The Question: Baby Groot looks hilarious, yes, but there's a justified worry among some fans that Marvel may end up over-doing the character's cuteness in the pursuit of selling lunchboxes and action figures. Is it too much cute for one movie?

The Likely Answer: There will surely be those who will complain about this, but expect the majority of viewers to find the charm and fun way too infectious to be irritated by.

Baby Groot has major potential as a character, and we know James Gunn and co. can nail physical comedy and witty banter, so there's honestly not a lot to be worried about here.

In short, it could takes things a little too far, but probably not enough to annoy most.
