Because the story they wanted to tell couldn't be done in under 2 hours. At least not in a way to leave a meaningful impact. This movie could have easily been a episode of a Justice League cartoon with how rushed the plot was. Hell this could have been a straight to DVD Avengers movie for Marvel to make a quick buck. I haven't seen it so I obviously can't say, but I'm curious. Guardians had them fighting over the orb while establishing both Ronan and the Ravagers, and then they get imprisoned, there's a huge breakout scene, then Knowhere and The Collector are established, The Nova corp coming after them, a huge breakout scene, a reconciliation and plan formed with the Ravagers, and then a coordination with Nova and a massive final battle.
What was going on in Justice League that was more extensive?
3 origin stories for 3 main characters that are more than just minor space criminals. There's a entire backstory for Steppenwolf that we don't fully get. At least with Ronan they gave us something, Steppenwolf was pretty much "me collect boxes. Why? LOL " There's the bullshit with Superman and his resurrection. An Batman thats apparently suicidal for some reason. The aftermath of BVS and how lois lane and how she's handling it. A lot to cover in a 2 hour film. Guardians at least had a simple plot that didn't split into multiple paths
