By some measures, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is on the “more intense” end of the Walt Disney World roller coaster spectrum, but it's not intense by real world roller coaster standards.

Depends on how you characterize intensity. Everest it's more bumpy and jerky, with stronger physical forces exerted. Guardians is much smoother, but much more disorienting in the dark with the screens and spinning. Guardians is more intense BY FAR.
There are some small pops of airtime, that butterflies-in-your-stomach, out-of-your-seat sensation. But they are not especially intense. There are also a few elements that deliver positive G-forces, the feeling of being pinned to the seat. Again, these forces are not particularly extreme.
Which seats are the best? If you're concerned about Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind being too intense, request one of the first two rows. That's the least thrilling and jarring. If you want the best seat from a storytelling perspective, anywhere in the middle is going to be ideal.
