Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

I don't know.
Rocket is less of a moron, but he is a jerkass who steals batteries that he doesn't actually need.
I think without the rest of the guardians around to keep him in line (and him them sometimes) he'd probably cause a disaster on par with what Star Lord did, out of recklessness if nothing more.
I mean, this is the guy who failed to understand that letting the universe be destroyed was bad for him.
One Strip! One Strip!No idea about the lifespan of a flerken, but the comics do indicate that a single flerken may lay up to 117 eggs in a sitting.

All of the Guardians have flaws; they are a collection of anti-heroes and that goes with the territory. You may take issue with their actions for various reasons, but claiming that they are "not heroic" is kind of missing the point.

OMG, now I want to see the Avengers raising a litter of flerken kittens.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Usually a creature lays a bunch of eggs to make up for attrition from predation and whatnot
I think Flerkens just do it so they can smugly lounge in a room suddenly full of alien eggs
Flerkens also don’t seem too invested in actually raising their children. Granted, based on a sample size of one
Forever liveblogging the AvengersSo...in light of recent revelations regarding a certain member of the Wakandian royal family, now I can't stop picturing this scene
from Justice League Unlimited, but with Queen Ramonda (T'Challa and Shuri's mom) in place of the old lady and Thanos in place of General Eiling...

There is certainly no canonical data on the lifespan of flerkens in the MCU. Do the comics say anything about it?
What I wonder is where Goose was hiding for the entire 20 years between Captain Marvel and the present day. She could have been useful on more than one occasion.
