Phew, now that the boards are back up I can finally spill all of this out.

Man! So first of all, James Gunn was on a movie podcast I listened to frequently. It was a fantastic interview where Gunn revealed a lot of great stuff about alternate versions and cut scenes.

Turns out James Gunn and myself run on pretty much the same wave length. All of his ideas for what he wanted to do with a space opera were the same as mine. I also had no idea they hired Chris Foss to design their ships! I thought they looked heavily influenced by his work but they actually got the man himself!

So anyway, that podcast got me all fired up to watch all of the making of stuff on the blu-ray. WHAT A TEASE THAT STUFF IS. Gunn talks about some awesome cut stuff in that podcast but none of it is included in the deleted scenes or seen anywhere in the bonus features. There's so much material they held back and I WANT IT NOW!
