I remember reading the X-Men in space comics. I don't remember the Guardians, though.
My only experience with them was their one appearance on Avengers: EMH and Starlord was voiced by Steve Downes (The Master Chief from Halo.)
Downes is actually the morning DJ on one of the local stations around here (which is actually where Bungie decided to hire him from, as they were originally based in Chicago before MS bought them) and it's still a weird disconnect some mornings hearing the Master Chief shilling for AT&T and talking about "Today in rock history".
I think you might be confusing the Guardians of the Galaxy with the Starjammers, Hec.
Definitely looking forward to Guardians of the Galaxy. It looks like it takes itself as unseriously as the concept demands.
And the trailer gets bonus points for gratuitous Blue Swede.
Ha, I knew you were talking about the Starjammers, but I thought they hung out with the Guardians in the comics or something (see above re: only watching the cartoon).
Back in the 70s, Marvel was on the verge of going out of business, and they had an inkling that Space Opera was going to be big, so they kept creating stuff and throwing it against the wall, and seeing if it would stick. (Including a very bizarre adapation of 2001: A Space Odyssey). They finally hit paydirt when they got the license to adapt Star Wars, which pretty much saved the company single-handedly.
That tagline, oh my God.
It's wunderbar. The only problem is it'll be hard to live up to it.
Now I want to see a remake of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" strictly for the tagline: Because wine.
Have we seen the Lego Movie blooper reel yet?

So cute.
My kids have that blooper reel memorized including the sound effects.
