The original Guardians of the Galaxy was a treat for the eyes no matter what screen you happened to view it on, but IMAX viewers did get a few larger than life sequences just for them.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 will have a similar treat for fans, but this time around the project greatly benefits from having everything scheduled out ahead of time. At a recent visit to the Guardians set, director James Gunn discussed their approach this time around.
“Yeah, we’re switching aspect ratios just like did on the first movie. This time it’s a little more planned out ahead of time, but we switch between 2:35 and 1:89 aspect ratios.”
The good news is regardless of what screen you happen to view it on, Baby Groot will still be as adorable as ever. I Am Groot indeed.
Set to the backdrop of ‘Awesome Mixtape #2,’ Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 continues the team’s adventures as they traverse the outer reaches of the cosmos.
