'Guardians of the Galaxy' Extended Trailer Is Sufficiently Awesome (VIDEO)

As we near August 1st, the hype for Guardians of the Galaxy is reaching a fevered pitch. And videos like this brand new, extended trailer are only adding to the excitement.

This trailer has an insane amount of stuff we didn't get nearly enough of before, namely Rocket, the crazed, gun-wielding raccoon voiced by two-time Oscar nominee Bradley Cooper. We also get a lot more Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista) and even Groot (Vin Diesel), the giant, ass-kicking tree. But there's plenty else worth getting stoked over, mostly things of the action variety. But the less I say about all that, the better. This is something worth experiencing fresh and unspoiled. So check out the full trailer below:
