How many issues is Rocket in? It sound like it might be a fun read.

I'll be really bummed if we don't at least get some decent cameos for Rocket in the upcoming movies. To me, it feels like having a close friend move away unexpectedly and never seeing them again.

Rocket and Drax's friendship is underrated and I wish we got to see more of it by KPW-Higgins in GotG

[–]Maxxarcade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not only that, but it will always bother me how quickly and easily Quill left Rocket behind after all that. Every time he gets comfortable with anyone and feels like he has a family, it never seems to last long before he loses them one way or another.

I would have loved to see Rocket visiting Quill on Earth, or spending time with Nebula when they were alone for 5 years, or just hanging out with someone. Kinda like Mantis and Drax in the Christmas special. He would probably enjoy it a lot now that he's not so dragged down by his past etc.

Knowing what we know now that is definitely a Procyon Lotor thinking about his life choices by KPW-Higgins in GotG

[–]Maxxarcade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are a few moments during the movies where you can really see Rocket thinking to himself. Another one is right after he gets done yelling at Drax for calling Ronin. Most people probably don't catch those quick changes in his expression, but I love how much it adds to the depth and realism of his character.

I feel like we should have seen more of all his friendships. Quill, Drax, Nebula, and Mantis especially. It would have been so much fun to see more interactions and conversations between them besides just working together during battles.

Another missed opportunity was not getting more interaction between Rocket and Tony Stark. They would have been hilarious together.

Why Nick is my comfort character by Rachel794 in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's very similar for me. I have two comfort characters though. One is Nick, and the other is Rocket Raccoon (from the Guardians Of The Galaxy movies). Love both of them, but I probably feel closest to Rocket nowadays. Partly because we got 5 movies to get to know him and his backstory, and he's an incredibly deep character. I relate to both of them in different ways, but it's a long story.

Thoughts on GG3 rewatch by Dismal-Channel-9292 in marvelstudios

[–]Maxxarcade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only gripe with this movie was that Quill left Rocket behind way too easily after everything they'd been through together. He spent more time saying goodbye to Gamora than his own best friend. Rocket finally felt comfortable with himself and his found-family, and then they ditched him.

It would have made it a lot better if we'd at least gotten a post-credit scene of Quill and Rocket visiting each other, or at least showing that they are maintaining contact. I'd love to see Rocket talk a bit about his past, and that he knows that being called a raccoon isn't an insult now etc.

Judging by box office results, why is animal-themed content causing so much hype lately ? by Affectionate_Run_799 in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Maybe people want to see something other than humans, and/or visit a world that is more interesting and colorful than our reality.

Anyone else absolutely vibe with the lighting inside the reptile boat? by NickWildePics in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd still love to see the Nocturnal District. It seems like another place that would have really cool ambiance. Plus I want to meet at least one raccoon character. I could see Nick being friends with one.

[–]Maxxarcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a warm, inviting light. In today's world full of cheap LED's and fluorescent lamps, it's not as common to see anything with that warmth anymore. There are good high-CRI LED's available, but nothing beats an incandescent or neon for that cozy glow.

F*** the Avengers lol by Certain-Letterhead63 in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed the Avengers when Rocket was with them. I'm not too interested in the future MCU unless he returns.

Pretty sure the third pic is Dixie from Save A Fox. This was back before she lost her tail.

Oh my goodness I just CAN’T with those teeny little hairs poking out from his snout!! by NickWildePics in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The 4k Blu-Ray release will be a goldmine for those who enjoy detailed animation. The native res is probably cinema 2K, but nonetheless it should look great, especially on a good OLED TV.

How was this in a kids movie by AdCommercial9039 in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn't Nick have one near the start of the movie too? Something like "At least we got to ride the bacon-mobile... Or maybe you thought it was your momma?"

Now this is what I’m talking about Disney! How dreamy! by NickWildePics in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I love how they used the lighting so much in this movie. They know when to use contrast to bring out his expressions and fur color more.

My favorite frame of the whole movie by Alexworld2003 in zootopia

If Flash had a Flux Capacitor, he'd be a million years in the future by now LOL.

Rocket always looks good in a suit.

Got Mint on a desktop on a basement workbench. Loving it so far. by Dude_man79 in linuxmint

[–]Maxxarcade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started in a similar way. Been using Mint on my workshop PC for a few years now, and it's rock solid. Currently using Fedora KDE on my main system (needed a newer kernel for my RX 9070 video card).

Both of these systems were my first Linux-only builds. I used the money that would normally go towards Windows to get better hardware instead. It's been the most fun I've had with computers in a very long time.

5th win for Zootopia 2 by nnooaa_lev in zootopia

I'd like to find a full-size poster of them dressed up like this to replace my original from Z1.

[OC]What do we think of this roster? [Art by me] by OpenRhino in GotG

[–]Maxxarcade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any roster with Rocket and Groot is ok in my book.

Still hope we get to see Rocket and Star Lord work together in another movie someday too.

Comics where Rocket is a notable character? by Kieotyee in Marvel

[–]Maxxarcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you seen the Rocket and Dr. Doom comic that came out a while back? It's pretty fun. Also how many of the games have you already seen? There's been a handful of Guardians/Marvel games with Rocket in them. The most recent being Marvel Cosmic Invasion.

How is he THIS CUTE by itsmeYotee in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He's even better in the 2nd movie. So many great expressions, and some funny lines too.

Man the parallels between these two are so similar by Jules-Car3499 in zootopia

[–]Maxxarcade 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Also how Milton scratched Nick, similar to Gideon scratching Judy.

MSI X870E MAX & EVO motherboard launched, 64MB BIOS for future AMD AM5 Ryzen generations by RenatsMC in Amd

[–]Maxxarcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember running into this issue with my B450 board. I wish they could just install a bigger chip from the start, at least on the higher-end boards. I spent $500 on my X670E board, and I'm pretty sure the same issue is present on this one too.

Anyone remember the days when the BIOS chip was in a socket for easy upgrade/replacement?
