Ever the advocate of communicating with fans via social media, James Gunn has taken to Twitter to share some tantalizing odds and ends regarding Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, including Groot’s seemingly impenetrable dialect, the sequel’s comprehensive soundtrack, and how the script is now all but complete.
Releasing a shotgun blast of information via his personal Twitter account, the fan-favorite director answered all manners of questions presented by fans. One of the most interesting answers to come out of the AMA session, though, was how only he and Vin Diesel know what Groot is inferring when he mutters those three famous words in different contexts.
Awesome Mix Vol. 2 is set to go; our amazing music supervisor Dave Jordan got the rights to EVERY SONG I asked for! https://t.co/Zeb6Dkco42

I’m only focused on Vol. 2 right now. I don’t know what I’m going to do afterwards. We’ll see what I feel like then. https://t.co/NXfbSS5CQo

Only Vin Diesel and I have the special Groot script with translations of what he’s saying. https://t.co/W9loN1IcJF

I’m directing exactly the movie I want to direct. Some days I can hardly believe this is all real. I’m grateful. https://t.co/tQWeyOHaGk
