I read a review in the Guardian earlier that gave it 3/5 stars, which is about what they all are really.

[babarsuhail]

The average rating is 8.0, which is 4/5

I'm sure it's an enjoyable enough movie.

But I still don't want to give the DCEU my money because it's such a goddamn mess.

[kerosene_pill]

Are these movies technically considered part of the DCEU? I honestly never thought they were lmao

[fauxkaren]

lol good question

it seems unclear what movies are part of the DCEU

[xdecadentx]

I assumed they were cos Batfleck was in the first one.

I expect it'll be popular. James Gunn's misogyny and just plain bad writing and directing matter for nowt because he gives the dudebros what they want.

IA re JG.

Slightly OT: I have really appreciated your comments over the few years I've read ONTD. I'm learning how to call out misogyny when I see it and I am grateful for your straight-forward, no nonsense posts. All the best from a fellow Canadian!🙂🇨🇦

Aw, thank you!

Honestly, the 'joke' from the first GotG movie about Gamora being a whore by Drax, the character who is completely literal so the joke doesn't even make sense, has stuck in my head ever since. Gunn just wanted to call the only woman in the movie a whore.

Somewhere, some 'fan' is creaming themselves because James Gunn is giving Nathan Fillion yet more work and I hope they can feel my spite for them shooting across the psychic plane.

Godspeed to the first person to give it a rotten review bc the fanboys will cyber bully the fuck out of them.
