Only, those same plot points have been reshuffled and rearranged in such a way as to be barely perceptible. Of course, as tends to be the curse of most sequels, much of the plot in this second installment is largely a rehash of what worked in the first movie. Gunn and his talented team maintain the same level of energy and humor as before, centered around the camaraderie and chemistry of a ragtag band of reluctant heroes. Although it doesn't surpass the first movie, which for some is debatable, the direct follow-up nonetheless proudly joins the list of superhero sequels that are just as good as their predecessors. 2, pulling off another miracle by being significantly better than anticipated or as lead to believe by the previews. Three years later, Gunn returned to write and helm Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.
In 2014, he amazingly managed to turn a relatively little-known and near-forgotten comic book series into a cultural phenomenon, surprising the expectations of everyone. His first two theatrical features, Slitherand Super, didn't leave much of an impression at the box-office, but both films are today well-regarded cult favorites, better appreciated for being clever insights at genre formula. If there is one thing James Gunn has demonstrated in the last few years of his two-decade filmmaking career, it's that when left to his own wildly-whimsical devices, he can catch lightning in a bottle.
