I enjoy Volume 1 of the Guardians of the Galaxy films. It's like Brooklyn Nine-Nine in the case of combining action on the job with comic and dramatic elements. Gamora is like Black Widow in that she seems to be a bewitching lethal weapon at first, but she has more human elements than meets the eye.

The same goes for her sister Nebula and her teammate Rocket Raccoon, in that they both just want to be loved and act all psychotic and macho because no one wants to give them that love, until Peter Quill dances in like Kevin Bacon to stop the bigots with polls up their butts.

That seems to be a recurring pattern for the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. From Tony Stark to their mainstream Peter Parker, everyone has lost some kind of family member and there are people in the world that barely give them the time of day unless they release some brutal nature or something. No matter how twisted it gets, in the end, these heroes prove their worth and find love, for themselves, if not from others. I await to see what crazy girl power and family dynamic gets portrayed in The Marvels, and what other things the MCU plans to do.
