Trailer Review 036 Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Sneak Peek
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2
Teaser Effectiveness = 100%
Chance of Success = 90%
[00.01]
Opening by walking through a familiar walkway inside the spacecraft Milano with the sound of a gun being reloaded reverberating through it to foreshadow an impending shootout while the writing on the spacesuit compartment just shows the level of maturity of the owner of the ship.
[00.17]
After a tease of Drax and Gamora with the familiar soundtrack started to come in, the first full shot was reserved for the Star-Lord himself, seeing here standing at the ready at the front of a spherical opening overlooking a colorful background that is synonymous with Knowhere (located within the decapitated head of an unidentified Celestial), a place where they visited in the first film, possibly using it as their headquarters just like in the comics.
[00.24]
Defending some sort of power source, Gamora in her full black getup with the addition of the breastplate (that is similar to Star Lord's) brandished a single sword and straight towards the threat or rather up on it, jump off (probably) one of the tentacles of Abilisk, a space monster teased by the director in a concept art.
[00.28]
One of the major thorns that was always poking the Guardians' side was Yondu whom played both sides of the coin which is why it's more intriguing to see the Ravager leader walking side by side with Rocket seemingly in cahoots together and walking away as the result of their plan was in show as the bad guys falling to their death. His appearance beside the Guardians in the first poster for the film further solidify his change of heart to do good for a change although the main reason was still up in the air.
[00.30]
Nebula, whom fled the scene after her failed plan to overthrow Thanos, seen here in a split second to be in custody of someone as the hood being pulled down to reveal a disgruntled villainess, on her knees being presented to someone. Her inclusion in the poster as well could be foreshadowing her turn but it still remains to be seen.
The next scene first saw the captain of the team switching on his mask and rocket-jumped away ...
... as another funny scene saw another group of evildoers being thrown off the ground and seemingly froze at the top because of the effect of the bomb.
[00.41]
Interestingly, only three Guardians seen here walking away with their luggage from a spaceship (Milano?) which appeared to be stranded in a forest based on the dangling vegetation and broken tree barks. The scene proceeding this appeared to be at the same place although just the day before based on the foliage and the dark blue hue, with the bad guys probably causing them to crash into the forest but got caught in the blast and they walked away in the sunshine of the morning unscathed.
[00.43]
"They are two types of beings in the universe: those who dance and those who do not."
The ongoing quest for Peter Quill for his ideal dancing partner, with his literal friend offering a frank if somewhat hurtful advice, "you need to find a woman who is pathetic ... like you."
The hug afterwards was just the cherry on top, with the alien trying to the best of his abilities to be a good buddy to him.
[01.20]
The last scene was reserved for the standout duo in the original film, as Rocket shot through a metal surface to get to the bad guy on the other side, him looking satisfied with the result and then revealing the last Guardian, baby Groot, in a suit on his shoulder which is alternating the position from before, teasing us on the role they would play in the sequel.
the cheesy humor the leader always leans on, the return of beautiful imagery of the outer space, the fearless Gamora whom ran straight into danger, the wacky scene of people falling off in slow motion while the two Guardians walked away slowly, the possible entertaining pairing of loudmouth Rocket and opinionated Yondu, the promise of interplanetary action, finding entertainment in the misery of others, the perfect casting of Batista as the literal Drax and his on-time delivery
? Points of contention ?
the same breastplate as Star Lord's worn by Gamora and the similar outfit between them indicated they are trying to look like a team after the successful collaboration in the first movie, the color of Rocket's suit is similar to Yondu's own skin color indicating a possible team-up between them
nothing!
