Guardians Of The Galaxy Preview: 10 Things That Got Us Excited

7. It's Incredibly Funny

Marvel ComicsMarvel ComicsThe humour that is a signature of the books was stand out here, even among the rest of the comedy moments in other Marvel movies. Marvel Studios have always had a healthy amount of the funny in all of their films, from Tony Stark's snark to Captain America's antiquated understanding of pop culture, but the humour has been pushed to the forefront here. Most of the laughs stem from what an unlikely team the Guardians are (more on that later) and the general tone is a little more lighthearted than some of the other stony-faced Marvel movies. These characters are at their funniest when they can bounce off one another and Marvel have realised that, playing up the team aspect to its fullest and letting the comedy occur more naturally.
