Yondu's Best Moments - Guardians 1 & 2

[@7477238]

The only reason they killed off Yondu is because he was strong enough to easily eliminate Thanos.

Yup😂 love Yondu, is this series, he was amazing. Man I cried like a baby, when he died. He is hard, and I know ppl like that, but they have a heart but they don’t show it a lot of the times. And yeah..lo this movie and series hit home a lot. Love em.

“Put a bounty on him 40k but I want him back alive” Damn he still loves quill

[@dm3402]

You never realize that Yondu only said those things to placate his crew, even punishing him in front of the crew he was pulling his punches and making a show. "CAUSE YOURE SOFT, HERE! IN HERE!!!" LMAO if that isn't Yondu himself

Man, even in Yondu's first appearance, he had a very dad-like approach with conversing with Peter even if he tried hard to conceal it. You can really tell despite they don't always see eye to eye, Yondu really was Peter's daddy. Ego was only the father biologically but Yondu was the dad he needed.

The most inspiring thing about their relationship is how Yondu was more of a father to quill than Yondu’s own parents were to him, selling him into slavery as a child

[@Nin37373]

Never wanted Yondu to die. But I have to admit I think he’d rather die for his kid than live through the snap and know Peter got dusted

[@D_isTired]

I don't think he would've lived by himself if that happened.

[@mattmobile]

He woulda killed the whole universe to save his boy

[@ThomasBoyce5000]

Yondu would have been out for blood. He would have scoured the universe for Thanos and everyone involved for snapping Star Lord.

That is assumed if he survived the snap

[@allie_678]

At least Rocket would have had emotional support from Yondu after losing all the other Guardians in the snap, though.

3:10-3:14 Yondu's expressions here tell me he fully expected Peter to pull something out of his butt and save himself. I don't think he ever intended to kill him, but he needed a way to save face with the crew and an excuse to let him off the hook (again), and he knew Peter would come up with something.

[@JohnCastleSmokeless]

Yeah. He had to balance being Peter's dad and being the Ravagers' Captain. But he did it; he balanced those things. Just a fucking _epic_ character.

[@Spinosaurus44]

I think his final scene in Vol. 1 should have been included here as well because even though it's short it's very impactful and really shows us what kind of a man he is even from the first movie. It's when he opens the orb that supposedly holds the infinity stone and he sees that Peter has swapped out the stone for a troll doll, and he just looks at it smiling, not even a little bit angry. He probably knew all along that Peter would trick him, but he didn't expect the trick to be a personal gift for him which made him flash us a smile full of pride for his boy.

[@diaco423]

[@iansin7722]

Best part is the the smile at 3:09, its not because of the potential “biggest score”. It’s because yondu was desperately hoping for Peter to come up with a good excuse for yondu not to kill him. He didn’t want to kill him, but he knew that if he didn’t his crew would doubt him as a leader. So the only way Peter could live is that he give yondu a good excuse to leave him alive.

[@carnied.4016]

I made a ball! A ball? I thought as hard as I could and that’s all I could come up with You thought? You think when I make this arrow fly I use my head?! Seriously underrated lines in the whole movie!!! 🤗

[@jasonkmvang]

Yondu is a dope character. I hope he gets his solo. Great back story. Keeping his secret a real secret and took it to the grave.

[@Spinosaurus44]

since the MCU is making all of these shows that only a small part of the fandom want to see, I say why not make a show dedicated to young Quill and Yondu's adventures together in space in the style of animation they made for the Guardians Holiday Special, I think everyone would like that!

[@fudalefu1]

It’s not just a flashy Marvel Movie. It’s a hard ass father telling his non-biological son how much he loves and cares about him, in a very cold and harsh way, while sacrificing himself to save his son. It doesn’t matter the plot, subtext, or setting. If you make a good character driven story, people will be emotionally involved.

In hindsight, it so cool seeing Yondu smile as Quill starts saying "If you kill me now..." Back then it seemed like he was just being cocky. Now we know he was really just like "Okay good shit thanks for giving me an out on that one I was never gonna kill you"

[@harlockmail]

Peter : You said you were gonna eat me Yondu : that was just being funny Peter : not to me! great dad son conversation all the time

[@carelessdreamer]

“I’m Mary Poppins y’all” is such a great quote.

[@ButHerMama]

As a person who never got along with my biological father My step father was the man who showed me the world and how it works I couldn’t help but cry when Yondu sacrificed himself for Peter

[@ZukoHalliwell]

I met Michael Rooker at New York Comic Con a few years ago. I said to him, "After I saw the first movie, if someone told me that I'd be crying when Yondu died, I'd have said they were crazy." He said that it was all because James Gunn is such a great writer/director. Although, personally, I think Chris Pratt's performance (particularly 9:03) and Tyler Bates' score deserve some credit for making me cry.

[@mr.october2511]

You could see he loved Peter 😂😂😂

[@SonicGamerGirl2006]

Yep. Even when he tried to hide that around the Ravagers, it's clear that Yondu genuinely loved and cared for Peter too much to want to hurt him. He even showed reluctance to hand the Guardians over to the Sovereigns in the sequel! Even though Yondu is not exactly the best father figure to Peter Quill, he cared for Peter to the point where he sacrificed himself to save his adoptive son!

[@streetie4877]

"Use your heart, boy!" Was my favourite moment in GOTG 3

[@SonicGamerGirl2006]

I actually would love to see it, too. Learning about Yondu is good, but to show what happened to him before he became a Ravager, as well as how Yondu discovered what happened to all of the children he delivered to Ego that led him to keep Peter instead of delivering him to the Celestial would be much better.

"No, that's not how you drive, I might be from the backseat but I can tell you've got the wrong buttons on". "If you don't go to bed BOY, I'm going to serve you for lunch tomorrow". -"Rule 101 of stealing Quill, always play on their sympathies". "Here boy, you're 16, now let's make sure you can use it properly so you don't mess it up". Just Yondu trying to pretend he doesn't care but in actuality he's going dad mode.
