But it isn’t long before their lives are upended by the echoes of Rocket’s turbulent past.

We have your chance to see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 TWO DAYS before the film is released. All you have to do is comment below with your favorite “Guardian.” I’ll go first– I love Zoe Saldana and everything she touches. So, of course, Gamora is my favorite.
