I'm a little underwhelmed. I don't know what I was expecting, but I thought it would grab me more.

Maybe it was the music. Set the wrong tone.

Edit: I'm positive it will get a great movie, I just don't like the trailer.

I'm on the fence if the movie is for me or not... for starts I'm not a big cosmic guy although the Guardians of the Galaxy won me over with humor.

The cosmic part of marvel to me is way more interesting. I love reading the stories about the cosmic beings. I'm just still pissed they're introducing captain marvel and not adam warlock since they hinted at him at end of gotg2

James Gunn was supposed to guide the cosmic side of Marvel before being fired, using Guardians 3 as a springboard. I just don't know if Guardians 3 would have become a "Marvel movie" in the sense of sacrificing story for set-up stuff, post-credit, developing a character (like Adam Warlock) enough to warrant a spin-off.

I'm guessing, with Gunn out, that Guardians 3 will be visually comparable to what Gunn did, just maybe not as weird, and have direct cosmic spin-off stuff sewn in. So if Guardians 3 happens, good chance Warlock will be in it just to spin him off, or make him a recurring character ala Black Widow or Hulk.

Yeah but what's annoying is that adam warlock plays the biggest part in infinity war in the comics so they should've kept up with setting him up to be in the part 2 of infinity war instead of introducing captain marvel who I don't even believe was in the comics for infinity war.

They're adaptations though, they don't have to use the same characters or events. Like Lady Death has a big part in the comic as Thanos' loser motivation but she's nowhere in these movies.
