Okay this is something I wanted to write for so long. Something that everyone needs to get in their heads at this moment! You need to stop blaming Star Lord for the consequences of Infinity War. Yes, the gauntlet was nearly off but we shouldn't forget Doctor Strange said that out of fourteen million outcomes of Infinity War, there was only one that we had the chance to win, and we definitely are on that path! So chill out! *phew*

Also, remember when a few months back when some angry MCU stans attacked Chris Pratt on instagram with criticism? I mean, seriously guys? He was literally doing what was given to him in the script. Give him a damn break! Its okay to be angry on Star Lord but its definitely NOT okay take that heat out on Chris Pratt!

Okay, lets be realistic.

I was really angry when he did that. (Though that purple grape deserved to be hit far more harder than he hit him with that space gun thing). I went like, "Fucking sTop you idiotic half human! You're gonna get us all screwed up!" And indeed he did. Tony got stabbed, Vision got clawed and half the universe got ashed away.

But all these again only shows the character development that StarLord has gone through in all these years. We should have seen that coming.

Like we all know, Star Lord suffered with the extreme need of being with a family, with people he loved and cared about. He lost his mother in a very young age (in a very tragic way) and of course he wishes he said a proper goodbye. Then stayed with weird aliens which naturally made him weird too. Then he finally met the people who meant close to a family to him. The Guardians, though he would never agree, was everything he ever had. His life took a turn, he found his father and then he came to know that his father was the one who killed his mum. He had to kill him and in that process he had also lost the person who was like a father figure to him. After all that, it's quite obvious that saving Gamora (his lady love) was very important to him. It's no wonder he reacted! It's kind of the same thing that Tony did in Civil War.

Quill is impulsive by nature. In Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Quill unites with his long lost father Ego, a god, and for a moment enjoys the reunion. But when things take a turn and Ego hypnotizes hi and, in the process of explaining his evil plan, calmly reveals that, though it pained him, he had been the one to who put the tumour Peter's mother which eventually killed her. Suddenly, Peter snaps out of his hypnosis and blurts out, "What?!" and before even Ego could respond, Quill pulls out his space guns and shoots his father not once, not twice, but more than ten times.

Similarly, in this scene Quill does not take a moment to consider the situation. He does not consider that he is facing off with a the strongest being in the Universe at that moment. All Quill knew is that he sensed a deep and searing pain, and that he had to respond to that without hesitation, no matter what that would bring.

Also, we shouldn't forget that Quill was actually ready to sacrifice Gamora to stop Thanos, no matter how much it hurt him. He did pull the trigger to kill Gamora because he knew it was the right thing to do. That is what makes him a super hero. And his outburst makes him human. We should never forget that the only thing that makes people super-heros (and this definitely applies to the real world too) is that they choose to act for the good. But that doesn't mean that wouldn't make mistakes.

Anyways, did anyone notice the movie references made by Star Lord? In the beginning when he says "Put your mean faces on" thats actually a reference to Hemsworth's 'The Huntsman : Winter's War'. And where he raises up his fist to signal the guardians to stop, when they get to Knowhere to get the reality stone, thats a reference to his own movie 'The Jurassic World'. He use to do that to stop the raptors. No wonder Gamora didn't go left. She isn't a raptor for god's sake!

There's the chapter on Star Lord aka Peter Quill. I really didn't have much to say about him since we only have him in three movies with him. Hopefully we'll get more when Guardians of the Galaxy comes out! (Ooops! Spoiers, shouldn't have said that right?)
