Caffeinated Film

Thanks to our friends at US Today, we have a wealth of new images to inspect from the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, giving us our best look at at the newest guardian, Mantis, as well as some glimpses of our old friends.

Check ’em out:

As expected, these images are bright and colorful and convey a genuine sense of fun.  Most of these images appear to be taken from scenes in the trailer, but I’ll take any Guardians 2 content that I can get. I’m absolutely loving Mantis’ design, but my favorite images has to to be the one of Baby Groot sporting a shit-eating grin as he contemplates setting off a bomb. The image of Yondu, Rocket, and Groot strutting down a catwalk whilst a load of baddies fall beside them is an all-timer as well.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is shaping up to be a worthy followup to the original film and I cannot wait to see more of this thing. Mayhaps we’ll get a Super Bowl trailer this weekend? One can hope.

We’ll still have quite a ways to go until we cans ee this in theaters, however. The film is set to hit theaters May 5th. Hopefully we all can make it until then.
