Just realized the Mary poppins reference was not random at all.

Brother Entropy posted:seriously though why did ego have to give his baby mama brain cancer? i liked that quill immediately went guns blazing once it sunk in but going straight from the twist to the action kinda left the 'why' hanging in the air Because he loved her and that love was keeping him from his goal of dominating the universe. I think he said that outright .

The character named ego loved himself the most. You see.

Gamora immediately asks why and has a bad feeling about it.

Ego was shown as a brain encased in the heart of a planet. Seems pretty solipsistic idk.

Do filmmakers even think of "tropes" or are they just popular in a particular corner of the internet.

Phylodox posted:I don't think Ego's love for Meredith or Peter was feigned at all. He genuinely loved both of them. That was the problem. That's why he had to kill a Meredith. One of the main ideas through the movie is that you can't be a god and a man. Ego realized that, if he continued to stay on Earth and love Meredith, he would become too human to carry out his "make everything me" plan. So he killed her to remove even the temptation. He chooses to be a god. Peter chooses to be a man. Exactly . It was pretty well done. The heel turn was well supported.

Disagree that the movie didn't do it well. He had "human" parts and "god" parts and they conflicted. Just like in normal life people have selfish and selfless desires conflict all the time. And these conflicts break up families all the time.

Ego actually loved peter's mom so his demigod genes passed to peter.

Ego knew he had ego genes, he just wasn't sure if peter could connect to the light of the planet. (He heard someone held an infinity stone w/o blowing up and came looking right away).

THobo Clown posted:Could the Infinity Stone have anything to do with it? Being Ego's kid meant Peter didn't get fried when he touched it, and at the same time made him more powerful than his celestial half-siblings? Since the next scene had them playing catch I'm going with the power of love.

Right. He only loved peter when peter fit in to his selfish world view. This happens in families and the real world all the time. It's very sad. They did a good job in the movie interjecting some real feels into a space musical.

They were waiting for the ship to be repaired. That is correct. It was in the plot.

ThePlague-Daemon posted:The Star Wars prequels and the Guardians of the Galaxy movies are both drawing inspiration from similar sources. Here's some Bob Eggleton paintings from the 70s Sci-Fi Art tumblr that have similar imagery or color choices: Those Eggleton posters are fantastic thank you

SuperMechagodzilla posted:Well, again: exactly. You consider identity politics and civil rights the same thing, when the latter is a term for the appropriation and 'decaffeination' of what are typically left-wing, radical, egalitarian politics by liberal centrists. 'Civil Rights' implies the progressive struggle for social and economic equality, whereas identity politics largely/entirely omits the economic aspect. I like that reading of rogue one a lot and think it fits pretty square . It salvaged the ending for me .
