The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special

The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is much better than the Star Wars Holiday Special, though it may not be as memorable. This is a simple story about an inconsequential adventure for Drax & Mantis, who actually work pretty well as a comedic duo. And since it's a short Christmas tale, problems are resolved with a wave (or touch) of the hand, and the ending is wrapped up nicely with a little bow. I do wish they hadn't tried to cram modern Christmas hits in every couple of minutes--that was a little distracting. Still, this is better than most of the stuff we've gotten in Phase 4 of the MCU.

The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special is the 2nd Marvel Special.

It's a fun little Christmas story with little stake and that is perfectly fine. However, it doesn't mean that the special doesn't give important information because it certainly does.

I really appreciate that for the special, Star Lord isn't the main character. This special was a perfect way to give other characters more of a spotlight and in this case it was Mantis.

One minor issue I had in GOTG2 was that Mantis was more of a joke character who was not remotely as cool as her comic counterpart. The special finally gives us a Mantis that is more competent which was great. Additionally, we get to see more of Drax's ability as well. Unfortunately, Mantis and Drax are still treated as idiotic characters which is a shame. While Mantis is slightly forgivable because she actually has a serious dilemma and aim but Drax is just really dumb and I really want him to be more serious in GOTG3.

Overall, a fun little 40 minute special that adds more to the Marvel universe. So far the specials have been great and I hope they continue this trend.

After Werewolf By night Guardians Of the Galaxy holiday special is the next Marvel Special Presentation. After endgame we see Guardians again on our screens. No I do not count Thor love and thunder cause they were there for 5 minutes only.

Mantis and drax want to make Peter have a beautiful time at Christmas. So they decide to bring him as a present Kevin Bacon. They travel to Earth and After creating such a chaos they take him to Peter.

Guardians of The galaxy Holiday Special is very funny But the main point it is not the commedy. Peter is in pain cause the loss of Gamora. And his friends are doing everything they can to make him feel better. That is the point of this special. To show one more time the love between the Guardians.

I cannot wait to see them again in vol3.

I found this by chance on a streaming site the other day. I've only seen the first GOTG but I liked it so I watched this to see what it was like, especially being christmas themed as I am a huge christmas fan.

I loved the story, loved the christmas theme, loved the set decor, loved the feeling behind it all and making the legendary Kevin Bacon into a mythical figure. Having his real wife call him on the phone was a fab stroke of genius.

You might not love this but I doubt that there is anyone at all who will dislike it. It's non stop fun and entertaining from start to finish.

I think it's time I watched all GOTG films as soon as I get a weekend free.

This Christmas special is all I wanted it to be. A shot, (bitter)sweet special with usual Gunn humor. This captures the Christmas spirit perfectly.

This short also explores themes of fatherhood, friendship and contains some songs too without overstaying its welcome.

Mentis takes lead in this, which is great because she doesn't get much chance to shine. Drax is great as always. You can see that this does not bother itself with it being connected to the rest of MCU, not even its own sequel. Which is rare as for the rest of MCU stock. The animations used in this is also good.

Also, Kevin Bacon.
