Peter Quill is a fearless Earthling pilot who rather proudly proclaims himself to be an outlaw, going by the nickname Star-Lord. As a child, he was taken from his home planet and forced to live around various alien races, but even he is in for a surprise when he is captured by merciless hunters led by the evil admiral Ronan after he tries to make off with an extraordinary orb. It is during his imprisonment that he meets four other intrepid outlaws. There’s Drax the Destroyer, a man of muscle hellbent on avenging the tragic murders of his family; Gamora, a green-skinned cyborg who is the rebellious daughter of Ronan’s boss Thanos; Rocket, a genetically modified raccoon with incredible firearm dexterity; and Groot, a half-man half-tree creature who knows little about the technological world. Despite their reluctance, the five must join together to save the universe from Thanos’ dastardly plans.
Marvel take an unusually comical turn on the superhero genre with their latest comic book film ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy’. Directed by James Gunn ('Super', 'Slither', 'PG Porn') and co-written by Nicole Perlman, the movie is based on the comics originally designed by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning. It is set to hit theatres on August 1st 2014.
