Long Lost Brothers..Reunited?

 

Are Groot from "Guardians of the Galaxy" and Station from "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey" secretly brothers?  I leave it for you to decide.

Okay at first glance I know what you are thinking.  Station is clearly a rather beaky alien hominid or two of animal origins.  Groot on the other hand is some kind of ambulatory hybrid plantlike thing.  Okay, point against them for first impressions.  These guys look nothing alike.  One clearly takes after dad, the other looks more like mom.

Delving deeper though, I think you will begin to come around to my way of thinking.

Firstly; Station is, according to lore, the most brilliant creature in the galaxy.  Whenever anyone talks to him/them though all they get is the name "Station".  The funny thing is though that people he's talking to understand what he means even though all he keeps saying is "Station".  They realize that "Station" can be everything they need to say to get their point across.  I "Station" you, dude.

Groot travels with Rocket Raccoon. When you strike up a conversation with Groot all he seems to say is "I am Groot".  However, first Rocket and then later other members of the Guardian team begin to realize the subtle nuances of  the phrase.  They start to realize when he says "I am Groot", he is really stating or asking a host of other things.

Point the second; Although not the smartest creature in the galaxy, Groot is a very thoughtful and intuitive giant plant-minid.  He is able to assess a situation and stimulate a host of biochemical changes leading to reviving stimulants, bioluminescence, active and passive defences, and even a host of offensive capabilities to protect himself and those he calls his friends.

Kind of similar to what Station was able to do with the stuff out of the back of Bill and Ted's van.  With a collateral run to the local hardware store enough pieces were put together to build good Bill and Ted androids to combat the evil ones and save the day...."Stayyshuuun"!

Thirdly; both Station and Groot, from small beginnings come big possibilities.

And.

So, setting their physical differences aside, inside Station and Groot are clearly blood/chlorophyll brothers.

In case you were still on the fence I would like to point out to you my fourth point that both Station and Groot love to dance. (Yeah, sorry I couldn't find the clip from the end of Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey where Station busts a move.  But it's there).
