I have no idea what’s really going on with this scene from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 trailer. But a lack of knowledge can’t stop me from analyzing this motion. Really, in case you haven’t look at my past blog posts this is what I like to do. Take something from a trailer and see what physics I can figure out. So, let’s do it.
