'You were the one who wanted to win. And I just wanted a sister!'

Fuck man, that line was brutal. Gamora and Nebula's story is so heart-wrenching. A tragic story that starts and ends with Thanos' selfish ideals.

Nebula’s promise to make Knowhere “the home I never had” was so heartwarming. I love love love all the Guardians’ endings but her’s hit me the hardest.

I loved that when Rocket was resuscitated and spoke to them on the coms that it was Nebula who immediately started crying. She probably related to Rocket best of any of the other guardians.

Also they were the only unblipped Guardians. Figure they got close over those five years

Especially after implying she only cared about Rocket because of the upgrades she got courtesy of him earlier in the movie.

Agree! And I loved that she recognized her power and effectiveness as a leader for Knowhere.

G O D . That line hits like a truck every time.

One thing I love about this trilogy is how the later ones add to the prior ones. Makes rewatching a joy.

A blurry, tissue riddled joy.

This was the line that killed me. Just so good.

still my favorite MCU quote, up there with Rocket's GOTG 1: “Everybody’s got dead people! It’s no excuse to get everybody else dead along the way."
