Now it’s just a question of where this technique will take him next.
This sounds like a running theme for James Gunn, as he was continuously willing to tinker and experiment with the more subtle moments of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 to capture the best possible scene.
If the gag reel from the original Guardians of the Galaxy is anything to go by, it also appears that this is a mentality that Gunn has maintained throughout the duration of his time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Rather than slave himself to the original vision of the script, he’s willing to work with people on the set and crowdsource ideas; if something better comes up during production, then they will consider it and potentially use it in the final cut of the movie.
