it’s really nice to have friends

I just realized why Rocket gets so pissed at Drax for nearly getting them all killed for revenge in volume 1

He blames himself for not taking Floor and Teefs and just running after Lylla got shot.

"That's no excuse to get everyone else dead along the way" he says, recalling that when he took revenge for one friend it led to two more dying.

remember how we thought black widow (2021) was going to be the darkest mcu movie, but then after the really well-done opening credits montage, the movie stopped being dark, and then two years later, a silly little Guardians of the Galaxy movie ended up being the movie where every person I’ve talked to said that they were deeply upset by it and they cried 6 times and that it was the most beautiful marvel movie in years and 100% the darkest movie that the mcu has ever made and was surprisingly gory and had the mcu’s first f-bomb and i even openly wept in a movie theater for the first time since avengers: endgame and there were points where i could just hear everyone crying and

I think the most horrible part of batch 89 is how impractical they are. What possible purpose could you wish to achieve from surgically grafting wheels to a walrus or implanting a steel muzzle into a rabbits face? It's just pure sadism. Cruelty for the sake of cruelty. And it's horrifying.

You know what else plays into the sadness of Rocket's backstory?

That he is so small.

He seems so innocent, so pure, so fragile, so open... completely not like the Rocket we know from the previous movies that is strong but also cynical and closed-off. And this small, innocent Rocket is lied to, abused and lost. He attacks only when he's enraged and full of despair.

It's probably a cliche, but Rocket's innocence probably died alongside with Lylla, Teefs and Floor.

This scene from the first movie is so much more emotional after watching the 3rd one. Notice how Rocket flinches for a split second when Drax pets him? It probably was the first physical affection he has received ever since the hug Lyla gave him, before she was shot dead. With all the aggression and roughness he has build up as self protection, nobody ever dared touch him and this is the first time he has opened up, letting his true emotions show and being vulnerable. And instead of laughing about him like the high evolutionary did after (supposedly this time) losing a friend, no, Drax goes up to him and comforts him. It must have been this moment for Rocket where he realized, that these people genuinely cared for him and he could trust them

Rocket: *is extremely entertained by the separation of people from their mechanical prostheses, laughs his ass off every time*

also Rocket: *grew up surrounded by friends with cybernetic enhancements that could not be removed, has intrinsic mechanical parts himself, is likely so amused and delighted because the concept of separating the biological and the biomechanical is deeply strange and surprising to him (because he couldn't take them out if he wanted to)*

Nebula: *goes to great lengths to get Rocket Bucky's metal arm for Christmas because she--more than anyone--understands and relates to this (as someone who also feels more machine than person and marvels at separated prostheses and how people can endure without them)*

So we all know the last shots of vol 2 and vol 3 being of Rocket is significant to him being the stealth protagonist of the trilogy, but what if I told you that even the vol 1 final shot centers his story?

Because it's of him and his friends flying away together.

Into the forever and beautiful sky.

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL.3 SPOILERS:

The scene where Lylla, Floor, and Teefs die is just so gut wrenching, and SOO well done and I need to talk about it because even though there’s a thousand screaming-after-someone-dies scenes out there, this feels different. it isn’t just another typical slow motion 😱NOOOooooOo!! Rocket is just a baby and so are Lylla and Teefs and Floor. Rocket does not know what to do. He just stands there, paralyzed by horror and this insane, sudden loss. After a moment all he can do is just stand there and scream. Because what else can he do. It feels so raw. He’s just a little baby and he’s horrified and heartbroken and he’s just mocked for it. Good job, Bradley Cooper and everyone else who was a part of making this scene. Incredible scene. I have never hated a villain the way I hate the High Evolutionary.

Justice for Teefs 😭🖤

Even more from The Art of the Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3.

They did Rocket dirty in the last one. He looks like he's melting 😂😭
