Someone clearly doesn't remember Doctor Strange...

In all seriousness, though, I do get what you mean by having similar settings, tone, and props, and having Led Zeppelin in the teaser doesn't help matters. There are three points I would use to counter this. First, Thor has done numerous similar sci-fi-esque adventures in the comics - hell, it makes me pissed to think they went that route and DIDN'T USE BETA RAY BILL. Second, as long as the story and characters are good (which they apparently are), having the setting and tone of another film is more than likely not going to be a problem. Third, Waititi's style of humor is completely different from Guardians': the latter is more about character farce and pop culture, while the former is more about absurdity and self-deprecation.
