    Outstanding animation and cute short!

    Sometime between the end of Guardians of the Galaxy and the start of its sequel, Baby Groot grew up from a flora colossus living in a pot into a toddler running around being mischievous.

    The new Disney+ series I Am Groot pilot episode shows us how Baby Groot got out of this pot and began walking. The animation of the episode was some of the best I have ever seen. It did not even look like a cartoon and it felt like watching a regular Marvel show. The Guardian's ship The Benatar looked exactly as it had in in the movies, the tree and robots looked lifelike, and Groot appeared just as he had in the movie. Groot's emotions were shown well on his face including whether he was happy, playful, sad, or frustrated.

    This episode was a great start to the show. Baby Groot was adorable to watch and it was cool seeing him use his stretching powers. The plot was simple, yet effective for the short.

    I can not wait to continue watching this series!

    We are Groot

    So this is the first episode : the animations are pretty nice and we follow that little guy from the Avengers and his first steps. Its so annoying that they didnt make an animation that make 20 minutes or something. Its good but too much short. I enjoyed it anyway and ready to follow Groot in other Adventures.

    I Am Groot

    I am groot and no one can tell us otherwise

    Guardians of the galaxy watch order: GOTG VOL1, VOL2, I AM GROOT, GOTG VOL3

    Haven't seen 3 yet I'm so hype to watch it.

    In Vol1 I love how Thanos was presented to be the pinnacle of all villains and how they displayed the infinity stones. Such powerful stones. Quill was lucky his Bloodhood had connections to an immortal, a subject that'll be thorough in volume 2 when they encounter his father.

    Vol 3 is talked about a lot and I can't wait to see it.

    What more can I say, apple is sweet and they grow on Malus domestica. In case you didn't know An apple is a round, edible fruit produced by an apple tree (Malus domestica). Apple trees are cultivated worldwide and are the most widely grown species in the genus Malus.

    The length of each episode is as long as my bank account. Have fun!

    Groot

    Better than Thor: Love and Thunder.

    Well, well, well At least it's a production that serves its purpose.

    It's not a multi-million dollar piece of garbage.

    It's Alright I Suppose

    There's honestly not a whole lot that can be said about it. Animation's good in the sense that it doesn't look like it's live-action, but it still looks good. Aside from that, there's nothing more to it.
