There was no dance off, Quill just distracted Ronan for a moment with a baffling bit of spontaneity while Rocket and Drax fixed the gun. The scene is brilliant and hilarious. You're just being a stick in the mud because no one snapped Ronan's neck inside a church.

Okay, you're right, it wasn't a dance off. I still hated the scene. Like I said, it ruined the movie for me.

You like humor whenever it can be used, I don't. That doesn't make me a stick in the mud.

I also can't recall liking any neck-snapping scene in a church. Am I missing something?

How so? What was Quill supposed to do, instead? Challenge Ronan to a fight? That's what Ronan would be expecting. He'd have just brought the hammer down and killed everyone. Quill needed to surprise him, get him to pause, and the surest way to do that was to do something that just completely takes the piss out of Ronan's grandstanding. The scene makes perfect sense.

The film is goofy and irreverent as all hell, anyway, but Quill's dancing is where you drew the line? This is why I roll my eyes whenever somebody whines about the "dance off." One of the major themes of the Guardians sub-franchise is "people dancing through life and hardship." The film set the tone and the theme in place with Quill dancing through danger in the opening credits scene, as well as establishing his character. So yeah, distracting Ronan by dancing was a completely in-character thing for him to do.
I guarantee right now that no one would have complained about the scene before it became popular to bitch and moan about everything.

Wrong. I don't like humor whenever it can be used, and you ARE a stick in the mud. You're way overblowing a non-issue by claiming it ruined the film for you. Such nonsense.

Its a reference to Man of Steel.
