Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Deep Dive

When the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie was released, no one knew what to expect. We didn't know the characters, James Gunn wasn't a household name by any stretch of the imagination and Marvel hadn't really gone cosmic yet. We'd already grown to love and trust the brand but this was something new, something risky. Fast forward 9 years and the Guardians name carries weight, so much weight that people are wondering if this movie will get Marvel back on track. James Gunn is widely respected, so much so that Marvel's competitor hired him to run their whole deal. This after Marvel fired him, allowed him to work on a pair of D.C. properties, then hired him back after realizing they had been too quick to act. It has been quite the journey with a lot of laughter but also a few tears along the way. Would Guardians 3 deliver the same? I'm joined in this discussion by Jose Mata. Someone I talk to often but is a first-time guest on the show. I hope you enjoy the convo.
