Now that I’ve seen Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” a couple of times I’m trying to decide if it goes on my all time favorites list. Only time will tell, but to help me decide, I’ve started searching out great interviews with the cast to get a feel for what it was like making the film.
Just released today is a short interview with Star Lord himself, Chris Pratt, talking about getting in shape for the film and what it’s like to be a comic book character.
Pratt is basically the new Han Solo, until such time as the real Han Solo recovers from his broken leg and films the next Star Wars movie.

A few weeks ago those in the know would have told you Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” had a tough road ahead of it. It had unknown characters, an unproven lead actor, a director best known for films that are kind of out there, and was opening in an already dreary summer as far as box office goes. A Marvel film without super heroes? Who would go see it?
Turns out, just about everyone. Early estimates for the weekend show James Gunn’s space opera ringing in $94 million in space credits. That’s a new record for August openings.
