For when actual emotions just don't measure up...

You already know this is going to be one of the scenes that breaks us emotionally. Probably why Gunn put it in the trailer: to prepare us.
I Do NOT Like Where This Is Headed

As soon as we got the heart swell of Baby Rocket, things turned darker in the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 trailer...
This Can't Be It... Can It?
I’m horribly terrified at what I think this is and @JamesGunn I swear to every deity of you killed Rocket, I will never forgive you. I am not nor will I ever be prepared for Rocket’s death. #GuardiansoftheGalaxyVol3 pic.twitter.com/OxDSl7W0El

Many fans are speculating that Peter Quill's pain and anguish in this moment will be over Rocket's death – leading to that final stand shootout with him and Groot back-to-back. Where they might die, too.
Rocket Is Going to Beat This!
rocket is gonna beat the death allegations trust me so stop saying he's gonna die pic.twitter.com/99DMdq3Drw

there’s no way rocket is beating the death allegations after that dialogue in the trailer 💀

Marvel fans are not at all prepared for Rocket to die – and some just refuse to believe it will happen.
Phase 5: The Death Years
This is gonna be the year of death, right? Scott, Drax, Rocket, who knows maybe something happens to Fury in Secret Invasion? I hope Loki doesn't die again...

Seems like Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was a bigger launchpad for MCU Phase 5 than we ever thought...
Stop Torturing Me With Your Whedonism!
UGH. So I'm pretty sure either Rocket, Peter, or Drax is gonna die in Guardians Vol 3 and I'm so TIRED just thinking about it. Sheesh. Death is not the only way to tell an impactful story. That's some Whedon-esque bullshit. pic.twitter.com/nbix3rFjoi

Don't know how Avengers director Joss Whedon got dragged into this, but here we are...
Marvel Comics Did This
Guardians 3 is probably going to adapt the death of Rocket storyline somehow (but he actually dies) and idk if I can handle it pic.twitter.com/dcAOwApgu0

Still want EVERYTHING to be comics accurate???
I Would've Stopped This

Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, and James Gunn should all increase their security. These fans are W I L D about Rocket!

James Gunn is extreme in all things he does in films/TV. Rocket's death will break us in the way that only the loss of a dear friend AND a lovable pet could.
