Finally got round to seeing Guardians 3.... What a waste of 2 1/2 hours that was. I enjoyed the first 2, but 3 was just terrible. The "story" is awful. Numerous, cheesy, cliché bits thrown together here and there. Nothing interesting or very cohesive. Nothing ever had a sense of consequence.

Even the soundtrack couldn't quite save it (though was easily the best part).

"Written and Directed by James Gunn".

Good luck DC, you're gonna need it.

Multiverse is the dumbest cheapest excuse you can have for totally running any running series for exactly this reason.

Like. Congrats. Your characters matter as much as the ones in rick and Morty now

Yeah I agree. They could have in theory made the multiverse with some stakes in it. The Loki show did a good job with it imo. But after that I don't know if they fired a lot of writers or what, because anything that has to with the multiverse is just boring.

With how good the first run was (infinity saga) they could bank on two more main arcs. Multiverse should have been the third, or last, main story arc. Saving the universe just to turn around and say it doesn't matter because there's an infinite universes anyways is really weak.

Multiverse is a reset button. Not a second chapter.
