James Gunn’s comments here reflect the ongoing narrative that Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 will be the most moving film of the entire trilogy so far. As someone who attended San Diego Comic-Con for the Hall H Marvel Studios presentation, I got to see the first teaser for the movie, and if it’s the ongoing narrative for the team, or especially how the film teases his exploration into Rocket (Bradley Cooper) and his origins, the film seems to touch viewers’ hearts quite a bit.
