I think about this kinda stuff all the time.

Especially for something like Guardians of the Galaxy. I cant think of any specific examples off the top of my head but there are many moments where the characters talk in a very Earth like way that doesnt make any sense.

However, in that universe, our earth and humans from our world exist, right?

Same with something like Star Trek where someone quoting Shakespeare is quoting the actual Shakespeare from Earth where many of the characters are from and would have access to knowledge about Shakespeare - but in a setting like Star Wars where it's not even the same Galaxy or time frame - there's no Shakespeare to quote.
