MCU and Food - Part 10 <There's no food>

Food Item: NONE!!AGAIN!!! 2014 was an awesome year for the MCU but it doesn’t help my trend of posts lmao. Like before, I will list every food/drink included in this one fun ride of a film. Gamora eats some sort of fruit (i dunno) when she’s outside The Broker’s Shop. Please tell us what you’re snacking on, Zoe Saldana! I need to know! I only got a tiny apple here! Peter has Skittles scattered all over a table inside The Milano. Won’t they be expired by now?? There’s a ton of characters drinking space booze. Memorably, The Collector was seen sharing a cocktail with Howard the Duck.

Movie Rating: 9/10 This is the film that cemented the boundless potential of Marvel Studios when it comes to telling different stories in different cornerstones of the universe. Sure, we’ve seen the cosmic side of the MCU through the Thor films but that side leans more on fantasy while the Guardians’ cosmic side is very sci-fi. And it was delivered in such an entertaining, vibrant and feels-good way, coupled together with its immaculate soundtrack where it actually plays an important function for the lead actor. No wonder why we fell in love with a tree and a talking raccoon. Because of this movie’s success, the floodgates holding Marvel to do crazy stuff were no longer active.

Standout Performance: Dave Bautista as Drax the Destroyer This movie proves that Dave Bautista can freaking act! Drax’s comprehension on every single thing in the most literal sense is portrayed very well through Dave’s line deliveries. The scene where he admits his outbursts of anger are just to cover his grief is soo impactful. And he’s hilarious when he needs to be too! I believe this movie truly launched his acting career. And he gets even better as we progress through the years.

Sidenote #1: I didn’t know Ralph Ineson was in this movie! Yeah before he played the big purple planet eating dummy, he had a small role as a Ravager pilot onboard Yondu’s Ravager flagship.

Sidenote #2: This post was delayed as we are all enjoying Born Again Season 2 lmao what an interesting start and spicy ending for the episode
