Avengers: Infinity War - 15 Obscure Easter Eggs You Might Have Missed

8. The Cotati

Once Thor (Chris Hemsworth) ends up splattered on the Guardians' windshield and they bring him aboard their ship, Gamora (Zoe Saldana) takes a look at his body and remarks, much to Star-Lord's jealous disdain, "it's like his muscles are made of Cotati metal fibres."

Though the line itself is fairly memorable, without the benefit of subtitles most viewers probably missed exactly what Gamora was referring to. In the comics, the Cotati are in fact a race of telepathic, humanoid plant-like creatures who get caught up in a conflict with the Kree and the Skrulls.

With Captain Marvel due for release early next year, this was most likely a nod to the fact that the Kree-Skrull war will be featured extensively in the film. And who knows, maybe the Cotati themselves will even enjoy a cameo?
