So I have to admit, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy did not initially appeal to me, personally.

Then I started seeing things pop up about how great it looked, that people couldn’t wait for it to come out, and then hubby jumped on board.

Now, he and I are counting down to August 1st when Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy opens in theaters everywhere!

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy has a fun cast that includes Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, featuring Vin Diesel as Groot; Bradley Cooper as Rocket; Lee Pace; Michael Rooker; Karen Gillan; Djimon Hounsou; John C. Reilly; Glenn Close as Nova Prime; and Benicio Del Toro as The Collector.

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy is an action-packed, epic space adventure that expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe.

To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits—Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon; Groot, a tree-like humanoid; the deadly and enigmatic Gamora; and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer.

But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand—with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.
