History Funny / GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2021

* Rocket convinces Peter that breathing in the powdered brain matter of the Celestial will rot his lungs. After it becomes clear that Peter is trying to hold his breath, Rocket bursts out laughing. At which point everyone else reveals they knew he was lying.

* When the rest of the Guardians are upset that Peter got them out of being arrested by the Nova Corps only to instead be sidled with a steep fine with a deadline, Peter gives each of them a rousing speech emphasizing their strengths. And when he gets to Groot...

* Once the Soul Stone is returned to Warlock he is informed that there's one last person he has to prove himself too: Kammy. Very, ''very'' begrudgingly he allows her to lick his face.

* The section where the team go to capture Fin Fang Foom, as everyone is pretty much expecting this to end in their deaths. Drax yells in excitement the moment he realises what Peter is suggesting, the crew sings a song that Drax teaches them, and even though he is worried about the threat he is facing Rocket still laughs along with the rest during dangerous situations. Not only is it hilarious to see them just embracing the insanity of the situation, it’s also heartwarming that they would all go along with such a crazy plan.

* Drax proposes that the Guardians use their upcoming partnership with Hellbender as a way to get them better jobs with other clients. But Gamora and Peter have to point out that the way he's proposing it is an extortion racket, which is definitely illegal, which puts the kibosh on the discussion.

* Drax objects to his and Gamora's team designation being Green Team because [[LiteralMinded his skin is teal, not green]]. Quill can only let out a small [[FlatWhat what?]]
* Early in the mission you come across a branching path. Rocket informs you that there's only one right path and the other leads to nothing. Naturally, most people familiar with this type of game would expect there to actually be some collectible or other item down the other path and will go down it to discover... nothing. Rocket was absolutely right.[[note]]On the way back you actually can find an alternate costume for Rocket based on his movie appearance but still, its funny.[[/note]]

* Every time you go back to the ''Milano'', the fridge door is open. [[RunningGag This becomes a saga.]] At the start of the game, Peter scolds everyone for leaving it open. Mid-way when you close it for the fourth or fifth time, Gamora is surprised to see Peter closing it, and everyone on the ship remarks that they've been closing the door as well. Finally, when she is onboard the ''Milano'', Mantis reveals the answer to the mystery: nobody's being a slob. The door latch is just broken. Not only that, but it's a ''universal constant''--every reality Mantis can see has ''that'' door broken. At the end of the game, Peter receives the "Key to Knowhere" (if he saved Cosmo) and [[MundaneUtility uses that to prop the damn thing shut]].

* At one point during their trek, after a close call, Peter swears at Maklu. Drax matter-of-factly reminds him that they are on Maklu IV, and that they “must respect the other Maklus.”

-->'''Peter''': Go for it, man. Flatter her or something.
-->'''Drax''': (''after a moment’s deliberation'') It is probably for the best. (''slaps Peter on the back'') [[BrutalHonesty Your negotiation skills are terrible]].

* At Seknarf Nine, should Peter go ahead with Drax throwing Rocket across the chasm, Rocket starts screamming angry alien slurs that he probably made up on the spot, followed by shooting his blaster at them.

* If the crew chose to sell Groot to Lady Hellbender, she’ll insist they stay the night. We then cut to Peter struggling to escape a cluster of tentacles presumably attached to one of Hellbender’s pets…[[BaitAndSwitch except]] they actually belong to [[TheCasanova Peter’s]] date.
-->'''Peter''': Of course, I’ll call you. I will call you.

* When Adam Warlock is about to fight Raker, Rocket shoots him in the leg. Warlock gives him a completely nonplussed look, and Rocket shrugs.

* After they've lost everything and have no way of tracking down Nikki, Rocket mentions he tagged Warlock with a tracker.

** A bit of dark absurdity, but sharp comic fans - or people simply familiar with real-world mythology - might recognize that Wendigos (which double as Marvel Comics villains) ''should'' be native to Canada, making their placement on an alien DeathWorld rather odd. Is it just another case of the game shifting continuities around? As it turns out, no. Around the site of the final battle with them, the player can find a hololog that explains it: they're apparently the result of a team of crashed Canadian astronauts accidentally dumping them on the planets surface. Peter, sadly, doesn't comment on this crazy coincidence.

* Since Peter can't/won't fire his weapons on Knowhere (at first), pressing the fire button instead makes him go "pew pew!" with finger guns.

* The team is not impressed with Adam Warlock's sanctimonious, condescending bullscut. At a point, when Warlock is fighting Raker, Rocket deliberately distracts him by shooting him in the ass. They then take the next opportunity to snigger about it behind Warlock's back...[[AddedAlliterativeAppeal with alliteration!]]:
-->'''Rocket:''' Did you see the look on his face? It was like, "ah, my gilded glutes!"\\
'''Gamora:''' ''(deep voice)'' Regal rear!\\
'''Drax:''' ''(regular voice)'' His perfect posterior, his...\\
'''Peter:''' Champion cheeks!
* If you have subtitles turned on, [[FunWithSubtitles they will usually refer to any noise Kammy makes as [[Insert descriptor here] Llama Noises].]]
* After Peter unlocks the fire blast on his guns, he jokingly dubs himself "The Meltinator." The rest of the team calls him out on what an AtrociousAlias this is and when asked for suggestions, they name him such gems as "Petey Hot-Guns" and "Captain Fireball," which he thinks are ''even worse!'' The name everyone but Peter eventually settles on is "Captain Heat Glob" which goes on to be repeatedly mentioned, including the battle against Fin Fang Foom.
* The Team sliding down a giant ice tunnel. Rocket’s terrified, while Gamora is having the time of her life. Everyone else joins in her laughter, even Rocket, who lets out a weak “Wheee!”
-->'''Rocket''': Are you out of your flarking mind?!
** After sliding down, Rocket muses how they’re gonna get back up, let alone wth Fin Fang Foom. Star-Lord’s responses are either “Suggest Crazy Idea” and “Suggest Crazier Idea”. The former is them riding Foom, which Rocket and Gamora think is dumb. The latter is them riding the Wendigos with Foom as their sled like Santa and his reindeer. They like this idea more.
* Every time you go back to the ''Milano'', the fridge door is open. [[RunningGag This becomes a saga.]] At the start of the game, Peter scolds everyone for leaving it open. Mid-way when you close it for the fourth or fifth time, Gamora is surprised to see Peter closing it, and everyone on the ship remarks that they've been closing the door as well.

Not only that, but it's a ''universal constant''--every reality Mantis can see has ''that'' door broken. At the end of the game, Peter receives the "Key to Knowhere" (if he saved Cosmo) and [[MundaneUtility uses that to prop the damn thing shut]].
* On the way to rescue Nikki, the Guardians discuss what will happen if they die. Drax says this:
-->'''Drax:''' We have found purpose. If we die, we will see Ultath. ''({{beat}})'' [[VerbalBackspace Correction.]] ''I'' will see Ultath. The rest of you will see whatever heathen paradises you believe in.
** The best part that even though he's calling the other Guardians "heathens", there's no contempt or malice in the line. It's delivered as plainly and bluntly as everything else he says, as if he just goes around calling people heathens all the time.
