Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017): 4 lines

  1. craft (craft) · through Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), which they acted in: Guardians of the Galaxy ⇒ Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (the host's read). Vol. 2 used a brightly blue Yondu and a bright Milano interior to dodge the washed-out look of the first film's color grading.

  2. lineage (lineage) · through Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), which they acted in: Guardians of the Galaxy ⇒ Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (the host's read). The sequel deepens Yondu's relationship with Quill so the first film's scene reads differently in retrospect.

  3. lineage (lineage) · through Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), which they acted in: Guardians of the Galaxy ⇒ Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (the host's read). The sequel doubles down on Yondu's arrow by building its best action sequence around it.

  3. craft (craft) · through Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), which they acted in: Guardians of the Galaxy ⇒ Captain Marvel (the host's read). The Flarkin cat in Captain Marvel is a version of the Drax metaphor joke, but this film's joke lands better thanks to the cut to his face.
