James Gunn Reveals Characters He Is Not Allowed To Use In 'GotG Vol. 3'
The Guardians of the Galaxy occupy a unique space within the MCU. The ragtag group of self-described outcasts scraped by throughout the galaxy prior to Endgame, taking the odd job and opportunistically seeking any cash they could get. Walking the gray line between good and evil, the Guardians fall more on the chaotic, self-serving side of things, as opposed to truly evil such as Thanos or Ultron or purely, altruistically, good like Steve Rodgers. With Thor Odinson, former ruler of Asgard, falling into their crew post-Infinity Saga, the creative and story-telling possibilities are nearly endless for the Guardians.

Why Spider-Man: No Way Home Works
Warning: MAJOR SPOILERS for Spiderman: No Way Home. Spiderman: No Way Home should not have worked. It bore all the signs of an over-hyped movie: star-studded cast, overwhelming publicity cycle, and a December release. At the UK premiere in Oxford, I ran into the theater buzzing with excitement, but one of MJ’s (Zendaya) lines also spoke to a nagging suspicion:

Why ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ Is An Example Of The ‘Perfect Movie’
***WARNING - SPOILERS AHEAD FOR NO WAY HOME*** No Way Home is easily one of the greatest movies ever made, in my opinion, and not just because it is a Marvel, a superhero, or a Spider-Man movie. It is one of those movies which comes along every so often and completely blows your mind and changes the game forever. The best way to explain it is, ironically, with the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) itself.

Unstoppable
We rocketed through the narrow airways between the skyscrapers of Metrocity, the Speedster’s sleek metal body vibrating and its double rocket-boosters flaming as we wove through a barrage of bullets, energy blasts, and assorted projectiles. Our haul lay tucked securely in the Speedster’s saddlebags, our escape impeded by every hero – super or standard – that the city could throw at us, but I focused my attention on the metallic companion riding pillion behind me.
