Yup, GOTG was James Gunn. And it was by far the most heartfelt series in the entire MCU, despite it being one of the lowest rated comic series. He's good at what he does because he brings heart to his stuff. I can't say I agree with his soundtrack choices, but that's a very minor complaint. He's a master storyteller, and delivers depth of character, even when there wasn't any before.
Honestly, some of his soundtracks are pretty dank, like Peacemaker and Creature Commandos, but in general I'm just glad he has actual taste and opinions at all instead of making committee-designed market-tested vanilla paste choices like so many other films we see these days.
His soundtracks suck shit but his character development is second to none outside Rick and Morty. I just can't with hair metal.
