Guardians of the Galaxy The Rocket Raccoon Appreciation Thread

Dalton doesn't have the right voice for Rockett. Too suave and cool. Racoon's been through some ****.

Michael Rooker could work. Bradley Whitford? Kind of a random choice.
 
Ralph Fiennes.

Star Lord - "Leave it Rocket, it's an inanimate f***** object!"
Rocket - "YOU'RE AN INANIMATE F****** OBJECT!!"
 
personally I think Dalton can do more than just suave I'd like to see what he could do with the role. He's actually pretty funny too which would def work.

I agree. I don't know why everyone wants him to sound like a Rugby playing British Thug stereotype.
 
Lol Rooker sounds like hes been through too much ****. He may have to tone down his Rookeresque voice for Rocket. Same with McShane.

Im sort of curious about the process they're using to cast Rocket. Wonder if Joss/Gunn/Marvel already has somebody - or a type of somebody - in mind for the role. Movie stars or voice actors?

I'm thinking movie stars, how many voice actors are in big budget movies nowadays? Save for Cullen as Optimus Prime, but he's different.
 
I'd love a scene where Rocket gets stared down by an enemy only for him to transform his pistols into HUGE guns.

Just like in EMH when Hulk gave Rocket a funny look right before Rocket did the exact same thing I said above.

I want Rocket to decapitate a clown. It won't happen, but that would make me so happy.
 
I want him to do anything that'll make people go, "How did they get away doing that in a PG-13 movie?"

Very cool. I really need to take the time to read the "classic" GotG stuff.
 
Rocket Raccoon is totally going to be the new Hulk to the audience.

I've read everything Warlock I can get my hands on, which means I've also read everything with Gamora and most of Drax's stuff, a little Rocket, and a little Star-Lord. Definitely worth it.
 
do we actually think RR will look like a raccoon and not soemthing a long the line of chewbacca?

Groot is more of the Chewbacca of the Guardians of the Galaxy. I'm assuming Rocket will look something like the concept art that's in my Avatar.
 
If RR was a Wookie, I'd expect that. but seeing that he is a raccoon, they better not bastardize the character and just make him what he is. Gun-Toting bad ass with a british accent. lol oh and a raccoon

Lion, Witch and Wardrobe did the whole talking animals just fine. They should look at the way that went about doing all that when it comes to RR. Add Outer Space, A Gun and a Guardians uniform and RR is easy as pie to do.
 
lol you're in rare form today kang. Love it. Looking into GotG material to read. I am a general fan but not nearly as in-depth as i'd like.
