PEOPLE GET READY

People get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board

All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
don't need no ticket
You just thank the Lord

People get ready
For the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers
From coast to coast

Faith is the key
Open the doors and board them
There's room for all
Among the loved the most

There ain't no room
For the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just
To save his own

Have pity on those
Whose chances are thinner
Cause there's no hiding place
From the kingdoms throne

So people get ready
For the train a-coming
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board!

All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
don't need no ticket




You just thank,
You just thank the Lord

Atharva Sharma

I am ready to watch the movie
Not ready to say goodbye to this amazing franchise
Thank you James Gunn and Marvel for giving us this team
Not emotionally ready to see this ending forever šŸ˜¢
There will be deaths ,there will be heartbreaks and surprises
This trilogy will be one of the best not only in MCU but as a whole
Spiderman and captain America are my other two favourites trilogy
I love Ironman but after the first part only the third part was overall good
But i would love to see doctor strange 3 in future and Black Panther 3 as well
Maybe everyone should take one napkin to the movie hall this will be a emotion heavy movie

I like how Nebula and Peter get a lot more banter since Rocket is away from the team for a portion of the movie and Gamora is a different person.

Jkjazz123

I mean going forward they may be the only remaining team members staying together other than mantis. Donā€™t know if Gamora is sticking around after and Drax actor is leaving. Hopefully we get to see more of Nebula and Peter banter in future projects if they donā€™t keep them for a future guardians team. They could do a whole new roster next guardians movie šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø

ā€‹@Jkjazz123 i don't think pratt will continue after the backlash he got

DoomestosYT

They might be the next couple. It would be kinda weird if Peter seduced a different Gamora just because he loved the og one. But this Nebula was by his side for a while now. New Gamora points to Peter talking to her as if he was talking to Nebula in the first trailer too. For laughs. Sure. But we're getting more footage of direct banter between them so there has to be something in there.

I think both him and Neb will be grieving together and trying to accept that their Gamora is gone. Once they're at peace with this they can start healing eachother.

Arturo Castroverde

@DoomestosYT nah, i want peter and gamora together again. Some respeft for my boi quill!!!! The russos did him dirty.

Kurt

@DoomestosYT no, please not that.
