GotG2: Not quite as good as the first, but only by a small degree. There's not a whole lot wrong with this to complain about.
Will probably see it again in the theatre, just to take in the visuals and look for easter eggs.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Also: the best performance in the film was Karen Gillan.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
She acted Emma Watson off the screen in "The Circle."

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

... which wouldn't have been that hard. *rimshot* I mean, I love Watson as Hermione to bits, but her post HP movie roles have not been impressive for her range. But now that the new B&B remake has made gazillion dollars, she'll likely be in everything. Ah well.
As for Gillan, Insert here yet another wail about how much I liked Selfie and sadface at its premature cancellation

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I didn't see it until after it was cancelled (thank you, internet), and I am also in the wailing camp. That was a GREAT show.

Wasn't it? Gillan and John Cho had smashing chemistry together. Oh, man, Eliza's drunk, heartbroken rendition of "Chandelier"! MY HEART [link]

Honestly? I like it WAY better than Sia's version.
And I loved all the supporting characters. LOVED. #TeamCharmonique

All is well that ends in pizza.
Selfie definitely got a raw deal.
As far as Mac, couldn't they figure out a way to speed up the time passage in the Framework? Do a Captain Picard thing, then pull him out?
Also, I think Aida teleported Fitz, but not back to the Framework. I'm assuming she's going to try and tap into the Leopold side of him. I'd like to have him play along until he sees an opportunity, or makes one.
I wouldn't mind FitzSimmons taking her down together.

I loved when Fitz told Simmons to get on her knees and she just said straightforwardly "No." He's going to be really messed up when he remembers he shot her.
Aida fears Simmons.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I sure wouldn't want Simmons as an enemy.
