Guardiões da Galáxia: Especial de Festas

So,,,

The last we saw our Gaurdians of the Galaxy pals they were leaving Thor and Korg (along with those giant goats) on some distant planet.

Since then, judging from this,, apparently things have happened.

The Guardians of the Galaxy have bought Nowhere from the Collector, and are in the process making it their own (which means a LOT of WORK for our band of space pirates).

No one knows where Gamora is, btw. She has not been seen nor heard about since the events near the end of Endgame. This being the case, has sent Quill into a bit of a blue slump. I mean, he finally got Gamora, then lost her, faded out of existence for 5 years when the blip happened, then comes back, battles Thanos's army, and then, there is Gamora!! Back! Alive!! Then she knocks him on his butt (granted,, this version of Gamora had no clue who he was, so it was a bit justified) and runs. Ugh,, that would make anyone a bit down in the dumps.

While StarLords friends are talking about his current state, Kraglin mentions that when he and Peter were coming up (as kids) in Yondu's crew, they once tried to celebrate Christmas, but Yondu ruined it, thus ruining Christmas forever. After hearing this, Mantis takes it upon herself to cheer Peter up. She and Drax devise a plan to travel to Earth and abduct the legendary KEVIN BACON to be a Christmas present for Quill! What could possibly go wrong?!? Lol,,,

For all the misses they've had in the last bit, the MCU scores a good home run with the special (James Gunn does good work. Looking forward to seeing what he does with DC). It's plenty funny, and just heartwarming enough.

I look forward to seeing Vol 3.

After Werewolf By night Guardians Of the Galaxy holiday special is the next Marvel Special Presentation. After endgame we see Guardians again on our screens. No I do not count Thor love and thunder cause they were there for 5 minutes only.

Mantis and drax want to make Peter have a beautiful time at Christmas. So they decide to bring him as a present Kevin Bacon. They travel to Earth and After creating such a chaos they take him to Peter.

Guardians of The galaxy Holiday Special is very funny But the main point it is not the commedy. Peter is in pain cause the loss of Gamora. And his friends are doing everything they can to make him feel better. That is the point of this special. To show one more time the love between the Guardians.

I cannot wait to see them again in vol3.

This Christmas special is all I wanted it to be. A shot, (bitter)sweet special with usual Gunn humor. This captures the Christmas spirit perfectly.

This short also explores themes of fatherhood, friendship and contains some songs too without overstaying its welcome.

Mentis takes lead in this, which is great because she doesn't get much chance to shine. Drax is great as always. You can see that this does not bother itself with it being connected to the rest of MCU, not even its own sequel. Which is rare as for the rest of MCU stock. The animations used in this is also good.

Also, Kevin Bacon.

I found this by chance on a streaming site the other day. I've only seen the first GOTG but I liked it so I watched this to see what it was like, especially being christmas themed as I am a huge christmas fan.

I loved the story, loved the christmas theme, loved the set decor, loved the feeling behind it all and making the legendary Kevin Bacon into a mythical figure. Having his real wife call him on the phone was a fab stroke of genius.

You might not love this but I doubt that there is anyone at all who will dislike it. It's non stop fun and entertaining from start to finish.

I think it's time I watched all GOTG films as soon as I get a weekend free.

What a cool little idea for a story, one that doesn't warrant a full movie but is perfect for a Special. It's immediately elevated by the characters we already know and love. The cast all play their roles well as usual, but Pom Klementieff kills it with both the comedy and emotional moments.

As usual with The Guardians, laughs are plentiful. I cracked up twenty-plus times. And the route they go with the story is highly amusing. It's also good to see some added focus on some of the side characters. It even had enough to create some heartfelt emotional moments.

I had a great time going on this adventure with The Guardians. The MCU is two for two with their Specials. I'm still not fatigued. Give me more! (2 viewings, 11/24/2022, 5/2/2023)
