The last big blockbuster of the summer, Guardians of the Galaxy, opens on Friday. Very fun if a little too shtick-y for my tastes, it ends the season on a relatively strong note. If you're keeping score of this year's Marvel entries, I liked X-Men: Days of Future Past and Captain America: The Winter Soldier better, but I certainly preferred Guardians to The Amazing Spider-Man 2. I reviewed Guardians for The Verge.
