20 Things You Somehow Missed In Guardians Of The Galaxy

15. No Raccoons Or Trees Were Harmed

While the spotlight was quite rightly stolen by everything from Baby Groot's aforementioned cute as all hell moves, to Howard the Duck's official arrival throughout Guardians of the Galaxy's end credits sequence, there was actually another, much easier to miss, cheeky detail that deserved a little bit of love.

As the many talented folks who helped bring this outstanding cosmic effort into being were given their moment in the sun, the standard "no animals were harmed in the making of this film" message found towards the end of many a big-screen entry was given a brilliant twist.

On this occasion, Gunn and the gang chose to put their audience at ease with the parting message of "no raccoons or tree creatures were harmed during the making of this film."

So, rest easy, folks, that potty-mouthed rabbit and three-word-spouting icon made it out of this one unscathed... except from, you know, the whole OG Groot sacrificing himself for his new family stuff.
