Should Paul Rudd have been Star-Lord in GOTG?


Chris Pratt was amazing in Parks & Rec but that shtick didn't work for me in GOTG, and after seeing Ant Man I'm wondering how Rudd would have been in Pratt's role? We'll never know of course, but conjecture is what conjecture is.

Well, it's all opinion I guess , but I thought that Pratt was excellent in GOTG, and Rudd was excellent in this. I wouldn't want it any other way

No. Rudd is more subtle with his humor and that isn't what is called for in the role of Peter Quill.

Ummmm no

Rudd probably would have delivered some funnier improv moments as Star Lord, but... I can't picture him in that role overall. He was a great choice for Ant-Man and now I find him cooler than ever because of said role.

No, and the whole rest of the world disagrees with you.

No, but they could have given Rudd's Scott Lang a little more personality. He was good; I just expected him to be funnier after so many years of great comedy roles.

reply

No, I enjoyed Paul Rudd in Ant-Man.

Pratt is a perfect Starlord but Rudd would also be an excellent choice.
