14. The Songs Are Even More Important

It should come as no surprise that Gunn says the music in Vol 2 is hugely important, but he goes further this time, suggesting that it's a more organic presence in the narrative.

For instance, at one point Baby Groot sets up speakers in outer space because he knows Star-Lord likes to hear music when he’s fighting. He also added, “It does go more than just his headset, but it’s all based off of Volume 2. And I would say that a couple of the songs, and particularly one song, has very unique lyrics that play a much more specific part into the plot than any song did in the first film.”

So no Suicide Squad iPod playlist-itis here then.
