Interesting facts:
-When Dave Bautista found out he got the role of Drax the Destroyer, he broke down in tears, overjoyed at getting a Marvel comic-book role. He immediately signed up for extra acting classes in order to prepare for the role.
-Chris Pratt apparently stole his Star Lord costume from the set, for the sole purpose of having it available so he could show up in costume to visit sick children in the hospital who might want to meet Star Lord.
-Vin Diesel recorded all his lines in several different languages, including Russian, Mandarin, Spanish, Portuguese, German and French so that they could use his real voice in the film around the world.
-According to Vin Diesel, his performance as Groot helped him through a dark time in his life; he was dealing with the loss of his best friend and "Fast and Furious" co-star Paul Walker: "It was the first time I came back to dealing with human beings after dealing with death, so playing a character who celebrates life in the way Groot does was very nice."

-Bradley Cooper claimed to Howard Stern that he was paid more for voicing Rocket in this movie than for starring in Silver Linings Playbook (2012) and The Hangover (2009) combined.
-Vin Diesel would record his lines wearing stilts so he could get a sense of how large Groot actually is.
-As of August 2014, this movie holds the record for being the widest August release in over 4,080 theaters, breaking the previous record holder, which was G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009) with 4,007 theaters.
-HIDDEN MICKEY: At the very end of the film, as the ship is taking off, you can see three suns in the distance; looking very much like silhouette of Mickey Mouse's head.
-The highest grossing Marvel film of 2014.
My Review: LOVE IT! LOVE IT! I am mostly speechless and this all I can say. Overall, the film was great. I saw this film when it came out awhile ago. Chris Pratt was perfect for the role. I am a fan of Chis Pratt's work. The cast was well picked and they all did great on their roles. The color palate of the film was continuous throughout the film. Cinematography was well done.
I am excited for the sequel coming up. I believe its either in pre-production or in production. (date: 3/23/16)
