Squeeee!

Ahem, what I meant to say was that this looks like an entertaining work of cinema and I look forward to seeing it at my first opportune time. 

Squeeee!

Do you need a hug?

Is Star Lord human or is he dancer?

That makes me cautiously optimistic that the spirit and sense of fun of the original is intact.

Squee indeed. This and the _Rogue One_ trailer releases have made me make happy squirrel noises all week.  
And how _cute_ is baby Groot in his teeny-tiny outfit?

Setup to be a failure IMO. The first one did not take itself seriously and told a dumb but enjoyable story. This one is constrained by the expectations of the first. You can’t be spontaneous and quirky on demand.

It looks like a fun follow up.

Is it just me or does Drax/Dave Bautista look like a Zika baby?

Also, I didn’t ask for a hug… 😃 Does happy dance:  
I’m kind of hoping the characters experience growth and don’t get stuck in The Simpson’s schtick.

Yeah, I don’t think much of your opinion.

He’s half human, which would make him half a dancer. 😃

Normally, people expressing this thought would say the first film is a tough act to follow not that it’s setup to be a failure.

Yeah, the first one is a tough act to follow, but honestly: If the sequel is half as fun as the first one was, it’ll still be well worth the ticket price.
