GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Trailer Arrives – Fans Heads Explode

My of my, it’s been a while since a trailer has been so universally showered with love and praise. MARVEL debuted their first look trailer for the James Gunn directed GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY and I have to admit, it put a smile on my face.

GEEKTYRANT had the following synopsis posted:

An action-packed, epic space adventure, Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits–Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon; Groot, a tree-like humanoid; the deadly and enigmatic Gamora; and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand–with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.

I have admitted before, I’m not the worlds largest “superhero” movie fan but damn, this looks fun so it’s going on the “can’t wait to see it” list. Been a big fan of James Gunn’s stuff to date and it looks like this one is heading to that same list.

Got a while to wait for this one as we are looking at an Aug. 1st release date.
