James Gunn hid some subtle shade at the MCU’s favorite villain trope in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
Good news, Guardians of the Galaxy fans, the Marvel Studios Assembled making-of special is finally streaming on Disney Plus. It’s full of various interesting tidbits, including James Gunn doing his best to throw some shade on the MCU without actually throwing any shade on the MCU.
