John Pollock & Wai Ting review the tenth Marvel Cinematic Universe film, Guardians of the Galaxy (2014).

On the week of Endgame’s release, we discuss Marvel’s first deep dive into its cosmic side as we learn more about the Infinity Stones and the world of Thanos. We discuss the risks Marvel took by dedicating a movie to its least known property to date, the casting of a relative unknown in Chris Pratt as lead while relegating stars such as Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel to voice-acting roles, as well as the show-stealing performance of WWE wrestler Dave Bautista.

Plus, we discuss the role the film’s Awesome Mix Vol. 1 soundtrack plays in its success, as well as recent controversies surrounding the film’s director/co-writer, James Gunn.

Synopsis from Google:

Brash space adventurer Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) finds himself the quarry of relentless bounty hunters after he steals an orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain. To evade Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with four disparate misfits: gun-toting Rocket Raccoon, treelike-humanoid Groot, enigmatic Gamora, and vengeance-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when he discovers the orb’s true power and the cosmic threat it poses, Quill must rally his ragtag group to save the universe.
