Tiffany: "You're flying to L.A. on December 18? So am I! See?" Quill: "We're on the same flight..." Tiffany: "We can travel together, Quill!" Quill: "What are the odds..." Tiffany: "IT's like a MOVIE! What FUN!" Crystal: "Enjoying this movie?" Luann: "No. It's totally unreal"
Actually. Greg never said Pitts is near San Diego. It’s supposed to be a typical American suburb, and Greg has never given anyone GPS coordinates. (I happen to know it’s right next to Riverdale, but I digress.).The cast shows up at ComicCon, natch, so more literal readers have decided that around SD is its locale. But it’s been demonstrated over and over again that “reality” only intrudes when it serves a purpose. Most of the time real world actions or “rules” are pretty inconsistent– that’s cuz it’s a comic. Seriously, who carries around their plane tickets a month before the flight? Who even has paper plane tickets these days, let alone ones as big as a menu? Reality will make you crazy here if you insist on applying it consistently..Pitts is as far from LA on any given day as Greg wants it to be.
