Hopes are high for the Guardians' second go-around in the MCU, and while hopefully James Gunn might put a little more effort into the plot this time, Baby Groot looks freaking adorable, and as long as he's not over-used, he could be the easy MVP of this much-anticipated sequel.

Understandably, there's also a lot of hype for new cast members Kurt Russell as Star-Lord's father Ego, Pom Klementieff as new Guardian Mantis, Elizabeth Debicki as the possible villain Ayesha and...Sylvester Stallone as a Nova Corps member.

Also, keep your fingers crossed for the movie to explicitly introduce the Guardians to the core Avengers in a post-credits scene, but as ever, we'll have to wait and see.
