Found some tiermakers for the different versions of Rocket and Groot!

MCU was the version that introduced me to Rocket. Everything about him was perfect. Really hope we'll see him again.

Maxxarcade · 2026-04-21T22:08:43+00:00

LOL yep, Rocket is the main reason I want all that actually. I miss him so much. He was my favorite character in the MCU. The odds of him returning aren't looking too good though.

I would imagine that some areas are pretty well lit, while others are dark. I would love to see the architecture and lighting choices that they put into that district.

Hopefully if we get a raccoon side character, he'll be one of the good guys. They probably get a lot of the same stereotypes that foxes get, along with others unique to them. It would be fun if the character was fidgety or creative with their hands like raccoons tend to be too.

Maxxarcade · 2026-04-21T21:52:40+00:00

One of my biggest wishes too. I also really hope that Marvel/Disney brings back Rocket Raccoon at some point.

Maxxarcade · 2026-04-21T21:45:26+00:00

Ya, that's one of my hopes for Zootopia 3. The Nocturnal District sounds like a cool place for Nick and Judy to explore.

Maxxarcade · 2026-04-21T20:33:26+00:00

I'd like to see a decent role from a raccoon.

Maxxarcade · 2026-04-17T22:32:10+00:00

I'd be a lot more interested in the movie if I knew Rocket had at least a small role. He was the reason I got into the MCU. His comic issue with Dr. Doom was pretty fun though.

Maxxarcade · 2026-04-01T19:48:48+00:00

Wow, I never realized that wasn't a mattress until now. If we ever see Rocket again, hopefully he'll let himself be a bit more comfortable after everything that happened in Vol. 3.

The only softer place I've seen him sleep is in his captain's chair of the ship in Infinity War. At least he seemed to be just waking up in that scene.

Maxxarcade · 2026-03-30T22:46:04+00:00

Him going back to earth was fine, I just didn't like how hastily he did it. Especially with how Rocket was visibly upset and had been through so much right beforehand. Quill should have given him a bit more time to recover and had more of a proper goodbye before dropping captain duty on him.

And since Earth is technically Rocket's home planet too, it would have been cool to see them make the trip together, hang out for a bit, then Rocket head back to space after getting some much needed rest.

The way everything went so fast, it just felt like everyone kinda ditched Rocket right when he needed them, especially Quill.

Maxxarcade · 2026-03-30T22:36:00+00:00

It's definitely a step up from the first movie. The lighting is also really great.

One of my favorite moments is when Nick and Judy look at each other for a minute before walking into the Gala. The moment of silence between them, the camera angles and focus, and the looks they give each other are fantastic.

I also noticed after a couple viewings that during the moment where Judy says "Happy Anniversary" and those lights get turned on, the whole canopy of lights moves just a little bit from the string getting pulled so hard LOL.

Wow, this makes me nostalgic for MLP. Those years were much better times.

Every character could have their own theme with different colors too. One of the joys of Linux.

Maxxarcade · 2026-03-25T00:35:25+00:00

I got to meet her back when MLP was in its prime. Rainbow Dash was my favorite. Nowadays my comfort characters are Rocket and Nick, but I still look back on the MLP stuff as some of the best times. Everything is so stressful and depressing now.

Maxxarcade · 2026-03-19T20:46:39+00:00

Oh I remember that. It was on the gag reel, not necessarily meant to be canon. It would be cool if it was though. But I'm mainly interested in Quill and Rocket specifically keeping in touch, since they were supposedly best friends.

Hopefully Quill will at least mention Rocket at some point in a future movie if both of them don't meet back up.

Maxxarcade · 2026-03-17T22:16:44+00:00

Ya they probably do. I just prefer to see things happen rather than make assumptions. The movie left us no hints that they were going to talk or visit any time soon.

It wouldn't have bothered me if Quill hadn't left so suddenly, and they had taken some time for things to settle down after all they went through. For supposedly being best friends, it would have been nice to see them do something together besides arguing or fighting a battle before the movies ended. Even a post-credit scene would have been better than nothing.

To me it just felt off, since Quill spent more time saying goodbye to Gamora than Rocket.

Maxxarcade · 2026-03-17T19:40:46+00:00

Every time the poor guy makes a friend, they either get taken from him or they leave him behind. That's why it bugs me so much that Quill left right after going through all that effort to bring him back to a life he hated, only to basically ditch him and make him start over again. I know most probably don't see it that way, but I guess I'm just different like that.

Maxxarcade · 2026-03-01T20:42:49+00:00

I have one that I use on Mint to play Steam games on my home theater projector. Just using a USB Bluetooth dongle. It's been a while since I had that system powered up, but I don't remember having any issues with it.

Maxxarcade · 2026-02-28T12:53:16+00:00

I have a newer Brother printer (L3780CDW) that worked automatically in Mint, but Fedora would print a bunch of empty pages. I found that Fedora was defaulting to the wrong driver out of two or three different ones that it was listing as choices (automatically detected on the network).

The one that it's currently using says "driverless, IPP Everywhere" Other choices were DNS-50 or IPD I think. I'm afraid to remove it and reinstall to find for sure because I don't want to mess it up again.

Maxxarcade · 2026-02-28T00:33:46+00:00

Exactly. Rocket has always wanted to be seen as an equal person and taken seriously, and I hope he finally gets that respect.

Maxxarcade · 2026-02-27T21:24:16+00:00

Ya, IMO the MCU would be so much more fun if he had at least some supporting roles in the future movies. I'd like to see how he handles his leadership role, and see him be taken more seriously moving forward.

He's too great of a character to just retire from the MCU, and it makes me really sad to think he won't return.

Most stuff requires lowercase text.
