kaliwali - Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3

Well. I cried... A LOT

Even though I've been receiving tissue warnings for Guardians 3 for a literal YEAR now, I still wasn't ready. Rocket's backstory was so heartbreakingly dark. Every single flashback sent me spiraling all over again.Rocket has always been one of those guys that hides everything behind sarcasm, anger, jokes, and this general I don't need anybody but me kind of attitude. And now I know WHY.Lylla, Teefs, Floor...What was done to him..It completely changes how I see Rocket.He wasn't even just experiment on. He was treated like a THING. An IT to be changed, tested, thrown away whenever he wasn't useful anymore. But somehow, despite everything he went through, Rocket still became capable of loving people. Loving Peter. Loving Groot. Loving the Guardians.The fact that he spent so much time acting like he didn't need anyone when deep down.. I think that's exactly what he always wanted?? UGH.And the High Evolutionary... I HATED THIS MAN with the burning passion of 1,000 suns.There are villains that are fun to hate. There are villains that I'm fascinated by.But this man? NO.Every time he appeared on the screen I felt my blood boil.The way he viewed living beings as nothing more than failed experiments.He never cared about creating LIFE. He only cared about creating perfection.Life can never, ever be that. It defeats the entire purpose of what it is.As if this movie wasn't sad enough... THEY WENT AND BROKE UP THE FAMILY I know it's not really a 'breakup' and honestly, I loved where everyone ended up. Peter finally went home and got to reconnect to his grandfather. I feel like he's desperately needed this for a long time. Mantis went off to discover who she is and I never realized how much she needed that as well. Nebula finally got to build something instead of just being in survival mode. Rocket became the new Captain! And Drax realizing he was never the destroyer.. I love all of these endings for them individually.But also.. NO, I'm really struggling to accept this lol.But now I'm sitting here realizing that all of these Guardians movies... They were never really about the Guardians saving the galaxy. They were about the Guardians saving each other. So with that, I guess I can accept them going off to find themselves now that they're fully healed.
