While the first GOTG movie had a light, humorous tone, it still took itself seriously. GOTG2 and TSS have this trippy, wacky, almost irreverent feel to it that makes them a few clicks short of a parody. Not quite but almost. It's the same issue that Deadpool2 had. So yeah, I'd hate for GOTG3 to go the same route. Not that GOTG2 and TSS were bad movies, far from it, but they certainly weren't as good as the reviews are saying and definitely nowhere near as good as the first GOTG. The trippy surrealism is actually something I could get behind. But the excessive and often unfunny humor is what ruined Vol 2 for me. Drax was a real character in the first movie. After that, he’s just there for “dumb guy” jokes. But the real downside is that Gunn unleashed allows his mean spirited demented side to take over. I’m honestly surprised that so many people found The Suicide Squad to be funny. It did have its moments, but it’s also twisted AF and incredibly immature- like a screenplay by an edge lord middle school kid. I mean, to be fair, when you have a property with a dark premise that has ‘suicide’ in the title, something like that is difficult to avoid.
