I thought this was pretty fun for a holiday-themed straight-to-streaming special about the Guardians of the Galaxy (although it was mainly just Drax and Mantis). It was nice seeing the two of them get some real characterization again.

Dude even your username admits to a lifestyle of smoking pot all day. You are bound to be universally more at ease with any content than the rest of us....

But on that note, I haven't seen it yet but I can't imagine what anyone was really expecting - it's a Christmas Special, not a full blown Marvel movie with stakes. Reminds me of when I was 8 and The Battle For Endor broadcast and Luke Skywalker never showed up. I had absolutely childlike expectations.

Most of mine were based on Gunn way earlier actually referring to it as "Guardians 2.5" and that it would absolutely have ramifications going into Guardians 3.

Only the most minor one I guess, that [REDACTED] is apparently [REDACTED]'s half-sister.

Plus maybe Groot's new form? Although I can't see them using the live-action suit in the next movie

It was a fun 40 minute special giving Mantis a lot of screentime. I don't know what people wanted more than that, we knew it was a Christmas special.

Expectations, dude.

Idk, my complaints have nothing to do with the scale of the thing. I just wanted to enjoy the writing, characters, and music.
