While we disagreed on who was No.
1, we did agree that it definitely wasnt Star-Lord.
Read on below to find out the outcome.

My pick for No.
Dana, in your opinion, which Guardian is best?
(I swear to god if you say Baby Groot…)
DANA SCHWARTZ:You know, what?
Everett Collection
Ill shake things up and go with Groot, Sr.
Literally no other member of the team would have been selfless enough to LITERALLY DIE for the group.
And hes the most mysterious.

CHANCELLOR:Okay, thats definitely fair, especially about the selfless part.
Its like, I get it, youre sarcastic and a smart aleck.
Is there anything else to you?
Dana, why didnt Peter make it as your No.
Also, who is your second favorite Guardian, and why?
He is a good dancer, I will give him that.
I hate to be boring, but Gamora is my No.
2 mostly because at least with Thanos she gets an interesting backstory.
Drax (Dave Bautista) is so boring.
I dont even think his shtick is funny.
Why is Drax in this movie?
So, Im actually quite torn about Drax.
On the one hand, I still think the schtick is funny, especially this time around.
Why would I put my finger on his throat?
Nothing goes over my head.
My reflexes are too fast.
I would catch it, and several other lines still made me chuckle.
I think Draxs literal-mindedness makes him very endearing.
In the end, Id rank him as my fourth favorite Guardian.
3 spot obviously has to go to the prosthetics-obsessed Rocket (Groot is my second favorite).
Where does Rocket rank for you?
DANA:I think my order goes Groot, Gamora, Rocket, then Starlord, then Drax.
I know Im supposed to find him funny, but Rocket really has never made me laugh.
His one redeeming quality is how much he loves and protects Groot, which is my favorite thing.
I maybe want the whole team to be just them?
Riding around and solving mysteries?
How is there not a Rocket/Groot prequel show?
And you know what?
Screw the TV show and just make the nextGuardians of the Galaxymovie about them.
Why couldnt they have used him more?
Why is his character so boring and forgettable?
First, his motivation is very bland, and thus forgettable.
I completely forgot that he was intent on blowing up Xandar because of some treaty or whatever.
Next Week:Chancellor and EWs Christian Holub tackleAvengers: Age of Ultron.
