We all know the cast and crew has been hard at work on Guardians Of The Galaxy, the new sci fi epic from Marvel Studios. What we don't know however, is how much work has actually been done on the film. According to comicbook.com, James Gunn has has finished over "half" of the film!

Here is an excerpt from thier article:

"On Monday, September 2, 2013, Gunn shared another update on the filming status of Guardians Of The Galaxy. When asked how much of the movie he had already shot, James Gunn replied, “A little over half.”"

So there you have it. We all know that CGI had been prepped for months prior to filming (which is why we got so much Rocket and Groot fottage at comic-con), but to know that they are over halfway through filming gives promise that we may see a trailer as early as the end of the year!

Speaking of Gunn, here's an update from filming yesterday he posted on his twitter account

Hope the stuff we’re shooting tonight is as fun to watch as it is to shoot! @prattprattpratt @blackehart @Thejudgegunn @Simonlikes #gotg

And according to Chris Pratt today, the film is even closer:

As of today we are 66.3% done with #GOTG 55/83 = X/100 MATHEMATICS

I NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE!

Honestly I am a huge proponent of lesser known characters getting their own movies but I had doubts about this one. To be honest I didn't know anything about any of the guardians except Drax. And this is coming from a dude who has Ben lobbying for an Ant Man movie for the past three years. I can now say this is most likely to become my new favorite MCU movie, pushing Iron Man to second place.

Rocket Raccoon will own 2014.
