After months of waiting, Jimmy Kimmel Live gave us our first proper look at Marvel Studio's Guardians of the Galaxy last night, and no time was wasted in getting it online for the masses to see. In my opinion, this looks pretty darn spectacular. The effects are mind blowing, especially Groot and Rocket Raccon, and I'm in no doubt Marvel have another hit on their hands. But don't just take my word for it, check it out below.
Released: August 1st
Synopsis: From Marvel, the studio that brought you the global blockbuster franchises of Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers, comes a new team – the Guardians of the Galaxy. An action-packed epic space adventure, Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits – Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Peter discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand – with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.
