Dude cut Disney some slack as they have never been in the animation business.I clicked away after a couple minutes. Amateur YouTube channel level animation. Just bad.

It's supposed to look low budget. Besides, only the flashbacks are animated.
I applaud the efforts to make Groots costume practical rather than CGI, but to me he just looked way off. It looked cheap, bulky and heavy.
Mantis’ amorality is just hilarious:
“Give it to me for free…. Give me all your money.” Literally, LMAO.
Yes. Best moment!Mantis’ amorality is just hilarious:

I also hate the Bakshi style, but it was totally appropriate for this special. It was very fun as a whole, and I’m continually surprised at just how much Gunn has managed to mine from this little outcast group of C-tier heroes.Yes. Best moment!
As for the animation… knowing Gunn’s tastes, and how he’s done animation in the past, he’s going for a look, and in this the look appears to be “Bakshi”
To get that specific look you gotta straight up rotoscope the whole thing… keep it on like 4-8 frames a second… it gives it that weird look that even Bluth couldn’t let go of (And looks awful)… but the second I saw it I thought “yeah… he would go for the Bakshi look! Ha! I hate it, but suits what he’s going for here”.
Quill starting Yondu’s dashboard collection and the guns gift was a nice moment… builds on their lore, and as stated above… this siblings theme may run into the next flick. Mantis being what she is really grows her part in the group
So no shock, really happy with it… as a Guardians, Gunn, and Christmas special crap fan!
