Are the Guardians of the Galaxy Coming in 2014?



The mysterious Marvel Studios movie that's been slated for May 16, 2014 has led to a lot of speculation and conjecture since it was announced last year. We're now less than two years away from that date and Marvel Studios hasn't announced what movie they'll be readying for that date, but with the announcement that Marvel Studios will once again have a Hall H panel at this year's Comic-Con on Saturday night, July 14, at 6 pm, it's been presumed that's when they'll announce the planned mystery movie.

Even so, the latest rumor from Latino Review, which other trades like Variety and THR are picking up on, is that Marvel Studios plans on announcing that their movie based on Guardians of the Galaxy will be ready to fill in that May 2014 slot.

The original Guardians of the Galaxy were introduced way back in 1969, a 31st Century superteam who were fighting a war against the alien race the Badoon. Ironically, we once thought that the aliens in Marvel's The Avengers might be the Badoon and when we mentioned that to the normally tight-lipped Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige, his response was... well, here's our actual interaction about the aliens in "Avengers" from May

"SHH: I thought it might have been the Badoon, because at one point, I remember you wanted to make a 'Guardians of the Galaxy' movie and I thought, 'Maybe they were bringing back the Badoon' even though they hadn't been in the comics for twenty years.

"Feige: Right. Well, they might be coming back to the comics sooner than you think."

what the.. is that a RACCOON in the cover?! 

Joseph Gordon-Levitt Added to Race for Lead Role, in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’

Holy Starlord, Batman! It seems the actor most people picked to don the cape and cowl over in the DC Universe might get stolen by Marvel. Deadline reports Joseph Gordon-Levitt is “in the mix” for the lead role of Peter Quill in James Gunn‘s Guardians of the Galaxy. He joins a short list that’s believed to include front-runners Jim Sturgess and Zachary Levi among others.

What does this mean about his rumored connection to future Batman and Justice League movies? Read much more after the jump.

According to Deadline, not only is Gordon-Levitt in the mix, there’s a small possibility he might have already been offered the role. It would be a huge surprise after a full month of speculation regarding other young actors like Joel Edgerton (Warrior), Jack Huston (Boardwalk Empire), Jim Sturgess (Cloud Atlas), Lee Pace (Lincoln), Eddie Redmayne (Les Miserables), and Zachary Levi (Chuck). Several of those guys have screentested and publicly come out to say they’d love the role as an American astronaut who ends up in space and as the head of this cosmic superteam.

Of course, the most interesting thing about Gordon-Levitt being in the mix is his connection to Batman. By now, we’ve all seen The Dark Knight Rises and how the ending of that film teases the possibility of the actor returning to the role. We’ve even had high placed sources say he could appear as the character this year. This news, though, throws a huge monkey wrench in that. Even if he isn’t cast in Guardians, if he’s being considered, it makes that connection to Justice League/Batman seem weaker than ever. If that was truly in the cards, would Gordon-Levitt even answer the phone about another starring superhero role?

James Gunn, who is re-writing and directing Guardians, came out to say the latest casting news, regarding Sturgess and Levi, was inaccurate and maybe he was referring to Gordon-Levitt. We’ll likely find out soon as the film will most certainly start filming later this year.

ok i'm jelly

I really think that this will be another good action/comedy movie of 2014. Superheroes with attitudes,lol. 'Oh, I'm sorry. I don't know how this machine works'*flipping off Nova Corps XD*

Not many comic readers know GOTG really.
The movie announcement during Comic-con really came out of the left field for everyone.

Either way, if anyone wants to do homework...here's your reading list.

You can also go straight to 25 issues GOTG by Abnett & Lanning.

Anyway...GSC will be debuting their D-Box Motion Seats at 1U for this movie in case anyone is interested to get a bit of a bumpy feel.

GSC 1U - Hall 3 is said to have D-Box and "Guardians of the Galaxy" will be the first one to utilize it  

We got IMAX (TGV) + D-Box (GSC) in a "single" mall, 1U... brilliant

I keep checking gsc's site, still no d-box + guardians galaxy for screening. Know any dates when they will start using the d-box?

Definitely gonna watch this in the glorius IMAX 3D

Don't forget the Dolby Atmos hall which is also in 1U.

D-Box is in the same hall as the Atmos hall in case anyone wants to know.

23 Jul – Earlier this month, it was announced that Golden Screen Cinemas (GSC) will be bringing a new feature into its cinema halls, namely a new type of seats called D-Box Motion Seats. Now the seats are debuting earlier than expected! D-Box Motion Seats are set to be unveiled at GSC 1 Utama cinema soon.

Installations are already underway in GSC 1 Utama, Hall 3 and once they are fully installed and tested, the seats will be opened for the public to enjoy.

The D-Box Motion Seats, are programmed to move with the visual and sound effects of a movie playing on screen.

Hall 3 at GSC 1 Utama is also home to the Dolby Atmos sound system, which comprises surrounding speakers system, some placed overhead of the audience, to create a dynamic audio effect for the audience while also allowing filmmakers to pinpoint the source of the sound that will increase the realism of their stories onscreen.

No idea...  I really want to experiece D-Box for the first time.
