It&#8217;s everything you loved from the first one: the action, the wit, the music, just the overall fun, but this time, it&#8217;s BIGGER! And though, sometimes\u00a0<em>bigger\u00a0<\/em>in movies is not necessarily a good thing. But it works so well here.<\/p>\n<p>What I love here is that nothing was lost from the first movie. VOL. 2 just built on everything I loved, and gave me more. Baby Groot without a doubt stole the show. But I think we all knew that was going to happen, haha. But for me, sequels rarely meet the original, but James Gunn definitely hits that mark, and quite possibly made a sequel better than the original. And I personally don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s an easy feat.<\/p>\n<p>And just for personal giggles, both as a comic fan, and a child of the &#8217;80s, loved actually catching some of the Easter Eggs this time out, and LOVED the overall vibe of the movie.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a child of the &#8217;80s too? You&#8217;ll see what I mean.<\/p>\n<p>So pretty much, if you loved the first one? You&#8217;re gonna love VOL. 2. Never saw the first one? But you&#8217;re looking for a fun ride? You&#8217;re gonna dig this.<\/p>\n<p>Safe to say, stop reading my babbles, and go see GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2!<\/p>\n<p>I AM GROOT!<\/p>\n<p>OH, just one last thing before I go&#8230; if you&#8217;ve already seen VOL. 2, and wasn&#8217;t sure what to do with the post-credits scenes? <a href=\"http:\/\/io9.gizmodo.com\/lets-break-down-all-five-of-the-guardians-of-the-galaxy-1794956328\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>io9<\/strong><\/a> has got you covered. <strong>BUT WARNING, POTENTIAL SPOILERS!<\/strong> But if you&#8217;re into it, check it out <a href=\"http:\/\/io9.gizmodo.com\/lets-break-down-all-five-of-the-guardians-of-the-galaxy-1794956328\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let&#8217;s be honest, you&#8217;re not gonna wait for anyone&#8217;s opinion or recommendation on this movie.
