    So my almost sister in law posted an article on FB today about how sexist the movie is... http://gingerhaze.tumblr.com/post/94387257773/in-what-way-was-guardians-sexist

    Am I the only one who's just not seeing this? I mean, yeah, the female characters' background wasn't deep, but except for Starlord, none of the 'guys' had a very extensive background either. Sure, Nebula's character is a bit lacking, but I can only assume it will be expanded in the sequel... I don't know, it's like as soon as a female character is a bit weaker (and I didn't find Gamora weak at all), it's called sexist. And that bothers me more.

    I mean, I agree that Marvel Studio needs stronger female characters, but honestly I don't care, I'm more interested in the dudes anyway :laugh:

    I saw this on Sunday night! It was so great! I already loved Chris Pratt from Parks & Rec.

    (Yeah, it was kind of sexist, but take what you like and leave the rest)

    Only passing familiarity with the storyline from the comic universe (which they seemed to change up anyway) but took my son to check it out. Absolutely LOVED it beyond all my expectations! Very cool flick and can't wait to see more with it.
    ~ Cheers!
