Comments on: ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2’ Is A Worthy, Surprisingly Emotional Follow-Up To A Superhero Classic [Review] https://staging2.theplaylist.net/guardians-galaxy-vol-2-review-20170425/ Mon, 22 May 2017 08:53:00 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.2 By: David Webb https://staging2.theplaylist.net/guardians-galaxy-vol-2-review-20170425/#comment-153956 Mon, 22 May 2017 08:53:00 +0000 http://theplaylist.net/?p=363879#comment-153956 The movie was great fun in the moment, but the Gnostic (Demiurge) theology that’s injected into the last third of the movie was entirely disappointing and offensive. Quill literally states “I will not serve you” before killing his own father!

“The Force Awakens” also has another main character murdering his own father. It used to be that Disney movies killed off the parents to force a character onto an adventure where they’d grow up and become a stronger person. Now, Disney movies have the characters kill their parents so they can stay the same.

It’s all very odd and disconcerting, really!
