I read some, but he reads basically all of them, so he tells me about the characters and things. Also, sometimes I steal comic books from him and read them, too. So I already knew some things about guardians of the galaxy and about thanos from both reading and my husband. And trying to keep up with his conversations with his friends, lol.<br /><br />And that movie was amazing on so many levels. I enjoyed it just for the characters, but also for the references it kept making. There are some random things I am obsessed with in the comic book universe and that movie referenced more than one of them.<br /><br />First of all, the astronaut dog, his name is Cosmo and him and rocket raccoon absolutely hate each other. I LOVE Cosmo and can't wait until he actually talks in the movies (he's telepathic). I know the arguments between the two of them will be epic and I kept squealing whenever he was on the screen.<br /><br />I told my husband that even though Cosmo didn't talk, my three favorite characters were two animals and a tree. (Cosmo, Rocket, and Groot.)<br /><br />And also I'm obsessed with Thanos and the Infinity Gauntlet. And both those things were referenced in the movie. The stone that they kept fighting over is one of the pieces of the Infinity Gauntlet.<br /><br />And it just makes me have a nerdgasm. I'm just sad because I couldn't afford to see the movie more than once.E.B. Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03954156488722828443noreply@blogger.com
