Disney today released an adorable Guardians of the Galaxy “As Told By Emoji” episode, part of a digital series that retells classic Disney (and Marvel) stories in the language of a new generation: Emojis.
To celebrate Marvel Studios Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2, fans can catch up on the original blockbuster that skyrocketed Chris Pratt to superhero famedom. In the newest creative retelling from Disney:
-
An emoji-fied Star-Lord sells the Infinity Stone on Marvel Universe’s version of Craigslist, Xadarlist; and Baby Groot ends the episode with an adorable dance party.
-
The episode is also peppered with pop culture references like “SRSLY owl” and “Confused Jackie Chan” memes to tell the Guardians of the Galaxy narrative in a way like never before.
