Man, the tone of this movie is completely ripping off Honor Among Thieves.

They just need the hats....wait a second...HAT's? Dang, they are ALL ripping off D&D!Is it just me, or do the Guardians' new uniforms bear a striking resemblance to the Pre-Mor security uniforms in Andor?

Also, Groot hates hats.
I think they're supposed to look like the uniform that Star Lord wore in the comics Annihilation: Conquest - Starlord Vol 1 1

OK this movie is an emotional rollercoaster. I don't think I've ever cried that much during a movie before. And it wasn't all sad crying. Happy, sad, bittersweet, poignant, etc.
There's a photosensitive trigger warning at the start of the film, but there should probably be trigger warnings for animal cruelty and body horror as well. While I really enjoyed this film, I did feel that there were times where it was unnecessarily gross -- like the depiction of a person freezing to death in space, which was a lot more visceral and gross than the depictions of people freezing to death in space in the first two Guardians films.
It does a great job wrapping up the Guardians' story while still leaving the door open for some future appearances.
But yeah, prepare to be emotionally wrung dry by the time the credits roll.
Is the High Evolutionary meant to be a Kang variant? He looks and acts a bit like one, and it’s already well established that variants don’t all have to be played by the same actor.

No, The high Evolutionary is his own character and responsible for the existence of various Immortals and supers. It looks like they're sticking with the aesthetic that Jack Kirby is famous for, so there will be a pretty distinct silhouette to many characters.

Was there an alien xenomorph briefly screeching at some point? I thought I saw one, but I'm not sure.

Well Disney owns 20th Century Fox which makes the Xenomorph Queen a Disney Princess.
