Director James Gunn is in the final stages of a two year journey as he puts the finishing touches on Guardians of the Galaxy. The movie opens this August, and he's set to start his press tour soon. On the verge of releasing the Marvel Phase Two adventure into the world, where it will be officially out of his hands, he shared his thoughts on the entire process with his Facebook fans.
