The Rocket Raccoon Appreciation Thread

You knew it was coming.

It's everyone's favorite (and probably only) wise talking raccoon. Who do you think should voice Rocket Raccoon in the upcoming movie? Here's the concept of Rocket Raccoon from the Marvel panel along with the other team members.

I always imagined his voice to be a sort of lighter (and younger) version of an angry Rutger Hauer. I dont think any kind of british cockney or alike would suit. Michael Ironside is also on my list

The fact that I am getting a movie with Rocket Raccoon...it just blows my mind. I cannot wait for this.

anyone seen this yet

Chewy · 07-18-2012, 04:22 PM

Someone suggested Jason Statham and I think that's pretty bloody perfect

My other choice is Ian McShane

Eddie Dean · 07-18-2012, 05:13 PM

Bob Hoskins, baby.

Colossal Spoons · 07-18-2012, 05:15 PM

Statham would be awesome!

Son of Coul · 07-18-2012, 05:50 PM

Holy ****, I'd kill to see Statham as an ultra-violent talking raccoon. Awesome suggestion to whoever thought of that.

Darthphere · 07-18-2012, 05:55 PM

Ed Asner.

dopemaster · 07-18-2012, 06:10 PM

Ian McShanewould be amazing!

louiebling$ · 07-18-2012, 06:13 PM

seriously..when i first read the suggestion, i literally froze for a few seconds..lol. It was one of the better "holy ****.....that's perfect" moments i've had. I had my heart set on Andy Serkis because of his Mo-Cap proficiency but Statham would be awesome.

PWN3R · 07-18-2012, 06:26 PM

Just thinking of this guy interacting with RDJ makes me cream.

I want it to happen so much it hurts

louiebling$ · 07-18-2012, 07:41 PM

Dammit..... Now if they cast anyone else I'm gonna hate it

Darthphere · 07-18-2012, 07:43 PM

What if they put Peter Dinklage in an Ewok costume?

SuperFerret · 07-18-2012, 07:45 PM

I would enjoy it greatly.

Chewy · 07-18-2012, 07:46 PM

That would be one badass Ewok

Serkis could do the co-cap, while Statham does the voice.

Rocket Raccoon is cool.

Oberon sexton · 07-19-2012, 12:21 AM

I'd love for Ray Winstone to voice (and mo-cap) Rocky.

Spider-Vader · 07-19-2012, 02:09 AM

Jason Statham would be awesome, but I'd die if they just got Greg Ellis back. He'd be cheaper too.
