Bautista's makeup took approximately four hours to be applied, but they were able to remove it in 90 minutes.
ROCKET RACCOON
DON'T MESS WITH THE COON! Rocket Raccoon, one of the most unique animal characters in comic book world, will get his voice from Bradley Cooper! A genetically engineered fast talking weapon loving raccoon who is an expert marksman and master tactician. He's an experiment from one part of the galaxy! The director of the film worked with real raccoons to get the feel for the character.
GROOT
SWEET AND DEADLYGroot will be voiced by Vin Diesel. Groot is a species that happens to look like trees look, and is quite communicative if you can understand the different inflections in the way he says, 'I am Groot'.

ReplyDeleteCheers .
you might even paint something blue after it :)
DeleteLee Pace would have made a very sexy Star-Lord.
ReplyDeletesadly, he got the role of Ronan and we won't see his face under the mask :(
DeleteGroot looks like a cool character!
ReplyDeletewe do like well behaved trees
DeleteAn orphan from an alien world? Let me guess.... because he is green?
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean he is a she?
Deleteshe does look like a drag a bit..... guess it ain't easy finding a good make up artist when you're travelling the universe.... unless you're Ming the Padishah.... he had such fantabulous eye shadows....
Deletethey already made cameos in the Avengers cartoon and Ultimate Spiderman cartoon. They look kinda stupid at first but it could be a cool movie.
ReplyDeletethe kids will like it, Dezzy will skip it.... we don't really do superhero flicks....
DeleteNot my thing, but I like the poster of the raccoon and Groot. LOL.
ReplyDeletethe coon does look sweet... until he starts cussing and swearing.... rotten lil' rodent.....
DeleteWhat a cast and that trailer was fun.
ReplyDeletethe second trailer sure is better than the first one was
DeleteI'm very much looking forward to this.
ReplyDeletehope it comes to Sydney this summer....
DeleteI am Groot, Groot... Groot. Groot!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the missus likes your wood.....
Deletewow... wow. ;)
DeleteWhat? These are the spy's headquarters.... :)
DeleteRocket Raccoon is adorable! Just want to hug him. Fitting, because I always think that about Bradley Cooper when I see him, too!
ReplyDeletehe is adorable until he starts cussing :)
DeleteI am so excited about this movie. Thank you for the inside look Dez. Groot and Gillan interest me especially. But my fave is Rocket. Come on, he's a raccoon!
ReplyDeletewe do love sweet little coons!
DeleteI get the feeling you iz not fond of the cussing Rocket Raccoon dahlink :)
ReplyDeleteI think this should do well at the box office this summer. Not really my cuppa but it does look like there is some humour hidden amongst the violence.
it might do well and it might not, you never know, the August usually isn't the biggest of months in cinema. This Fourth of July was also bad in cinemas
DeleteThe posters do look neat, though I don't think I am going to be catching this one. Like you, superhero flicks just aren't my thing. Until Wonder Woman comes out, I'll just pass them all by :)
ReplyDeleteyep, I watched a few, but never fell in love with them.... The only one I vaguely enjoyed was Green Lantern but that was because it wasn't a grim one and the greeness in it was gorgeous
DeleteI'll catch this if it's for free at home, but not
ReplyDeleteto go pay all that money for, at the movie house.
agreed
