After tarnishing our memories Disney classics with their sendup of the Avengers: Age of Ultron trailer, the folks at How It Should Have Ended have turned to Guardians of the Galaxy, offering some alternative takes that probably would've complicated Marvel's plans for a 2017 sequel.

In the process, however, the video also addresses the blockbuster's burning question: What's with Thanos and that chair? As a bonus, there's also a war of words between Baby Groot and Batman that goes ... well, pretty much as you'd expect.

The treatment even gets a thumbs up from Guardians director James Gunn, who writes, "I love these. Having a How It Should Have Ended is better than winning an Oscar."
