Guardians Of The Galaxy director James Gunn has written a post on his Facebook page about this “win.” The director, known for his sense of humor wrote:

“This is a massive visual effects sequence that took hundreds of visual effects artists thousands of hours to put together. I can’t tell you how many dozens of times I made them redo the sequence for it to look just right – but I know we were still getting revisions hours before I boarded a plan to begin the press tour in Singapore.

I hope our heroic CGI Nova Corps members know they didn’t die in vain. Not only did they help stop their planet from being destroyed, they garnered a rather sketchy world record in the process.

RIP Garthan Saal and company.”
