‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ Is Called What In China?

Every week, American movies get an overseas release. The country usually changes the title if the translation doesn’t quite work in the native tongue.

For example, Deep Impact became Earth and Comet Collide, Free Willy was changed to A Very Powerful Whale Runs to Heaven and Boogie Nights was saddled with the hilarious translation of His Great Device Makes Him Famous.

Guardians of the Galaxy is opening in China this week and director James Gunn tweeted out the movie poster along with the hilarious title change for Chinese audiences.

So many questions that can only be answered by seeing Interplanetary Unusual Attacking Team in theaters!
