      5 Reasons Why Marvel Studios Is Having Its Biggest Year Ever

      At a time when many blockbuster franchises are sputtering — the domestic gross for this year’s “Pirates of Caribbean” sequel fell 29 percent from the last installment’s, while “Transformers: The Last Knight” fell a staggering 47 percent — the Marvel Cinematic Universe has continued to dominate at the box office. This weekend, the 17th film in the series, “Thor: Ragnarok,” earned the biggest opening at the box office in two months: a $121 million domestic start and a running global total of $427 million. With that result, the MCU has now made $5 billion in lifetime domestic grosses — and $13 billion worldwide since “Iron Man” launched the series nearly a decade ago.

      Guardians of the Galaxy 2 spawns roaring trade in vintage Walkmans

      Forget wine or gold bullion – it’s time to sink all your savings into vintage Walkmans. Thanks in no small measure to Chris Pratt’s Star-Lord from ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ always having his unit to hand, the original portable Sony cassette player is getting a new lease of life. The TPS-L2 model, the specific player used by Pratt in the movies and the first to be manufactured by Sony in Japan, back in 1979, is of particular value.

Responding to an article about his own comments saying Baby Groot is not a marketing ploy, Gunn decided to elaborate on Facebook. “When I was first working on the script for ‘Vol. 2’ I was planning on it being years after the first movie and for little Groot to be a grown Groot.

      ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2’ director James Gunn has responded to rock legend Steven Tyler’s plea for a cameo in a third film in the series. While too late to make an appearance in 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2’ next year, Gunn is certainly open to working with the Aerosmith frontman in the future. “Yes, I did hear that Steven Tyler wants to be in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy,’” Gunn said in a Facebook Q&A video.

      It seems like we can anticipate something truly spectacular from ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,’ if the word of its cast is anything to go by. Vin Diesel has already presented himself on video looking absolutely flabbergasted after seeing some early footage of the film – and now Chris Pratt has made a bold declaration about the Marvel sequel. Speaking to the Toronto Sun, Pratt explained he was “not allowed to say anything” about the movie (pretty standard), but did let slip, “it’s finished and it’s going to be terrific.

      Only James Gunn and Vin Diesel Know What Groot Is Actually Saying

      Since ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ hit cinemas with a bang in 2014, the immortal words “I am Groot” have been deeply embedded in the popular consciousness. The extra-terrestrial sentient tree, voiced by the appropriately gravel-throated Vin Diesel, is famously only capable of saying those three words (and, as viewers will recall, one minor variation thereon) – and yet, the emotional resonance of that single phrase proves remarkable at times. Of course, it’s understood that while “I am Groot” is all that Groot can say, the phrase takes on infinite different meanings according to intonation, which only his BFF Rocket Raccoon (voiced by Bradley Cooper) can decipher.

      With ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ proving to be the surprise hit of 2014, a sequel was never in question. Ravagers leader Yondu (Michael Rooker) is back, probably not best pleased after Star-Lord tricked him by offering up a fake orb, but he’ll either serve as a subplot antagonist or an ally.

      Marvel has posted a new picture from the set of ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2’ showing off Michael Rooker’s mad space pirate Yondu. After appearing in full make-up at July’s San Diego Comic Con and revealing the character’s trademark head-fin, Marvel Studios has now offered a new look. The fin/mohawk - let’s go with fin-hawk - has been a defining trait of the character since he first appeared in a Marvel Comic in 1969.

      Months of speculation over who Kurt Russell is playing in Marvel’s ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2′ has come to an end, after the first footage for James Gunn’s sequel revealed all at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. Along with the all-new logo for the movie (as pictured above), we’ve finally had some confirmation on who Kurt Russell plays in the Marvel galaxy and, importantly, who Star-Lord’s (Chris Pratt) father is. During the first early footage of the adventure film, audiences were privy to a number of moments revolving around our resident guardians: Star-Lord, Rocket, Groot, Gamora, and Drax, as well as Yondu.

      New Team Members Rumoured For Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2

      ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ writer-director James Gunn declared late last year that he would pass no further comment on any rumours surrounding the upcoming sequel to Marvel’s 2014 hit. As such, it makes sense for the Guardians to reorganise their ranks on the big screen as well - and Geek.com claim this is just what will happen in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2.’ And they also claim to know of three new team members. The first, surely least unexpected new Guardian named is Yondu, as played by Michael Rooker in the first film.
