    And with that tagline we see that this will be some fun shit about to go down.

    The reason I think Guardians of the Galaxy will ultimately work is that it is so different. Audiences have had seven years to get used to what the Marvel formula is in movies. The only way you do not grow stale is to change things and Guardians is definitely going to be a change.

    Now that the first trailer has been released, Marvel is in full-on marketing mode with the poster above as well as individual video profiles for each of the Guardians of the Galaxy. They are only around 30 seconds a piece so give them a watch. We also get our first tiny preview of Bradley Cooper voicing Rocket Raccoon.

    Guardians of the Galaxy releases on August 1st.

    There has been no studio confirmation, but reports are saying that Marvel Films has found its lead in James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy. Parks and Recreation alum Chris Pratt has reportedly nabbed the role of Peter Quill known as Star Lord on the intergalactic team. Pratt beat out the likes of Joel Edgerton, Jim Sturgess and Jack Huston from Boardwalk Empire who all tested for the role.

    The movie version of Guardians of the Galaxy will consist of Star Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Drax the Destroyer, Gamora and Groot.

    Adam Sandler and Jim Carrey have been in talks for an unspecified role but rumors suggest it will be for the voice of Rocket Raccoon. The role of Drax the Destroyer has been narrowed down to Isiah Mustafa, Brian Patrick Wade and former WWE wrestler Dave Bautista.
