Rocko’s Modern Life: Static Cling is coming!

Posted 23 July 2018

This was announced at San Diego Comic Con 2017 (last year). It’s never too late to share my views about this.

After being in space for about 20 years (based on last episode, Future Schlock), Rocko, Heffer, and Filburt return to Earth only to find society has changed heavily. O-Town looks more futuristic. The rapid changes that happened during the passing decades scare Rocko.

I’m going to make this review as brief as I can. I think it’s rather sweet how Nickelodeon still acknowledges Rocko as part of its past. Judging from watching the trailer, though visibly digitized, the animation stayed true to the old show. When I first found out about this movie, in my mind I pictured a Rocko movie with really a cheesy CGI overkill. Though not the same feel as the old animation, the animation is still good enough to make me smile for nostalgia.

I also think it’s neat how the original voice actors returned (Carlos Alazraqui as Rocko, Tom Kenny as Heffer, Mr. Lawrence as Filburt, and Charlie Adler as Mr. and Mrs Bighead). Hearing their voices on the trailer, they sound like they never left the show.

I can’t wait for this movie to come out! I’m sure it will be a delight to watch because I seen many eps and I expect the same level of quality from this movie. Now, when is it coming out?
