Hero Complex: OK, so why Groot?

 

Vin Diesel: I?m an actor. I can do whatever the ? I want. As an actor, not everything has to be the most obvious choice. And sometimes, the best thing you can do ? as far as Steven Spielberg and his advice ? is to defy expectations. So if everybody thinks you?re going to go for this one thing and you flip it entirely and go for the strangest Marvel character, it?s interesting. And when something is interesting, it?s inspiring.

 

Why did you post a picture of the character on Facebook this weekend?

 

Diesel: I get inspired by things. So if somebody sends me a book of conceptual art that?s the best character design work I?ve ever seen ? I?m not kidding, I see that and I want to be a little cryptic and I want to say something positive. Even if it?s as cryptic as an old, dated image of a character.

 

Marvel is notoriously secretive about its movies, and you?re very open. Isn?t it mad you?ve been dropping hints about ?Guardians??

 

Diesel: The last thing they are is mad. I?m pretty open, but I have been secretive about this. I went to Comic-Con and I got blasted while I was on the Hall H panel for ?Riddick.? Someone asked a Marvel question. I couldn?t say anything because of that secrecy.

I bet that's a fan-made picture because the cut out looks pretty cheap. They basically just cut out all the characters from the concept-art image, haha.

 

James Gunn tweeted it himself and he's the director lol

    • RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers can now jump in and grab two more games to keep this week, as the Epic Games Store's ever-present giveaway promotion has just gone through another refresh. Replacing last week's Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat offers, the store has brought in RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought to keep. From the duo, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition is an enhanced version of the classic title that was originally released in 2004. It comes with enhancements such as widescreen and 1080p resolution support, as well as increased compatibility with modern PC hardware. It also comes bundled with all the extra content from the Soaked! and Wild! expansion packs. "Control park finances, shops, services and staff to succeed in dozens of scenarios," reads the description. "Become a true tycoon and embark on your promising new career, or create your ideal park without money woes in sandbox mode. Satisfy your guests’ needs and keep your park running smoothly to succeed." If management is not your style, Voidwrought lands as a 2D action-platformer featuring hand-drawn cosmic horrors. The title touts tight platforming and close‑quarters combat, all brought together with a strong emphasis on mobility. "Descend below the star-scorched surface and explore the multidimensional depths below," says the studio Powersnake about the game. "Witness the corrupted revelry of the Court, lose yourself in the icy tunnels of the Old Waters, and discover the grim fate of the Abandoned Expedition." The RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take their place on the same day as always. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
