That’s the dilemma facing director Matthew Vaughn in his quest to remake sci-fi/fantasy adventure Flash Gordon.
The influence of Guardians of the Galaxy (that is, on other superhero films) really can‘t be overstated.
Fair enough, setting himself apart from those two massively popular properties would be an uphill battle any filmmaker would have trepidation about taking on.
For me, the only problem with Flash Gordon is Guardians [of the Galaxy] kind of stole what I would have liked to have done with it.
