Episode 380: Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3

Comic book expert, Erik Laws, returns to the show to discuss James Gunn’s swan song from the Marvel Cinematic Universe as he closes the book on the beloved Guardians. But will they be so beloved this time around with a more somber, less goofy finale? The Eriks certainly are not on board with it. Wondering why Gunn did not just do the Rocket origin tale on its own, the duo contemplate an elongated pit stop early in the film. The handling of Adam Warlock is a complete mystery and does the central villain fit more neatly into a storyline that understood who He was. Erik Childress has one possible theory on it all while the discussion is filled with disappointment which has become par for the course for Marvel since it delivered its Endgame.
