How does that even happen? I thought movie theaters had to return copies of movies they were showing when they were done with them. How did they even have a copy of Rise of the Guardians? This is hilarious, but it really sucks for the people who bought tickets and stayed up until midnight to see GotG.
I went to a screening of Aliens which began after a long pause which began after the first ten minutes of Alien. A lot of theatres now don't show film; they use digital projectors that run DVDs.
I go to a cinema chain capable of playing film, streaming and playing DVDs.
No cinema chain is showing DVDs of major new releases, this mix-up did not happen because they mixed up two DVD boxes.
Okay.
And just as many people think that's Beta Ray Bill. I think there a bunch of people wanting to find easter eggs so bad that they're inventing them out of the slightest tiny little blurry object.
Well, it's probably an Easter Egg of something, we just don't know of what

I don't know if all theaters do it, but my local theater shows old kids movies during the summer. I was wondering if maybe they were showing Rise as one of those and somebody mixed the two up.
The beta ray bill thing was at the start - as for tiny and blurry, it was 15 ft and in 4k! :-)
OK, saw the movie yesterday. Great film. Not much I can add that hasn't already been said.
I did find it funny that most of Starlord's pop culture references were post 1978. The music was from the right period, but the Walkman itself wouldn't be released for another year and Footloose was still 6 years in the future.
ON another note, Peter gets abducted in 1978, then we get a "26 years later". So, doing the math, this film takes place around 2004. Before most of the action in the other MCU films.
Remember to take that into account when working out what the Collector does/does not have.

I thought he got abducted in 1988?
It was 1988 when Peter was abducted, not 78.
There was a "1988" onscreen caption as well, though it was probably easy to miss.
Grade: A-
As a dyed in the wool comic book to film fan I was hesitant when this project was announced. Marvel Studios had done much, much more right than I could've hoped. Warners had made us forget about Bat nipples. My GotG was the 31st century team on top of that so I had my concerns about doing Groot&Rocket to the big screen. I mean, this was the studio that had still yet to give us The Hulk as a talking, walking and fully interactive character parallel to his print counterpart. So what would be the plan with Groot/Rocket?
I was slowly won over and my concerns, like many of you, were alleviated. This film managed to match the caliber of it's best prior efforts. If not outperform, it outperformed my expectations.
I avoid 3-D as a rule cause I've found it disappointing and not very worthy when I've done so, ergo I saw GotG in standard 2-D. However, having read posts here and at the Box Office forums it seems that most found the 3-D worthy. My second viewing is going to have to be 3-D it seems.

Yes, Regal has their kids movies during the summer. Probably where the mistake came from; Gizmodo's article features a couple of technical explanations on what exactly happened:
