3) Guardians of the Galaxy: Kyln Prison Break
Arguably the standout scene in a movie that is full of them, the Kyln Prison Break was the first time that we really get to see the Guardians come together as a team, and my god is it entertaining to watch. To be perfectly honest, it may be one of Marvel’s best scenes, ever.
Gamora and Drax deliver the action, as they kick-ass and take names, while the witty banter between Rocket, Groot and Quill (along with a great gag involving a fake leg) balances out all the chaos with some genuine laughter. Not only is it a wildly fun and exciting bit of cinema, but it introduces us to the Guardians as a team and almost instantly has us falling in love with them. Seriously, was anyone not rooting for these guys by the end of the prison break?
Of course, it’s all executed to perfection by director James Gunn, resulting in one of my favorite movie scenes of 2014, which is a sentiment that I’m sure many can agree with.
