Groot actor Vin Diesel has addressed his character’s surprising final line in ę¾³ę“²å¹øčæ5å¼å„å·ē åå²ę„čÆ¢:Guardians of the Galaxy 3.
"It was very coš°ol, because the audience was now able to understand tšhe vernacular, the language of this flora colossus," Vin Diesel told referring to the moment in the Guardians of the Galaxy 3 ending that saw Groot say "I love you guys" instead of "I Am Groot."

To have to wait that long for someone just saying three monosyllabic words… [it’s] like everything in life: patience and dedication."
