Sources say that the trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is set to drop this Sunday right when Doctor Strange makes its theatrical debut in select markets. This poster, and painfully adorable pic of Baby Groot will have to tie us over until then.

The team is definitely going crazy on some sort of twisted giant space squid monster here. The picture is a bit reminscent of the 'Old God's' from the Cancerverse -- an alternate reality with its first appearance in the Marvel Cosmic corner of comic book universe:



All I know for sure here, is you've gotta love Baby Groot!

Groot's not down.

Chris Pratt posted the first promo picture of the upcoming Gurdians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2 on his Instagram. That tiny little figure riding on Drax's shoulder appears to be Groot. Now the question remains, will Vin Diesel still voice Groot?

More importantly, if he does, will he have to do an adorable falsetto to match Groot's new stature?

On Monday James Gunn told a fan on Facebook something that everyone already assumed, namely that Vin Diesel would return to voice everyone's favorite sentient tree, Groot, in 2017's Guardians of the Galaxy 2. 



It's good, but somewhat irrelevant news, but then a typo lead to James Gunn scolding the rest of Facebook. We already know Marvel's line-up for the next 5-years, do we really need any more?

Turns out baby Groot wasn't just trolling Drax when he wouldn't let him see him dancing.  According to director James Gunn,

There was actually a scene that we cut from the movie where big Groot was dancing to 'Livin' Thing' by ELO. And it wasn't such an elaborate dance. It was more that he was just moving up and down like this, and Drax was dismissive and gave him this look like he was a loser when he did that.

Dancing is ludicrous to Drax. I don't think he understands it. If Drax owned a town, if he was a mayor, the first law would be no dancing. But yeah, so at the end of the movie, little baby Groot didn't want to get caught dancing, because he would kill him.

The more you know.  I say dance on little buddy, you've got moves!
