User blog comment:LoveWaffle/We Didn't See It Coming - Iron Man 3 and the Future of the MCU/@comment-5473242-20130513211957/@comment-1895174-20130514015640

Walking out of the theater after seeing Iron Man 3, I was talking with a friend about the upcoming superhero movies. He thought Guardians of the Galaxy is Avengers 2.

If there's enough people that think likewise, THAT might be the best thing Guardians has going for it.

The worst things going for it? General obscurity of the property and the August release date. August is where summer movies go to die.
