Rewatch the most hilarious scene of Guardians of the Galaxy, which involves Baby Groot and the Jackson 5.
Guardians of the Galaxy has been out long enough now for Marvel and Disney to release the most unapologetically gonzo and joyful scene online, and it is still a blast.
Below fans can watch Vin Diesel’s Groot Get Groovy, compliments of Yahoo. The video also comes with a confessional like admission from actor director James Gunn about the scene.
“Baby Groot dancing is 100 percent me,” Gunn said to Yahoo. “I was too embarrassed for anyone to be there, so I made everyone leave the room and I set up a camera and I videotaped myself dancing. Then I sent the video to the animators and had them animate over that. I begged them not to leak the video! Two of my closest friends came to an early screening and said ‘Hey, I recognize those moves! That’s you dancing isn’t it?!’”
We suspect Groot will be back to fighting size for 2017’s Guardians of the Galaxy 2, but like the Jackson 5, we want Baby Groot Back. Maybe he’ll learn his ABCs next time, as well?
