Wonder Woman hails from Paradise Island, later dubbed Themyscira, which is home to the Amazons. Her mother is Queen Hippolyta, which makes her Princess of the Amazons. Inspired by Greek mythology, the Amazons are a race of warrior woman living free from men. The story of how the Amazons came to call the island home has changed over time, with one version saying that they parted from Greece to escape the evil deeds of mankind and another saying they are the reborn souls of abused women. All of the Amazons are well-trained in combat from a young age, which makes Wonder Woman a formidable foe in a fight thanks to her combination of combat skills and god-like powers. At one point, Batman considered Diana to be one of the best melee fighters on the planet.

SOUND DESIGNER BEN BURTT CREATED A WHOLE NEW WORLD OF SOUNDS. Now-legendary sound designer Ben Burtt got his start on Star Wars fresh out of USC film school. He was tasked with coming up with a completely new and organic soundscape for the movie, which was at odds with the trend of creating intentionally electronic and “futuristic” sounds for sci-fi movies at the time. The first sound effect he created was Chewbacca’s voice, which is a blend of bear, lion, walrus, and badger vocalizations. R2-D2’s “voice” was made using loops on a synthesizer matched with beeps and boops modeled after baby coos performed by Burtt himself. Darth Vader’s infamous breathing was recorded by putting a microphone inside a regulator on a scuba tank. The Tusken Raider yowl is a mixture of mule sounds and people imitating mule sounds. The lightsaber whoosh was made by blending the hum of an idle 35mm film projector and passing a slightly broken microphone cable by the tubes of an old television set..

Gunn changed the ending because he thought the original was just too darned sad. Gunn's original vision for the end of Guardians of the Galaxy involved the Collector, Nebula, and Peter Quill's grandfather, played by Gregg Henry. In an interview tied to the Blu-ray release of the film, he explained that Henry's moment in particular—which took place in the present, with Henry wearing old-age makeup—was just too much of a downer to keep. "He has this photograph of Meredith (Peter Quill's mother) and Peter as a little boy, and he looks up at the stars, and we go up to the stars, and it was really sweet," said Gunn. "It means that he must have seen Quill getting abducted at the end of that day and is still waiting for him to return. But it was freaking sad, so we took it out."

There was almost an additional member of the Guardians in the film: Bug.. The character of Bug has been a part of Marvel Comics since the comic book company obtained the rights to produce a Micronauts comic, based on the Mego toy line. (He was originally known as Galactic Warrior, but because the comic character looked nothing like the toy, they changed his name and made him their own.) Bug bounced around the Marvel Universe for years, eventually turning up in—you guessed it—Annihilation: Conquest, and James Gunn was psyched about the idea of utilizing him in the film, but as he mentioned on the podcast The Movie Crypt, "There was a really good chance Bug was going to show up in the first film, but we do not own him."

Peter Quill's mother Meredith was impregnated when the planets of the solar system aligned in a particularly sexy way. Now, Meredith was married, but this guy failed to see his resemblance in the space baby and assumed his wife had cheated on him. He did not take this well, and tried to kill baby Peter, failing only because he had a heart attack at the last minute. Marvel retconned this before too long, because it's pretty messed-up. Instead, Meredith got knocked up by a humanoid alien named J'son from Spartoi, who leaves because his people are in a war with another alien race, and because it's too dangerous to take his new family. Thus he becomes an intergalactic deadbeat dad, leaving nothing behind for his son but his element gun.

The Guardians were actually formed to fight an alien race called the Badoon, which had taken over most of the galaxy in 3007 A.D., and had destroyed a significant portion of the humans throughout the galaxy. They'd occasionally call heroes like Captain America to the future to lend them a hand, or even travel back to the 20th century to get info about an earlier failed Badoon invasion and completely mess with the timeline (e.g., 20th-century astronaut Vance Astro meeting his younger self, awakening his superpowers early, and basically leading to him becoming an entirely different superhero).
