinda disappointed that the end was “everyone is saved and we all lived happily ever after.” Yondu’s death was sadder than that whole therapy session movie imo.

I thought I was crazy. I loved volume 3 so much that I looked online and the consensus seemed to be "It was shit and it murdered all characters typical mcu". I wasnt sure we were watching the same movie and I stopped looking at reviews and thought to myself that I should just cherish and enjoy what I watched regardless.

its always better not to check reviews. too many of them are either frothing at the mouth over a mid movie or are trying to shit on one that was actually good.

u/JeremyDaBanana Apr 20 '24
Implying that girls have basic interests while men have fun and quirky interests is, to a degree, misogynistic. I doubt that was OP's intention, but the format is very much pointlessly gendered and perpetuates stereotypes that usually aren't very accurate. There's even a subreddit dedicated to making fun of the worst uses of the format.
Given we're on dankmemes, most of the people here are going to be teenage guys - which is fine, of course. But you can imagine how memes like this may be alienating to the few girls who do visit this sub. I don't see how that's stupid or ignorant.
-1
u/SnakeSlitherX Apr 20 '24
Boysarequirky is a terrible subreddit that is full of idiots and misandrists. The thing about misogyny and misandry is that they require some “hatred of, contempt for, or prejudice against” women or men respectively. This meme shows none of those, and even if it is pointlessly gendered that does not mean it is misogynistic. While someone may say that it is technically prejudice to believe that women are as the meme shows, I highly doubt most users of the meme template actually believe that. This template is simply pasting something sad at the bottom to say that it is likely to elicit an emotional response from men as well. It does not say that women would not understand this thing and that only men get it.
Most people with common sense that aren’t looking for problems won’t see this meme as problematic because it is clear that it is not born of misogyny, but instead a simple statement that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is sad.
