This shouldn’t come as a surprise but WizKids have announced a Guardians of the Galaxy expansion to their Marvel HeroClix range. The new release will have a five figure booster brick set, a Fast Forces pack, a gravity feed display and an Organised Play kit. It is expected that the figures will be out for […]
Let’s hope Guardians of the Galaxy breaks the usual “long trailer” rule
Have you heard of this rule – “the longer the trailer – the worse the movie”? I have. Sad to say that it often holds true. I remain a huge fan of all the Guardians of the Galaxy trailers but I’m beginning to wonder at the tactics. Why so many long clips? One theory is […]
Second Guardians of the Galaxy trailer ramps it up a notch
This is the second trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy and I think it is shaping up rather well. We get to see a little more of the characters, enough to form some opinions of them. Groot, I think, is very different from what I remember. Rocket seems fun. The aerial combat scenes in particular […]
Guardians of the Galaxy character videos: Star-Lord, Drax and Gamora
They’re coming thick and fast now but with this three to follow on from Rocket and Groot it’ll come to an end. I don’t think we’ll get any more character bios for a while. Why not? There are certainly more characters in Guardians of the Galaxy; there’s the whole Nova Corps, the Kree Ronan the Accuser […]
The full Guardians of the Galaxy trailer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTZ2Tp9yXyM This isn’t the 20 second teaser that was released yesterday. The full Guardians of the Galaxy trailer was shown during Jimmy Kimmel Live and comes in at an impressive 2m30s. Let’s hope it doesn’t follow the rule of “the longer the trailer – the weaker the film”. A quick look at my Facebook feed […]
First official Guardians of the Galaxy photo
Marvel have released the first official photo from Guardians of the Galaxy. I suppose this counts as “first” given that we had a teaser clip (probably) relating to Guardians of the Galaxy at the end of Thor: The Dark World. The picture shows enigmatic Gamora, then Peter Quill outside his Star-Lord uniform, Rocket Raccoon, Drax […]
First photo of Star-Lord from Guardians of the Galaxy
This grainy low-res photo appears to be Star-Lord from the set of Guardians of the Galaxy. If you’re not familiar with the series – Star-Lord is one of the good guys. Star-Lord (real name: Petter Quill) will be played by Chris Pratt in the James Gunn directed Marvel superheroes in space movie. Zoe Saldana steps […]
Marvel release Guardians of the Galaxy poster
Concept art for the Guardians of the Galaxy movie has been released by Marvel. There’s a faint blur that covers the “Nova Corp” text but it seems unlikely Marvel were actually trying to hide that. Marvel haven’t confirmed but from left to right the heroes are; Drax the Destroyer, Gamora, Star-Lord, Groot and Rocket Raccoon. […]
Karen Gillan, of Doctor Who, joins Guardians of the Galaxy
James Gunn will start to film the Guardians of the Galaxy TV series, part of Marvel’s phase 2, in the UK this month. Probably. The cast continues to grow in surprising, impressive and slightly insane ways. The latest addition is Karen Gillan who played Amy Pond in Doctor Who. Gillan has some indie credits to […]
Who’s in Guardians of the Galaxy movie?
Marvel have confirmed that they will release a Guardians of the Galaxy movie in August 2014. The comic series is likely not as well known as names like Captain America for the “mainstream audience”. In some ways the superhero team could be considered “Avengers in Space”. Indeed, after the second generation Guardians of the Galaxy […]
