In a brief interview with Total FilmGuardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn chatted about the just-released trailer for his upcoming Marvel Comics adaptation, telling the site that  “There is no doubt that the cinematic pinnacle of my career is our cameras circling around a maniacal raccoon shooting a machine gun on the back of a living tree,” and joking that “And I say this with as much modesty as I can muster – because certainly it is not me, but the hand of God guiding us all as we make this film – but it just may be the pinnacle of cinema in general.””When we shot it we were twirling around an empty space in a giant set,” the director continued. “But I think all of us could see the raccoon and the tree in our minds. They were already starting to form. I can’t wait to share them with everyone in August.”
