Guardians of the Galaxy 2

I'm so excited for this!  The whole Drax/Peter part there made me really excited to see how this film builds and moves on from the other film humor wise.  I hope they don't get bogged down in too crazy of a story because the fact they basically only played lip service to the first story and focused on the fun made it kind of magical for me.  Pure, pleasant spectacle.

Do you seriously have nothing better to do than get offended any time someone on the carolina huddle says they didn't absolutely love a marvel movie.

Do you seriously have nothing better to do than follow my posts that closely? I know I'm cute but you're not my type

Loved the first.  It could be the best Marvel movie yet, honestly, but it's close with a few.    It's a great sci-fi standalone movie anyway, because it's like the only movie where you don't feel Marvel is just introducing them so they can appear in the next group up movie (if that makes sense).   

Also one of the few Marvel movies my wife actually really liked and will rewatch with me lol.

Same here... along with Avengers 1, definitely the best Marvel movie to date.

Also same with the wife... she'll watch the others with little interest, but this one she loves... probably Rocket takes the credit for that "he's so cute" and such... also she cried over Groot at the end.

This. My fiance lost her poo over dancing baby groot. Like obsessed. Had to buy her the pop for Christmas. 

 

GOTG, Avengers and Winter Soldier are my top 3 marvel. I'm stoked for the sequel.

    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
