GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Star Michael Rooker Finally Got To Meet Mary Poppins, Y'All

One of the best scenes in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 came courtesy of Michael Rooker's Yondu declaring that he was Mary Poppins. Now, the actor has shared an Instagram post you need to see!

"I'm Mary Poppins, y'all!" Yondu declares after Star-Lord assures his father figure that he looks cool floating down towards Ego's core in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 moments after comparing him to the iconic Disney character. That line has since taken on a life of its own with t-shirts and fan-made posters like the one below, but Michael Rooker has taken to Instagram to share a brilliant photo.

As you can see, the actor finally got to meet Mary Poppins this past weekend and this is bound to increase fan support for Disney to give the actor a role in the upcoming sequel which stars Emily Blunt.

Yondu stole the show in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, with this scene among his most memorable. The movie took him from a fun supporting player to a firm fan-favourite, and while he may now be finished with the franchise, chances are his acting gigs will be dramatically increasing after this!

She's Mary Poppins y'all... just kidding... #immarypoppinsyall #yondu #GotGVol2

One of my favourite lines from the movie....got a huge laugh in my theatre.

How can he meet himself? 🤔

CaptainElrond - 5/17/2017, 6:26 AM

@TexasAvenger - Multiverse.

RagnarGolem - 5/17/2017, 6:29 AM

One of the best moments! Hahaha!

DrReedRichards - 5/17/2017, 6:30 AM

This, Pacm-Man, and the 700 jumps had me literally spilling coke out of my nose! X'D

MattBellissimo - 5/17/2017, 6:42 AM

@GreekCreekGeek - The space-jump was my least favourite scene, personally. It verged on cartoon territory there.

DrReedRichards - 5/17/2017, 6:47 AM

@MattBellissimo -

The fact that it actually went full cartoony with the effects on their faces (mostly on Rocket's) was what made me love it.

Spock0Clock - 5/17/2017, 6:55 AM

@MattBellissimo - I agree. I'd like to think it was a direct homage to John K. or something, so it wasn't just an odd choice but Gunn being a little too self-indulgent.

It felt almost like a set-up with no punchline. Like the camera was going to pan to one of them, but they were totally comedicly fine.

RagnarGolem - 5/17/2017, 7:05 AM

@MattBellissimo - That's the weird thing about GOTG, I laughed so much with the space-jump scene. Hahaha!

Jezi - 5/17/2017, 7:38 AM

@GreekCreekGeek - Maybe I'm made of stone but; That space-jump scene was too much for me, as in, to cartoony and out of place.

DrReedRichards - 5/17/2017, 8:05 AM

@xAdam -

To each their own, my man. Personally, I don't think I would have loved it as much if it hadn't gone fully absurd, with the cartoony effects on their facial expressions and their over-the-top screaming.

Greengo - 5/17/2017, 8:28 AM

Space-jump scene FTW!

JohnnyTBP - 5/17/2017, 6:30 AM

Fantastic. Yondu stole the show

GeneralZod - 5/17/2017, 7:07 AM

@JohnnyTBP - rocket too.

Yondu was great in this movie. I hope we still get some Rooker action in VOL3

Spock0Clock - 5/17/2017, 6:38 AM

*Laugh, cry, laugh, cry.*

James Gunn is killing me.

RagnarGolem - 5/17/2017, 6:39 AM

Soon here, those guys (you know who) saying the movie isn't that good, disappointment, not making a billion, etc.

They can't hold back, they can't miss a chance. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Spock0Clock - 5/17/2017, 6:41 AM

@RagnarGolem -

MattBellissimo - 5/17/2017, 6:41 AM

@RagnarGolem - @Spock0Clock has been waiting all morning

RagnarGolem - 5/17/2017, 6:44 AM

@MattBellissimo - @Spock0Clock - HAHAHAHA! That's great!

Does anybody have any tape?

Eli - 5/17/2017, 4:19 PM

@RagnarGolem - Doesn't the film need to gross $1 billion just to break even?

;p

RagnarGolem - 5/17/2017, 4:43 PM

@Eli - Maybe, with a very big budget, very expensive marketing and many weeks of reshoots.
