core classes as undead :)
1. GOTG2 takes place only 2 months after GOTG1 (later in 2014), which gives you a lot of perspective about just how much more the Guardians must have bonded by Infinity War, since Gunn also confirms teen Groot is 4-5 years later and this so is Infinity War. 2. Rocket’s harassment of Taserface is an intentional effort to distract him from killing Yondu. Could Taserface kill him instead? Yeah. Does he really care that much. No, because he still hasn’t realized that anybody genuinely cares about him.
3. To quote Gunn “I don’t even know it Rocket cares much about dying. He’s a sad and lonely character. I think we get to see more in this movie that he’s deeply a injured, damaged soul who has never known tenderness. He’s never known love. He’s never known affection. So when he starts to become friends with the Guardians he’s not able to deal with the intimacy of friendship.” Ouch.
4. Gunn considers Rocket’s character arc to have equal footing to Quill’s arc in terms of importance in the film.
5. Nebula hates Thanos more than Gamora does.
6. The score has a motif that plays for Quill and Ego as a sort of “fatherhood” theme, but it doesn’t play at its fullest until Yondu sacrifices himself since Yondu is the REAL dad of the story.
7. Mantis was originally going to comment on how much love Drax feels for the other Guardians, but it was cut out because Gunn felt it was better to show it than tell it.
8. Nebula is the more sensitive of the two sisters and has become so hard because it’s the only way she can deal with how horrible her life is.
9. Gunn thinks it’s a shame that Nebula and Yondu didn’t get to interact more. He feels they would have become good friends.
10. When Gamora hears Quill say “Maybe what you’ve been looking for was right by your side all along” she thinks of Nebula. 11. Nebula is “probably even more damaged that Rocket if that’s possible.”
12. Quill considers Groot a son and sharing the earbud with him during the funeral sequence is meant to be symbolic of passing his music along to the next generation like his mother did for him.
13. They decided to end on the shot of Rocket because it was the first time Rocket was seeing a hint of a purpose to his life - up until this he hasn’t believed he had a reason for existing other than being an experiment.
