The Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy is one of the most beloved of all time, and not just within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The first film of the trio introduced audiences to a bunch of a–holes that became an incredibly important part of the MCU. It was a new direction for the franchise to take and a new universe to explore, and it became a top-ranking favorite for many from Marvel's entire filmography.
Chris Pratt fronts the Guardians as the dorky, adorable Star Lord. Having been taken from his family by Yondu (Michael Rooker) and the Ravagers when he was just a boy, Peter Quill grew up as anything but a normal kid. The first Guardians movie has one of the most heartbreaking opening scenes in the MCU. However, these movies, especially the first, have become known for their classic Marvel comedy better than any other addition to the franchise, and a large part of that is because of Pratt's ability to deliver Quill's physical and verbal comedy at its finest. The first Guardians will always be one of his best movies.
