Awix (3310 KP) rated Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) in Movies

Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
2014 | Action, Sci-Fi
Marvel comedy-SF adventure that gambles big-time (doesn't feature a single character most people will have heard of), wins in spades due to great cast chemistry, effervescent script, and willingness to do something a bit different.

Motley crew of space ruffians meet in prison, find common cause (sort of), must stop would-be despot from causing untold devastation with plot device of ultimate power. Banging 70s and 80s soundtrack, obviously; looks fabulous too. Also strikes a welcome blow for inclusivity and representation of minorities (finally a film includes characters that raccoons and trees can identify with).

Fun battle app with Disney characters
This is practically the same game as Star Wars Heroes and Marvel Strike Force (both also owned by Disney). You build a team of characters and fight five on five to level up and collect more characters. As compared to the other games, this one awards fewer raid passes, so you have to play levels you’ve already played repeatedly to farm materials you need to level up your characters. There are more opurtunities to pit your team of characters against other players teams instead of just battling the computer.

Cheese Factor
Fun
Escapism
Dark Shadows is a glorious tribute to the gothic soap opera of the same name. It is deliciously camp, cheesy and extravagant - in short it is the perfect movie to watch from under the duvet whilst steadfastly avoiding the January chill outside.
Johnny Depp (disclaimer I’m biased I think the man is a marvel) is everything you need in this role, fun Fact - did you know that as a child he used to dress up as this character for Halloween.
It is the most technically superb film of all times but it’s fun and sassy.

The return of Shards was very welcome. Adds a new dimension of tactics to the game. (3 more)
Into the Cosmos has some cool schemes and Masterminds, Magus being our favorite.
Some of the best Villains ever, especially the Celestials. This expansion is almost worth getting for these alone.
A couple of cool heroes which makes use of the Shards in a new way.
Some of the new mechanics are fiddly and quite frankly boring. (1 more)
The Shard tokens are not the best quality, but that is easily remedied by using something else.
