There'd be another reason Thanos wins without Starlord being there. But - Reagen Feb 7, 08:19 26
- HOnestly, I'm not sure I get the "hot-head" from him as much as I get the idiot con artist. -- (edited) - Will Hunting Feb 7, 09:13
- Also it's thematically consistent for the MCU - Max Feb 7, 09:09 1
  - (The real Marvel Martha Moment) -- nm - Spawn Feb 7, 09:12
- He's Space Rocky Balboa. -- nm - Max Feb 7, 09:04
- this, and not only was he upset that his love died, but also that he promised her that he would not let Thanos get her - groiny Feb 7, 08:22 1
  - Exactly. Some like MDH might call it the Marvel Martha Moment, but with any understanding of the character it actually makes sense. -- nm - Spawn Feb 7, 08:24
- Yup. He has not got where he is by using his head, at all. Always gut, always heart. -- nm - Spawn Feb 7, 08:21 2
  - Thinks with his gut, love/hate relationship with co-workers, obsessed with 70s/80s pop - he's Marvel's Rob Gordon. -- nm - Roger More Feb 7, 08:39 1
    - His gut's got shit for brains, for sure. -- nm - Reagen Feb 7, 08:47
- I'm on board with this. Still not a fan of that one piece of the movie. I feel like they could have done it another way... - Usnavi Feb 7, 08:20 16
  - "this character didn't act perfectly rationally to their best long term interests!" != a plot hole - Reagen Feb 7, 08:28 15
    - I get that...but for me as someone who'd never heard of Starlord before the first movie...I'm not sure I got that from the GotG flicks. nm - Usnavi Feb 7, 08:40 13
      - Uhm, did you see GotG? spoils - Spawn Feb 7, 08:45 7
        
        Apparently I need to watch it again. To be fair - it has been a while. But... - Usnavi Feb 7, 08:53 6
        
        I actually get angry with how bad Thor 2 is. -- nm - groiny Feb 7, 08:59 4
        
        A lot of it is quite good. - Spawn Feb 7, 09:13 3
        
        they needed to scrap that shit storyline, and go Warriors 3. -- nm - groiny Feb 7, 09:17 2
        
        Well, yeah. But honestly, Thor ruins much. His story line in Ultron was the weakest part, as well. -- nm - Spawn Feb 7, 09:20 1
        
        it is hard when you are a god. -- nm - groiny Feb 7, 09:21
        
        The opening scene of GotG tells you pretty much everything you need to know about Quill. - Spawn Feb 7, 08:57
      - well, I never read a Guardians comic, but consider.... spoils I guess.... - groiny Feb 7, 08:44 4
        
        Also... - Roger More Feb 7, 08:55
        
        And the arch of both GotG movies was all about spoil - Spawn Feb 7, 08:47 2
        
        Ok - THAT I got. :) -- nm - Usnavi Feb 7, 08:48 1
        
        The GotG are clearly the MOST *self-centered* of any in the MCU. - Spawn Feb 7, 08:56
    - come on, you know damn well that people always make right decisions!!!! -- nm - groiny Feb 7, 08:29
Damned emotions! -- nm - Spawn Feb 7, 08:18
Yup.i wonder if he redeems himself in End Game -- nm - Amoxy Feb 7, 08:17
